Detailed background data

It has been assumed that the food processing industry is located in Denmark. Recipe based on the product 'Vores Kartoffelmos' (BilkaToGo 2020b). Cream and milk powder both modelled as as milk powder. Potato flakes (830g/kg product) quantified as 6,9kg raw potato, 2,5kg organic waste and 3kg waste water per kg final product. Based on following assumptions: 1) 5.3 kg raw potato/kg dry potato, and 2) 1.57 kg raw potato/kg peeled potato, data from Carlsson-Kanyama and Faist (2000). Manufacturing is modelled as a boiling process from Agribalyse database (ADEME 2020d), plus drying according to milk drying in the ecoinvent database (Saunier 2015), which provides factors per kg water evaporated. 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: BilkaToGo (2020b); Saunier F (2015); Carlsson-Kanyama and Faist (2000); ADEME (2020d).
