Ammonium nitrate phosphate {AU}| market for ammonium nitrate phosphate | AusLCI, U

Unit process Australia v00.00.000

This data have been copied from the ecoinvent version 2.2 database and adapted to Australsian database by substituting input flows from AusLCI database for ecoinvent processes where they are available. Because of the ecoinvent detail included in this data in is subject to the same copyright and distribution restrictions as the ecoivent database published in SimaPro. See system description for more detail on the substitution. Translated name: Ammoniumnitratphosphat, als P2O5, ab Regionallager Included processes: The unit process inventory takes into account the production of ammonium nitrate phosphate from ammonia and rock phosphate. Transports of raw materials and intermediate products to the fertiliser plant as well as the transport of the fertiliser product from the factory to the regional department store were included. Production and waste treatment of catalysts, coating and packaging of the final fertiliser products were not included. Infrastructure was included by means of a proxy module. Remark:Remark: Non-reviewed AusLCI data point based on small contribution of this process to final results. Refers to 1 kg ammonium nitrate phosphate with a N-content of 8.4% and a P2O5-content of 52.0%. Made by recombining two ecoinvent processes which seperate N and P2O5 componants. CAS number: 057608-40-9; Formula: NH4NO3*Ca(H2PO4)2; Geography: According to the reference of this inventory, the European average is derived from mean values of several fertiliser plants within Europe. The production of raw materials and/or intermediates outside Europe was taken into account by considering the production technology in the respective country and the relative import shares. Technology: Production inventory was derived from detailed literature studies and specifications from the manufacturer, relevant for the European production. Transport specifications of the fertiliser product to the regional department store, which were not included in the reference used for this inventory, were complemented by data given in Patyk & Reinhardt (1997). Time period: Year when the principal reference used for this inventory was published.

Sampling procedure
Sampling procedure: Values given in the reference originate from manufacturers and/or other data sources which in turn refer to the real situation and hence are largely secured. However, the emissions factors may be somewhat uncertain. When no information on the speciation of N- and P emissions was given in the reference, the most likely speciation based on expert's opinion is presented.
