Key Data Set Information
Location NO
Geographical representativeness description Norway
Reference year 2024
Name
Biokalk 75
Use advice for data set The system includes the production of raw materials, like stone and additives (module A1), the transport of these materials with ship (module A2), the manufacturing of Biokalk 75 (module A3), and its distribution to clients (module A4).
Technical purpose of product or process Biokalk 75 is a dust free liquid suspension of liming material. Adding Biokalk 75 improves availability of mineral nutrients of the manure. Biokalk 75 reduces the risks of pollution of groundwater and rivers by nitrates and phosphates. Biokalk 75 also decreases air pollutants and nauseating smells, and reduces nitrogen monoxide emissions, which contributes to the greenhouse effect. High-quality, natural mineral to condition and enrich crop soil. Biokalk 75 is produced to guarantee screen specifications that meet agriculture requirements.

General comment on data set Specific data for the product composition are provided by the manufacturer. The data represent the production of the declared product and were collected for EPD development in the year of study. Background data is based on EPDs according to EN 15804 and different LCA databases. The data quality of the raw materials in A1 is presented in the table below. Specific data for the product composition are provided by the manufacturer. The data represent the production of the declared product and were collected for EPD development in the year of study. Background data is based on EPDs according to EN 15804 and different LCA databases. The data quality of the raw materials in A1 is presented in the table below. The allocation is made in accordance with the provisions of EN 15804. Incoming energy and water and waste production in-house is allocated equally among all products through mass allocation. Effects of primary production of recycled materials is allocated to the main product in which the material was used. The recycling process and transportation of the material is allocated to this analysis. The impacts of stone extraction are allocated among the many products manufactured by Omya Hustadmarmor AS. The impacts of stone extraction are allocated among the many products manufactured by Omya Hustadmarmor AS. All major raw materials and all the essential energy is included. The production processes for raw materials and energy flows with very small amounts (less than 1%) are not included. These cut-off criteria do not apply for hazardous materials and substances.

1This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuel cycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor due to radioactive waste disposal in underground facilities. Potential ionizing radiation from the soil, from radon and from some construction materials is also not measured by this indicator.
2The results of this environmental impact indicator shall be used with care as the uncertainties on these results are high or as there is limited experiences with the indicator.
