The total massof emitted GHGs is allocated to CO 2equivalents.Eutrophication potentialThe aggregate measure of the inland water eutrophication potentialof some substances, calculated through the conversion factor ofphosphorous and nitrogen compounds (waste water discharges andair emissions of NO xand NH 3) into phosphorous equivalents.Ozone layer depletion potentialThe aggregate measure of the ozone layer depleting potential of somesubstances, calculated through the conversion factor of halogenatedhydrocarbons that contribute to the depletion of the ozone layer intoCFC -11 equivalents.3,37E-03 7,79E-05 1,42E-021,90E-04 1,15E-07 2,99E-047,76E+00 4,01E-04 7,83E+00Photochemical ozone creation potentialThe aggregate measure of the ground level ozone creation potentialof some substances, calculated through the conversion factor ofethylene equivalents that contribute to the formation of photochemicaloxidants.1,68E-04 2,43E-08 1,75E-041,16E-05 7,29E-09 1,45E-051,75E-02 2,39E-05 1,89E-021,11E-09 5,71E-13 2,20E-092,35E-07 2,18E-09 9,05E-07Recyclability and recoverabilityThe recyclability and the recoverability rate of a new rail vehicle areexpressed as a percentage by mass of the rail vehicle that canpotentially be recycled, reused or both (recyclability rate), orrecovered, reused or both (recoverability rate).7
