Operation, VCM freight ship {AU} |_obsolete | AusLCI, U
Unit process Australia v00.00.000
Included processes:Process begins with the input of heavy fuel oil. Process ends with the output of VCM shippiong operation. Remark: The process was orginally from ecoinvent but was modifed with the fuel use data forVCM transport . Geography: Refers to an average production in the Australia. Technology: Average Time period: Data collected for 2012 Version: 1.15 Record: Data entry by: Tim Grant Telephone: 0061 408104977; E-mail: tim@lifecycles.com.au; Company: LCS; Country: AU Generator: Generator/publicator: Michael Spielmann Telephone: 0041 44 632 49 83; E-mail: eth.uns@ecoinvent.org; Company: ETH-UNS; Country: CH
