Detailed background data

It has been assumed that the food processing industry is located in Denmark. Ingredients are based on the Guldkorn description in its website (Guldkorn 2020) and the FRIDA database nutrient content (DTU 2019). The 5% of ingredients not accounted for is neglected, by scaling the included 95% to 100%. We assume 2% losses during manufacturing. Energy and other inputs for manufacturing approximated from biscuit production in Noya et al. (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: Noya et al. (2018); Guldkorn (2020); DTU (2019).
