1. Scope and Applicability

This PCR covers manufacture of clear unworked straight borosilicate glass tubing from individually purchased virgin silica sand, orthoboric acid, soda ash and alumina, with each actual oxidising/fining constituent separate, through batch preparation, resistive electric tank melting/refining/conditioning, Danner air-supported drawing, annealing, cooling, raw stock-length cutting, inspection and unique first quality release. Retain actual campaign-start/support fuel, forehearth/muffle/lehr heat, internal same-composition returns, utilities, emission control, residues and subsequent observed original-cohort packing/storage/handling/dispatch services. It is a manufacture-to-first-release method with a separately disclosed service account, not purchased-finished-tube packing or purchased-waste sorting. [jrc-glass-bref-2013; schott-hot-forming; schott-duran-tubing]

Exclude waste-glass sorting/cleaning without remelting, purchased finished tube repacking, a purchased premelt/redraw-only start, primary quartz/fused-silica tubes, soda-lime tubes, optical blanks, rods/balls/microspheres, float/cast/rolled/drawn sheets, glass fibre, deliberate coloured/lead/fluoride-containing formulations, Vello/down/up-draw routes, normal fossil-fired melting with electric boost, and subsequent end forming, fire-polishing, grinding, drilling, coating, tempering, lamination, ampoule/vial or laboratory-article manufacture. A real different batch ingredient, fuel, package or auxiliary requires an additional specific atomic exchange and reassessment of applicability, never omission or a zero/other bundle.

JRC sections 2.1, 2.3.4 and 2.8 support raw-batch chemistry, electric melting and Danner tubes; sections 3.7.1–3.7.5 constrain utility/residue and emission completeness. SCHOTT independently identifies the Danner bore-forming/annealing route and real unworked tube terminal; its DURAN brochure supplies manufacturer-specific quality/packaging countercontext. This is a transparent technical synthesis, not one common SKU, recipe, plant or contemporary order. Table 2.8 is variable final oxide composition; Table 3.34 contains historical oxy-fuel/regenerative cases per melted glass. Neither establishes purchased chemical masses, electric energy, yield or actual emitted species. DURAN density, dimension combinations, reannealing cycles, performance and certification remain specific to its products; no such numerical default is adopted. The two SCHOTT sources are one publisher, not independent sources. ILCD, not the industrial documents, supports the limited attributional allocation hierarchy.

Reference product flow	Borosilicate glass `05342b0b-c850-45a8-b6dd-1b735e40262a`
Reference flow property	Mass `93a60a56-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200b9a66`

Reference unit	kg
Required qualifiers	borosilicate composition and measured oxide/Si B Na Al C H O plus actual N S Mo balances; whole supplied chemical identities assays hydration free moisture impurities and batch lot; clear straight tube outside diameter wall thickness bore stock length tolerance and actual test specification; resistive electric tank Danner drawing annealing and cut-end unworked state; unique first-release lot net kg weighing temperature humidity moisture and calibrated tare; actual quality test results and surface/chemical/physical acceptance records without manufacturer performance inheritance; native high-temperature-conductivity chemical-plant identity compatibility and actual supplier route stage; site geography period furnace campaign start-stop failed zero-output idle cleanup rework and meter hierarchy; source-separated internal returns opening closing raw WIP melt FG and installed refractory electrode oil water air-receiver stock and each inherited exchange vector; original-cohort service interval gross dispatch customer returns prior dispatch reversals and packaging ledgers; actual gas species emission destinations and measured independent density state or heat basis for conversions

The Product identity denotes borosilicate glass with the official Chinese tube basename; native route “High temperature conductivity” and mix/location “At the chemical plant” remain binding compatibility qualifiers. Silica and boron trioxide are the glass-forming constituents and low expansion/thermal-shock comments are qualitative, not test thresholds. The native household-use examples do not identify a finished household article here. The native route label alone does not prove an electric furnace; this PCR selects resistive electric melting independently from process evidence. Confirm the actual tube, site stage and route before provider linkage; no generic glass, quartz tube, sheet, bead, cullet or recipe equivalence is implied.

