This includes the cultivation of the crop, the transportation from the field to the ethanol production plant, the ethanol production, the transportation and distribution to the depot and to the filling station. The inventory is based on literature data.0The data set represents the national / regional production mix including domestic production. Imports are not considered.Foreground system:
Winter wheat is more demanding with regard to climate and soil conditions then other cereals. Winter wheat is sawn in autumn (usually starting mid September) and needs vernalisation through frost temperatures. Stocking takes place in spring. Wheat is harvested in mid summer.
The top three producing countries in the EU27 are covered. The major wheat producers in Europe are France, Germany and the UK. These countries produce more than 50% of the total amount of maize produced in the EU27 (25%, 15% and 10% respectively). Scaled to 100%, the respective production shares are 50% for France, 30% for Germany and 10% for the UK.
Nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorous are important for plant growth. Mineral fertilizers are used to improve the production.Fertilizer application rates were retrieved from Eurostat.
This dataset is based on secondary data from literature and expert judgment. Background data, e.g. life cycle inventories for thermal energy supply, electrical power supply, etc. were exclusively adopted from the GaBi-6 databases.
Field emissions of NH3, NOx, N2, NO3-, CH4, and N2O gases from organic and mineral fertiliser degradation have been assessed based on Bouwmann et al.1996, Brentrup et al. 2000, IPCC 2003 and IPCC 2008. Some relevant inventory data of the N-cycle are given in table 2. The agricultural model within GaBi used for calculation assumes that nitrate is stored in the soil, so after accounting for uptake by crop and losses a defined fraction of the input is available in the following production period. Impacts associated with atmospheric deposition of different forms of nitrogen play an important role in eco systems and were included in this assessment.
After harvest the wheat grains are transported to the ethanol production plant. There are two different milling technologies: Wet and dry milling. Due to the rare use of wet mill plants only the dry mill plant technology is considered. At the ethanol production plant the first process steps are the drying, the milling of the grains by a hammer mill, the mashing with water and the cooking. Enzymes and ammonia for pH adjustment are added to convert starch into sugars making the mash ready to be fermented. The mash is pumped in a fermenter together with yeast and auxiliary materials (sodium hydroxide and sulphuric acid). After fermentation ethanol is separated from the mash in a distillation process. Subsequently, the ethanol is concentrated via rectification and dehydrated to create an almost pure ethanol solution, the anhydrous ethanol. The ethanol is transported to a fuel depot for blending and distributed to the filling stations. The stillage co-produced during distillation is concentrated and dried to produce dried distiller grains with soluble (DDGS). DDGS can be used as animal feed. A simplified flow chart of the bioethanol supply is shown below.
Background system:
Electricity: Electricity is modelled according to the individual country-specific situations. The country-specific modelling is achieved on multiple levels. Firstly, individual energy carrier specific power plants and plants for renewable energy sources are modelled according to the current national electricity grid mix. Modelling the electricity consumption mix includes transmission / distribution losses and the own use by energy producers (own consumption of power plants and "other" own consumption e.g. due to pumped storage hydro power etc.), as well as imported electricity. Secondly, the national emission and efficiency standards of the power plants are modelled as well as the share of electricity plants and combined heat and power plants (CHP). Thirdly, the country-specific energy carrier supply (share of imports and / or domestic supply) including the country-specific energy carrier properties (e.g. element and energy content) are accounted for. Fourthly, the exploration, mining/production, processing and transport processes of the energy carrier supply chains are modelled according to the specific situation of each electricity producing country. The different production and processing techniques (emissions and efficiencies) in the different energy producing countries are considered, e.g. different crude oil production technologies or different flaring rates at the oil platforms.
Thermal energy, process steam: The thermal energy and process steam supply is modelled according to the individual country-specific situation with regard to emission standards and considered energy carriers. The thermal energy and process steam are produced at heat plants. Efficiencies for thermal energy production are by definition 100% in relation to the corresponding energy carrier input. For process steam the efficiency ranges from 85%, 90% to 95%. The energy carriers used for the generation of thermal energy and process steam are modelled according to the specific import situation (see electricity above).
Transports: All relevant and known transport processes are included. Ocean-going and inland ship transport as well as rail, truck and pipeline transport of bulk commodities are considered.
Energy carriers: The energy carriers are modelled according to the specific supply situation (see electricity above).
