Description

Brightway Flows is a list of elementary flows for life cycle assessment. It takes existing flow lists, like EF 3.1, and then enriches those existing elementary flows by adding in chemical, physical, and biological properties, as well as registry numbers and web links. It also creates taxonomies for specific classes of flows, like agricultural chemicals or elements, and classifies flows in those taxnomies. It then runs a harmonisation algorithm to get agreement within and across elementary flow lists. Finally, it links and compares characterisation factors for elementary flows. All source code and data outputs are open.
