Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. The product 'molasses from sugar beet' is a processed agricultural product. The multioutput-process 'sugar beet in sugar refinery' delivers the co-products 'sugar from sugar beet at sugar refinery' and 'molasses from sugar beet at sugar refinery' and 'pulps from sugar beet at sugar refinery'. Sweet juice is extracted from the sugar beets by diffusion. The juice is then purified and crystallized to sugar. Molasses come as a by-product of the crystallization process. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. The reference product amount is 1.