Every required qualifier must be declared in actual foreground metadata, reference comment or equivalent product/process description; missing information makes the reference definition incomplete.

4. Measurement and Unit Rules

rule_id	Applies to	Required property	Required unit	Rule
reference_mass	reference product	Mass `93a60a56-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200b9a66`	kg	Reference quantity is 1 kg net bare cooled annealed tube at first release, measured by cp_release with packaging excluded; count or length alone does not establish mass.
raw_unit_state	all inventory rows	Actual numerator property	actual native unit	Preserve raw amounts and state, integrate actual rates only and convert before allocation and the single section8 normalization. Independently measure substance-specific density/state; native secondary coefficients do not establish density. Stock and reaction/physical balances are separate from characterization indicators.

5. System Boundary

Boundary Abstraction

Field	Value
declared_starting_condition	Individually supplied virgin silica sand H3BO3 soda ash alumina and each real separate fining/oxidising chemical at the receiving gate
starting_condition_role	Full batch-to-tube manufacturing input; upstream extraction/chemical production and real inbound transport remain linked
product_classification_scope	CPC3.0:37111 unworked borosilicate tube subset; other glass intermediates and waste-glass treatment not generalized
recursive_input_rule	Own same-composition cullet/dust transfers retain origin and inherited vector and cancel; purchased sorted cullet or premelt cannot silently replace virgin-batch manufacturing
upstream_dataset_requirement	Match whole supplied composition form processing route geography period and actual utility interface; retain every native restriction before provider linkage
disclosure	Report manufacturing first-release Q and its physical gate separately from observed original-cohort service FG/gross-dispatch and packaging gates with all stocks and vectors

