Detailed background data
It has been assumed that the food processing industry is located in Denmark. Main ingredient is soy protein, assumed as soy protein isolate (SPI), althought it is not clear if it could be soy protein concentrate (SPC) instead. The ratio between ingredient and protein content in the product (13/17 = 76%) seems high for SPC. Ingredients other than soy protein estimated from the actual Naturli product (Naturali 2020f). Oil, starch and salt are assumed equal to the fat, carbohydrate and salt content, respectively, in the nutritional composition. The rest of dry mass is modelled as onion and spices, 1% each. Other minor ingredients are neglected and the balance for wet weight is accomplished with tap water. Manufacturing is approximated as pork sausage production from Davis and Sonesson (2008). Freezing is approximated with Agribalyse data on beef freezing (ADEME 2020c). Retail is modelled assuming the following storage: Frozen. 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: Naturli (2020f);ADEME (2020c);Davis and Sonesson (2008).
