1. Scope and Applicability

This PCR governs foreground data packages for CPC 23926 processed cloves made from a separately identified CPC 01656 unprocessed whole-clove lot. The package shall represent one botanical identity, one incoming raw-material state, one final product form, one particle-size specification, one processing route and one packaging configuration. It shall not average whole, crushed, ground and powdered products, or treated and untreated routes.

Covered foreground operations are receipt and lot acceptance, dry cleaning and sorting, conditional wet cleaning, conditional facility drying or moisture conditioning, conditional crushing or grinding and particle classification, conditional steam microbial reduction, conditional dosing of amorphous silicon dioxide, packaging, controlled storage, sanitation, dust control and conditional on-site wastewater treatment. Agricultural production, harvest, the production history of the CPC 01656 input and inbound transport are upstream. Distribution, retail, culinary use and end-of-life are downstream.

Codex CXS 344-2021 is used for botanical identity, whole and ground/powdered styles, quality attributes and food-hygiene links when the marketed product falls within that standard. It does not replace the retained CPC 23926 boundary or erase the crushed and otherwise-processed forms carried by the verified Tiangong reference identity.

2. Product Category Identity

Field	Value
canonical_pcr_id	pcr.food-products-beverages-and-tobacco-textiles-apparel-and-leather-products.grain-mill-products-starches-and-starch-products-other-food-products.cloves-whole-stems-processed
classification_refs	CPC 3.0: 23926, exact
covered_products	Processed cloves from a declared CPC 01656 raw-clove lot in exactly one form: processed whole, crushed, ground or powdered; a declared INS 551 ground or powdered formulation is covered only through its separate dosing route.
excluded_products	CPC 01656 raw cloves; mixed-spice or seasoning products; clove essential oil, oleoresin or extract; another botanical spice; datasets averaging multiple product forms, particle-size specifications or microbial-reduction routes.
representative_product	One lot-specific processed clove product with declared botanical identity, final form, particle size, moisture state, treatment history and package.
production_route	Receipt → dry cleaning and sorting → conditional wet cleaning → conditional drying → conditional size reduction → conditional steam microbial reduction → conditional INS 551 dosing → packaging, storage and release. Every omitted or included conditional step is declared.
market_state	Dry food spice released in one declared bulk or retail package; net product mass excludes packaging.

3. Reference Flow

Field	Value
What	Supply processed cloves with the declared aroma, flavour, cleanliness, form, particle-size and hygiene attributes.
How much	1 kg net conforming released product, excluding all packaging.
How well	The declared form meets the applicable specification for identity, moisture, physical defects, contaminants, microbiological controls and particle size; no cross-form or cross-route averaging is allowed.
How long or cycle	One foreground production lot through packaged product release; storage duration and conditions are declared, with no separate service-life credit.
reference_flow_link	The fixed output row `reference_product_output` from `packaging_storage_release`.

Field	Value
Reference amount	1 kg net released product
Reference product flow	Cloves (whole stems), processed `c848928e-35e4-4713-aba4-2f2d01ac641d`
Reference flow property	Mass `93a60a56-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200b9a66`
Reference unit group	Units of mass `93a60a57-a4c8-11da-a746-0800200c9a66`
Reference unit	kg
Required qualifiers	botanical identity and scientific name; incoming CPC 01656 state and moisture; origin and lot; final form; particle-size or sieve specification; drying route and conditions; microbial-reduction treatment status; additive identity and concentration; package bill of materials; storage conditions; geography and reference period

When constructing a foreground data package, every item in Required qualifiers shall be declared in dataset metadata, process notes, the reference-flow comment, the product description or an equivalent field. Missing qualifiers make the reference flow incomplete.

4. Measurement and Unit Rules

rule_id	Applies to	Required property	Required unit	Rule
`reference_net_mass`	released reference product	Mass `93a60a56-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200b9a66`	kg	Report 1 kg net product at release; packaging, pallets and labels are excluded from reference mass and inventoried separately.
`incoming_mass_state`	CPC 01656 input	Mass	kg	Record incoming lot mass and moisture on the measured basis; do not silently convert a processed input into raw cloves.
`moisture_balance`	drying and steam treatment	Mass	kg water and kg product	Retain inlet and outlet moisture measurements and calculate removed water without imposing a default moisture value.
`particle_size_identity`	crushed, ground and powdered forms	Mass fraction and sieve aperture	% and mm or µm	Record the declared sieve method and distribution; a marketing term alone cannot substitute for a measured particle-size specification.
`utility_energy`	electricity, steam, hot water and heated air	Energy	kWh or MJ	Preserve metered units and conversion factors; never combine electricity and thermal energy in one amount.
`wastewater_load`	direct water emissions	Mass	kg	Calculate each pollutant load separately from measured volume and concentration over the same period; wastewater sent to sewer or treatment is not simultaneously a direct environmental discharge.

5. System Boundary

Boundary Abstraction

Field	Value
declared_starting_condition	A lot of CPC 01656 unprocessed whole cloves crossing the foreground facility gate with declared botanical identity, supplier, origin, moisture, physical condition and prior post-harvest history.
starting_condition_role	Upstream product input and auditable start of processed-clove foreground operations.
product_classification_scope	CPC 23926 processed cloves only, represented by one declared form and route.
recursive_input_rule	A purchased input already meeting CPC 23926 is a processed-clove intermediate, not the starting raw input. Disclose it, use an upstream dataset for completed processing and omit those duplicated foreground stages.
upstream_dataset_requirement	Cultivation, harvest, raw-clove post-harvest operations completed before receipt, production of packaging and chemicals, electricity and fuel supply, and inbound transport require upstream datasets when inside the study scope.
disclosure	Declare product form, particle size, all included and omitted conditional processes, treatment order, moisture history, package, storage conditions, geography, period, supplier coverage and any upstream processed-clove input.
