Quality network: 30Average US, United States dataThe particle board process represents average US technology. The particleboard manufacturing process is a highly automate and process-controlled. Wood residues are sorted and stored, screeened by particle size, oversized particles are refined, particles are dried and then blended with resin, wax, catalyst, and scavengers, the board is formed forming a mat with mulitple layers consisting of face and core layers, the board is then pressed, cooled, sanded and sawn to final size.Unit process, single operationAttributionalnoneNoneModule F: Particleboard-A Life-Cycle Inventory of Manufacturing Panels from Resource through ProductSimaPro working files for resins and non structural panels95.00Survey of industry production practice; manufacturing technology typical for industry.No statementMaureen Puettmann2021-02-01T00:00:00.000ILCD format 1.1Maureen Puettmann2021-02-01T00:00:00.00000.00.001Data set finalised; entirely publishedNREL US Life Cycle Inventory (USLCI) LibraryVarious (NREL USLCI)trueFree of charge for all users and usesGaBi (source code, database including extension modules and single data sets, documentation) remains property of Sphera Solutions GmbH.
