Detailed background data

It has been assumed that the food processing industry is located in Denmark. We did not find specific inventory data for production of cider. This process was approximated based on ingredients for a soft drink (Amienyo et al. 2012), except sugar, which is specifically calculated to account for the sugar content in the final product plus losses through fermentation to achieve 4.5% ethanol content in the final product. Energy use for manufacturing is also approximated with data for soft drinks by Amienyo et al. (2012). 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: Amienyo et al. (2012).
