Magnesium production

[edit / update model]
The category business/processes/production/magnesium contains data and methodologies for calculating greenhouse gas emissions associated with magnesium production. See the appropriate subcategories for further details.

Primary magnesium production

The category business/processes/production/magnesium/primaryproduction contains a methodology based on default emission factors for use in situations where facility or site-specific data is not available and represents the Tier 1 (default values) and Tier 2 (facility- or country-specific values) approaches described by the IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (NGGIP).

Casting processes

The category business/processes/production/magnesium/castingprocess contains a methodology for calculating SF6 emissions from the magnesium casting process segment. The methodology provided by this category represents the Tier 1 (default values) and Tier 2 (facility- or country-specific values) approaches described by the IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (NGGIP).
