Technology description including background system Foreground system The system boundaries comprise the cradle to gate life cycle of blowable mineral wool. The LCI dataset consider the production. Mineral wool is made of sedimentary or igneous rocks (mainly basalt) and various recycled materials. The material is melted in the melting furnaces at 1400-1500 ° C and passed through rapidly rotating rollers. The fibres are then cut to required size and packed. Transportation processes for the raw materials are accounted for as far as data on average transport distances were available. All relevant energy and energy flow are included in the system. In the disposal phase, a manual dismantling (no loads) is assumed in module C1. The transport in module C2 to the landfill site takes place with a truck (50km). In C3, if relevant, a packaging with PE foil is taken into account (for example, for mineral fiber products. 0.0125 kg foil per kg of discarded material). In module C4 the average landfill emissions corresponding to the product (reference country Germany) are shown. The use of landfill gas is not taken into account.
