Carbon Minds Chemicals LCA Database

Updated over 3 weeks ago

One Click LCA integrates the Carbon Minds LCA database for chemicals and plastics.

Carbon Minds End User License Agreement applies to the use of this data, and it can be found at https://www.oneclicklca.com/eula-carbonminds/.

Two main pre-packaged scopes of this database are available through One Click LCA.

Essential Chemicals

Approximately 1400 datasets, 78 essential chemicals with consumption and production mixes and major production technology for China, US, Europe (DE, NL, BE & EU27 average) and a global average. The list of chemicals included is below.

Essential Plastics

Approximately 730 datasets, 92 plastics with consumption and production mixes and major production technology for China, US, Europe (DE, NL, BE & EU27 average) and a global average. The list of included plastics is below.
