Leather finishing, 1 drum operation (dyeing, waterproofing or fatliquoring)
1.3
Description
This dataset covers 1 post-tanning operation excluding painting and surface treatment. Operations inlcude dyeing, waterproofing, or fatliquoring applied to a tanned hide. Waste water emissions represent average conditions, i.e. waste water quality after treatment in a wastewater treatment plant with average removel efficiencies.
The data set covers all relevant process steps / technologies over the supply chain of the represented partly aggregated cradle to gate inventory with a good overall data quality. The inventory is mainly based on industry data and is completed, where necessary, by secondary data. This data set is based on primary data from internationally adopted production processes, connected with regional precursor chains.
