EcoSpold 2 intermediate exchange, ID = 6047c525-49b7-4a7d-baf6-a61283e5eda9 'hazardous waste, for underground deposit' is a solid waste under the category of industrial wastes. It can be sourced in many and various ways and therefore it can belong in all waste categories (commercial and institutional, industrial and construction and demolition). It is primarily generated in a wide range of activities in different sectors. 'hazardous waste, for underground deposit' contain the following fractions: 100% inert waste meant for underground deposit. Due to lack of data, the composition of this waste is approximated with the known fraction of the municipal solid waste incineration residues. By the database default (and per unit of reference product),'hazardous waste, for underground deposit' has 0% water on wet mass basis (100% dry matter) and Carbon present is of only fossil origin (55.47% on a dry matter basis). It has no heating value. This kind of by-product (recyclable or waste) is generated from ordinary transforming activities, and as such can be considered for modelling waste outputs of comparable composition. In the ecoinvent database, treatment option/s for this by-product include: deposition (underground deposit). Based on the aforementioned treatments, this by-product receives, it is a hazardous waste. This by-product can be modelled on two levels: treatment activity and market activity. The former one refers to the specific technology treating the by-product while the latter level represents a mix of treatments. Users are encouraged to inspect the modelling assumptions of the treatment activities and when selecting the market to additionally inspect the treatment mix. Collection and transportation of this by-product is accounted in the respective market activity, users are advised to inspect and modify the average transportation distances for a case specific modelling.
