Comment: This is a market activity. Each market represents the consumption mix of a product in a given geography, connecting suppliers with consumers of the same product in the same geographical area. Markets group the producers and also the imports of the product (if relevant) within the same geographical area. They also account for transport to the consumer and for the losses during that process, when relevant. This dataset represents the supply of 1 kg of xylene from activities that produce it within the geography RER. A regional market for Europe [RER] is motivated by the low share (in the range of 0.2%-10.8% of total trade quantities between 2010-2016) of import quantities to EU28 from outside (excluding Norway and Switzerland) the Union. In addition, exported quantities generally exceeded import in the same period. Source: Eurostat database, EU trade since 1988 by HS6 (DS-016893), HS6-code: 290244 - MIXED XYLENE ISOMERS, Assessed on: 2017-11-28. The transport amounts are based on eurostat transport statistics for 2016 (http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/data/database, extracted on the 2018-06-01). See exchange comments for additional details. This market is supplied by the following activities with the given share: xylene production, RER: 1.0 generalComment of xylene production (RER): Data are derived from the Eco-profiles of the European plastics industry (PlasticsEurope). Not included are the values reported for: recyclable wastes, amount of air / N2 / O2 consumed, unspecified metal emission to air and to water, mercaptan emission to air, unspecified CFC/HCFC emission to air, dioxin to water. The amount of "sulphur (bonded)" is assumed to be included into the amount of raw oil. [This dataset was already contained in the ecoinvent database version 2. It was not individually updated during the transfer to ecoinvent version 3. Life Cycle Impact Assessment results may still have changed, as they are affected by changes in the supply chain, i.e. in other datasets. This dataset was generated following the ecoinvent quality guidelines for version 2. It may have been subject to central changes described in the ecoinvent version 3 change report (http://www.ecoinvent.org/database/ecoinvent-version-3/reports-of-changes/), and the results of the central updates were reviewed extensively. The changes added e.g. consistent water flows and other information throughout the database. The documentation of this dataset can be found in the ecoinvent reports of version 2, which are still available via the ecoinvent website. The change report linked above covers all central changes that were made during the conversion process.]
