41e29206-9757-4576-8b85-f211128cb6cfEVALON V (mechanically attached, 2kg/m2 / 1,5mm) - alwitra GmbH - (D/2 - 100% recycling)calandering, single production processsingle producer (at plant)surface weight: 2,0 kg/m2bitumen compatible roofing and waterproofing membrane systemsSystemsConstruction"This data set contains the results for the modules D - 100% recycling according to EN 15804. It also includes benefits resulting from module A5 (but these are of minor importance as these benefits only result from the incineration of packaging waste). To avoid broken flows, the power & thermal energy output flows from module A5 and module C have to be connected with the input flows in module D. A comparison with other products is only allowed by a similar application in the building. In principle, a comparison or evaluation of EPD data is only possible if all the datasets are created to be compared to EN 15804 and the product-specific features are considered.
The following modules are declared for this product in the underlying EPD: A4, A5, C2, C3/1, C3/2, D/1, D/2
. The following datasets are available for this product in the GaBi database : A5, C3/1, C3/2, D/2"74EVALON V roofing and waterproofing membranes of the company alwitra are manufactured in Hermeskeil, Germany.Foreground system:
In this Environmental Product Declaration compatible bitumen roof and are described (in Germany EVA). The declared product consists of a high polymer alloy of EVA terpolymer and PVC including additives. The roofing and waterproofing membranes are manufactured with a polyester fleece backing.
This declared product EVALON ® V (laminated with polyester fleece) is also the basis for the multifunctional roofing membranes EVALON® Solar. In this case, on their upper side additional photovoltaic (PV) modules are factory-integrated to be connected via factory-mounted waterproof connection boxes and cables on the underside. The PV modules are not part of this declaration.
The stitching of the membrane sheets is done with hot air or solvent welding agent.
Manufacturing process:
The basic materials and intermediate products (except the backing) are pre-mixed in a mixer and subsequently plastified in an extruder together with the other formulation ingredients. The plastics composition as an intermediate is fed over a mixing mill into a calander, where it is rolled out into a homogeneous roofing or waterproofing membrane; and the underside backing layer is applied. The finished membrane is cooled down over special chill rolls and subsequently cut to its final size and fabricated into rolls.
All unbacked production residues (cut-off edge strips) are recycled, i. e. directly refed into the production process.
Background system:
Electricity: Electricity is modelled according to the individual country-specific situations. The country-specific modelling is achieved on multiple levels. Firstly, individual energy carrier specific power plants and plants for renewable energy sources are modelled according to the current national electricity grid mix. Modelling the electricity consumption mix includes transmission / distribution losses and the own use by energy producers (own consumption of power plants and "other" own consumption e.g. due to pumped storage hydro power etc.), as well as imported electricity. Secondly, the national emission and efficiency standards of the power plants are modelled as well as the share of electricity plants and combined heat and power plants (CHP). Thirdly, the country-specific energy carrier supply (share of imports and / or domestic supply) including the country-specific energy carrier properties (e.g. element and energy content) are accounted for. Fourthly, the exploration, mining/production, processing and transport processes of the energy carrier supply chains are modelled according to the specific situation of each electricity producing country. The different production and processing techniques (emissions and efficiencies) in the different energy producing countries are considered, e.g. different crude oil production technologies or different flaring rates at the oil platforms.
Thermal energy, process steam: The thermal energy and process steam supply is modelled according to the individual country-specific situation with regard to emission standards and considered energy carriers. The thermal energy and process steam are produced at heat plants. Efficiencies for thermal energy production are by definition 100% in relation to the corresponding energy carrier input. For process steam the efficiency ranges from 85%, 90% to 95%. The energy carriers used for the generation of thermal energy and process steam are modelled according to the specific import situation (see electricity above).
Transports: All relevant and known transport processes are included. Ocean-going and inland ship transport as well as rail, truck and pipeline transport of bulk commodities are considered.
Energy carriers: The energy carriers are modelled according to the specific supply situation (see electricity above).
Refinery products: Diesel fuel, gasoline, technical gases, fuel oils, lubricants and residues such as bitumen are modelled with a parameterised country-specific refinery model. The refinery model represents the current national standard in refining techniques (e.g. emission level, internal energy consumption, etc.) as well as the individual country-specific product output spectrum, which can be quite different from country to country. The supply of crude oil is modelled, again, according to the country-specific situation with the respective properties of the resources.The intended use of the declared products is as follows:
a) Use for roof waterproofing:
Single-ply waterproofing of non-used and used roofs in flat and sloped shape. Depending on the specification, the membranes are applied as follows:
loose laid under ballast (e.g. gravel, tiles, vegetation)
; mechanically fastened; or
bonded.
b) Use for waterproofing of foundations:
Single-ply waterproofing of non-waterproof foundations or constructional parts against ground moisture and non-pressing water. Depending on the specification, the membranes are applied as follows: loose laid under ballast
or bonded
. When processing the manufacturer's installation instructions must be followed.
?LCI resultAttributionalNoneAllocation - market valueAllocation - net calorific valueAllocation - exergetic contentAllocation - massBackground system: For the combined heat and power production, allocation by exergetic content is applied. For the electricity generation and by-products, e.g. gypsum, allocation by market value is applied due to no common physical properties. Within the refinery allocation by net calorific value and mass is used. For the combined crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids production allocation by net calorific value is applied.
