Very high emissions of Tritium to air and water for some processes
At Earthster we noticed that several processes have what appears unrealistic emissions of Tritium to water and air. The worst offender seems to be Electricity - SOLAR - South Carolina Electric & Gas Company, which has 3.03e+19 kBq of Tritium to water. But all Electricity - SOLAR
, Electricity - MIXED
, Electricity - COAL
seem to have the same problem. The consequence is very high impacts to human health for e.g. the ReCiPe2016 impact method.
Here is a spreadsheet of processes which have Tritium emission/water for comparison.
do these levels of Tritium emissions make sense?
