Detailed background data
It has been assumed that the food processing industry is located in Spain. Data are obtained as the arithmetic average of 3 studies of olive oil in Cyprus, Spain and Greece (Avraamides and Fatta 2008; Tsarouhas et al. 2015; Molero 2006). In the Cyprus study, fuel use is very uncertain, since the mill uses pomace as fuel and this is inventoried as 'waste biomass' fuel, for which emissions need to be accounted for. We assume the pomace has 48% moisture and a net calorific value of 20.5 MJ/kg dry mass, based on Tawarah (2018).
. Retail is modelled assuming the following storage: Ambient. See more details as well as literature references in the methodoly report on: www.denstoreklimadatabase.dk.
Data on inputs and outputs of the food processing industry is modelled using: Avraamides and Fatta (2008); Tawarah (2018); Tsarouhas et al. (2015); Molero (2006).
