Non electric detonators (RIONEL LP 16 (7,8m))
Technical purpose of product or process The RIONEL F LP series has been designed for use in underground mining and tunneling, both in nonflammable environments. The delays of the RIONEL F LP series are longer than those of the RIONEL F MS series and are used in confined underground blasting where longer delays are required. Each series includes different products and each one can be commercialized in different lengths. After production the detonators are transported to customer in Sweden. In this EPD, the declared products contained the following substances:

General comment on data set Data has been collected in 2018 and is representative of that year. Data for raw material supply, transport to fabrication plant and production of detonator (A1-A3) is based on specific consumption data for the factory at Galdakao. Detonation of the detonator has been calculated from a balanced chemical reaction, at final state and 1 bar using proprietary software called DETCOM. Generic data is from Ecoinvent v3.5 (November 2018), Allocation, Cut off and SimaPro v 9.0.0.41. Characterization factors from EN15804: 2012 + A1: 2013 (CML August 2016). The allocation is made in accordance with the provisions of EN 15804. Diesel and lubricant for transport machinery and output waste production have been allocated among all products fabricated at MAXAM through economic allocation. All major raw materials and all the essential energy is included. The production process for raw materials and energy flows that are included with very small amounts (<1%) are not included. This cut-off rule does not apply for hazardous materials and substances.
