Product Product description: Glasopor is a cellular glass aggregate made from recycled glass containers collected from households in Norway. After going through a glass sorting facility, the glass is milled to glass powder. After milling and mixing the glass is expanded 7-8 times in a kiln at temperatures of 9oC. The output of the kiln breaks by cooling into a granular material of 1-6 mm with dry bulk density of 18 /m3. The product can be used as thermal insulation and draining layer. It can also be used as light weight filling material.

LCA: Calculation rules Declared unit: A1-A3: 1 m3 of Glasopor, bulk (18 /m3) to factory gate System boundary: The system boundary of the EPD follows the modular structure in line with EN 1584. This section describes the modules which are contained within the scope of this study. As the scope of the assessment is up to the point at which the lightweight clay aggregate is manufactured modules A1A3 have been considered in this LCA. Raw materials Mill Mixer Kiln Glasopor 1-6 Energy Data quality: Raw material Glass Energy Use Extraction and combustion Fuel consumption Extraction and combustion Data quality Specific data Data Source and description Waste fraction from glas recycling, Impacts are allocated to recycled glass. Age of data 213 Specific data Data base, Skjåk EcoInvent 3.1 213 Specific data Data base, Skjåk EcoInvent 3.1 213 Allocation: The allocation is made in accordance with the provisions of EN 1584. Glass raw material is a waste from another process and hence no impacts are allocated to this material except transport to plant. Glasopor is the only product produced in the plant. Cut-off criteria: No known processes are excluded. LCA: Scenarios and additional technical information Additional technical information is a supplier of insulation and ground fillngs for all types of construction. The products are made of the waste fraction from recycled glass. The material has an indefinite service life and require no maintenance during use. This product be re-excavated and used as filling for new contruction's service life. Glasopor 1-6 (Cellular glass aggregate) 3/6
