1. Define Scope

This step establishes the boundaries and parameters for the PCF analysis of duxdqzpvqf.

Functional Unit: The functional unit for this PCF is defined as 1.0 unit of duxdqzpvqf, representing its primary function and lifespan.

System Boundary: The analysis employs a cradle-to-grave system boundary, encompassing all stages from raw material extraction to end-of-life treatment. While the parameter specified "factory_gate" as a system boundary, the inclusion of downstream lifecycle stages (transport, use, EoL) necessitates a comprehensive cradle-to-grave approach for the full PCF calculation. The factory_gate boundary can be considered the primary data collection point for production-related emissions.

Geographic Scope:

Final Production Country: China

Supply Chain Focus: Europe Focused (implying material sourcing and market distribution primarily in Europe, with manufacturing in China).

Accounting Standard: The analysis strictly follows the GHG Protocol Product Standard, categorizing emissions into Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned or controlled sources), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from the generation of purchased energy), and Scope 3 (all other indirect emissions that occur in the value chain).

Allocation: Where necessary, emissions are allocated based on mass or economic value, ensuring no double counting and full coverage of emissions relevant to the functional unit.