Refinery products: Diesel fuel, gasoline, technical gases, fuel oils, lubricants and residues such as bitumen are modelled with a parameterised country-specific refinery model. The refinery model represents the current national standard in refining techniques (e.g. emission level, internal energy consumption, etc.) as well as the individual country-specific product output spectrum, which can be quite different from country to country. The supply of crude oil is modelled, again, according to the country-specific situation with the respective properties of the resources.Supply of 1 kg bioethanol at filling station for road transportation and other consumers.energy_bioethanol_wheat_supply.jpgLCI resultAttributionalNoneAllocation - net calorific valueFor the co-product dried distiller grains with soluble (DDGS) allocation by energy (net calorific value) is applied. Biotic carbon dioxide released during fermentation is considered as burden free.Direct land use change: GHG emissions from direct LUC allocated to good/service for 20 years after the LUC occurs.
Carbon storage and delayed emissions: credits associated with temporary (carbon) storage or delayed emissions are not considered in the calculation of the Global Warming Potential impacts for the default impact categories.
Emissions off-setting: not included
Fossil and biogenic carbon emissions and removals: removals and emissions are modelled as follows: All GHG emissions from fossil fuels (including peat and limestone) are modelled consistently with the ILCD list of elementary flows. In the case that the emissions refer to the molecules CO2 and CH4, they are modelled as ‘carbon dioxide (fossil)’ and ‘methane (fossil)’. Biogenic uptake and emissions are modelled separately. For land use change, all carbon emissions and uptakes are inventoried separately for each of the elementary flows. Soil carbon accumulation (uptake) via improved agricultural management is excluded from the model.NoneGaBi Modelling PrinciplesGaBi Water Modelling PrinciplesCut-off rules for each unit process: Coverage of at least 95% of mass and energy of the input and output flows, and 98% of their environmental relevance (according to expert judgment).NoneThe data sources for the complete product system are sufficiently consistent: The data on the energy carrier supply chain are based on statistics with country / region-specific transport distances and energy carrier composition, as well as industry and literature data on the inventory of the crop cultivation, the transportation from the field to the ethanol production plant, the ethanol production, the transportation and distribution to the depot and to the filling station are based on literature data. Filling station data are also from literature. LCI modelling is fully consistent.NoneFor details please see the document "GaBi Databases Modelling Principles"NoneOptimierung der Schnittstelle: Zapfventil/Tankstutzen - Untersuchungsbericht, 2000SBAP: A Guide to Air Regulations for: Gasoline and Diesel Fuel Dispensing Stations, 2009Refueling and Evaporative Emissions of VOC from Gasoline Powered Motor Vehicles, 2007New Technology for Emission Reduction at Petrol Stations, 2000Emissions Estimation Technique Manual for Aggregated Emissions from Service Stations, 1999Well-to-Wheels Analysis of Future Automotive Fuels and Powertrains in the European Context, 2010Well-to-Wheels Analysis of Future Automotive Fuels and Powertrains in the European Context, 2009US EPA Emissions Factors & AP 42, Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors, 5th Ed.Assessment of the Implementation of the VOC Stage 1 Directive (1994/63/EC), 2009PFS of the Future, 2010Road Transport Biofuels: Impact on UK Air Quality, 2011Basisdaten für ökol.

Calculated results are published frequently in various external, professional and third party LCA literature, papers, and other media within industry, academia and politics. The incorporation of feedback provided by the GaBi users is standard practice in the maintenance and update procedure, and leads to stable, quality-assured and constantly improved data. The internal review is done with several iterative steps involving raw data validation, raw data documentation, representativeness, completeness and consistent modelling with regard to ISO 14040 and 14044. The data set documentation is correct in respect to the appropriateness of the information available. It includes all relevant information in relation to data quality and the scope of application of the respective LCI result.Sphera Solutions GmbHIABP-GaBiGaBi conformity systemFully compliantFully compliantFully compliantFully compliantFully compliantNot definedUNEP SETAC Life Cycle InitiativeNot definedNot definedNot definedNot definedNot definedNot definedILCD Data Network - Entry-levelNot definedFully compliantFully compliantNot definedFully compliantNot definedSphera Solutions GmbHThis background LCI data set can be used for any types of LCA studies.Sphera Solutions GmbH2021-02-01T00:00:00.000ILCD format 1.1Sphera Solutions GmbHNo official approval by producer or operator2021-02-01T00:00:00.00000.00.001Data set finalised; entirely publishedGaBi databasesSphera Solutions GmbHtrueOtherGaBi (source code, database including extension modules and single data sets, documentation) remains property of Sphera Solutions GmbH.
