elementary flow chemical related

Question

hello, I'm myeongjukim

I'm using ecoinvent database and I can't find the product flow for the chemicals I want, how can I replace it? And if I want to replace it with another chemical, what criteria should I use (chemical, organic flow)?

Answer 1

elementary flow or product flow? ecoinvent is quite comprehensive but by far not complete, so it is well possible that you do not find exactly what you need -> you can use a proxy (chemicals, organic, e.g, if you are looking for an organic chemical), or model yourself of course, if you have access to some details regarding production, for a product flow.

Hope this helps,

Andreas
