Name
PFC
Technical purpose of product or process Pocket filters for the separation of coarse dust Filter group ISO Coarse (coarse dust filter)Performance tested to ISO 16890. Prefilters in ventilation and air conditioning systems. For more information see: https://www.trox.de/en/pocket-filters-made-of-non-woven-chemical-fibres/pfc-32362946d8b4e105 Pocket filters PFC made of non-woven chemical fibres for the separation of coarse dust when used as a prefilter, and for the separation of fine dust when used as a prefilter or final filter in ventilation systems. Filter pockets provide a high dust holding capacity at a low initial differential pressure. Pocket filters made of non-woven chemical fibres are available in standard and special sizes; variable number of pockets and pocket depth; filter group ISO Coarse according to ISO 16890. Pocket filters PFC are compliant with VDI 6022 in terms of hygiene. This EPD declares the environmental data of the product series PFC. The following represents a representative dataset of the default variant PFC-Coarse-60%-PLA-25/592x592x360x6.

General comment on data set Data quality: 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. Allocation: The allocation is made in accordance with the provisions of EN 15804. Energy, 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. Cut-off criteria: 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.
