Ecospold 2 exchange, ID = 291fc06d-1b3e-4077-aabb-346b588ed24b; Literature value. Derived from HBEFA database (Keller, 2010).
Data extrapolated from the original dataset covering the RER region. Corrected to account for 12% biodiesel blend accordind to fuels energy content. Type of diesel represents the Brazilian diesel with 500 ppm of sulphur concentration. For conventional diesel, it was considered energy content of 129.500 Btu/gal, for animal-based biodiesel 115.720 Btu/gal and for plant-based biodiesel 119.216 Btu/gal (USEPA, 2002). Final value is influenced by the updated freight load factor form EPE (2020).