rule_id	Applies to	Rule	source_ids
b_route	applicability	Use the complete section1 manufacture route. Record upstream extraction/production and real transport of whole purchased materials and utilities with appropriate providers, not just received tube packaging. Internal batches/melt/cullet/air/water/electricity transfers retain vectors and cancel once at the combined gate. Supplier substitution never proves compatibility.	jrc-glass-bref-2013; schott-hot-forming
b_release	manufacturing and FG gates	Q is net kg of newly first-quality-released bare tube. Include opening/closing glass WIP and melt with inherited exchange vectors and every failed batch zero-output trial start-stop holding idle cleaning and rework load. Q already includes the same cohort closing FG; do not add closing FG to manufacturing production. The complete manufacturing physical gate includes opening raw material, WIP/melt and installed/spare material stocks plus actual external receipts = Q plus the corresponding closing unreleased raw/WIP/melt and installed/spare stocks plus all real external exits. Newly first-released closing FG is outside that manufacturing closing term and its full manufacturing exchange vector remains assigned to Q. Include reactive and bulk-gas inputs/releases where applicable; pair substage net withdrawals separately and never mix gross receipts with stock-corrected consumption.	jrc-glass-bref-2013; schott-duran-tubing
b_service	post-release service account	Keep actual original-cohort packing storage handling dispatch return inspection and incremental repair/breakage loads in a separate service account normalized to that original Q and observed interval. Track opening FG + newly released tube + actual customer-return receipts + each real service material/water input = closing FG + gross physical dispatch + actual scrap/other physical exits and species releases. Reconcile actual wet/dry tube changes, added water/material and removed glass/moisture independently; add each real exchange as a specific row and retain unworked-tube applicability. Return receipt or retest is not new Q. Preserve original-dispatch reversal, prior production vector and actual incremental repair vector; no complete return-cohort result with unknown history. Cancel internal first release Q when combining manufacturing and service physical gates; do not duplicate original production burdens.	schott-duran-tubing; jrc-ilcd-2010
b_charge	non-WIP stocks and services	Independently retain installed and spare electrodes refractories lubricant circuit water air receivers and any actually present process/refrigerant charge, with opening/closing physical stocks and each exchange-specific inherited historical vector. Actual measured consumption/service-equivalent accounting may replace a stock equation only on the same scope and without a second stock correction. New purchases physical receipt and installed consumption are different ledgers. For actual chillers steam boilers or other additional equipment add their true atomic exchanges; never presume they exist or erase them by a zero.	jrc-glass-bref-2013
b_pack	each packaging article separately	For each carton, PE film and wooden pallet: opening empty + opening attached WIP/FG + opening reusable + new purchase + external return received = closing empty + closing attached WIP/FG + closing reusable + packaging accompanying gross physical outward shipment + return to external owner + waste. All terms use the same measured physical mass/configuration; each packaging form, part and destination is separate. Internal reuse cancels and does not create another purchase, net tube Q or automatic coproduct/credit. Actual packaging repair needs the real new component, removed old component, processing energy and their historical vectors.	schott-duran-tubing; jrc-ilcd-2010
b_species	chemical and physical completeness	Independently reconcile total physical mass and relevant Si B Na Al C H O and actual N S Mo element balances, including atmospheric/reactive gases and each external water destination. Melting emission cards are a shared site species ledger across all included emitting stages: retain disjoint source-stage subaccounts for furnace, Danner/muffle, lehr, cleaning and service releases and assign actual ownership before aggregation. Utility water vapour and bulk carrier-gas exits remain disjoint physical quantities. One residual cannot determine two unknowns; total B/NOx-as-NO2/SOx/COD/VOC/PM is not proof of molecular mass. Add each other actual substance, carrier gas, material, package, waste or return as a specific atomic row before dataset completion; unexplained residuals remain unknown, never other/zero.	jrc-glass-bref-2013
b_boric_reaction	boric-acid conversion and water destinations	The supported thermal pathway is H3BO3 → HBO2 + H2O, followed by 2 HBO2 → B2O3 + H2O. The net 2 H3BO3 → B2O3 + 3 H2O is only a complete-dehydration relationship, not a measured yield or purchased free-water quantity. Use assayed feed and independently determined conversion/retention and captured/emitted species; distinguish incomplete HBO2 retention from B2O3 retained in glass and actual boron volatilization. Keep free moisture, reaction water, hydrate/structural water and phase destinations separate. Do not infer both boron loss and water from one mass residual.	jrc-glass-bref-2013; us-borax-optibor-2026

silica sand (`silica`)

Receive the whole supplied silica sand; moisture and oxide/trace assays are subaccounts. Native Product identity is factory production mix, particles 0.020–3.350 mm; English route is crushing and magnetic separation while Chinese says crushing equipment and sand washing. Both route statements and the actual supplier processing must be reconciled, not silently harmonized. The polymorph synonyms are not permission to substitute every silica form. No fixed purity or supplier is established.

Boric acid (`boric_acid`)

Purchase H3BO3 crystals/powder as one complete supplied material; assay, adsorbed water and impurity fractions are not additional purchases. Native Product is primary production mix at plant with orthoboric-acid/trihydroxidoboron synonyms and a soluble white crystalline/powder comment. No numerical assay is fixed and no CAS field is supplied. The broad 35499 classification does not alter this chemical identity. Do not substitute B2O3, borax hydrate, solution or an elementary emission/resource row.

Sodium carbonate (`soda_ash`)

Measure the entire delivered soda ash and separately record Na2CO3 equivalent, moisture, hydration and contaminants. This native Product fixes 95% sodium carbonate, natural-alkali processing and chemical-plant supply; CAS 497-19-8 and carbonate synonyms are consistent, but its organic-carboxylic-acid classification is erroneous and is disclosed separately. Use this UUID only when those physical supply qualifiers match; it cannot stand for synthetic soda, a different assay or raw ground resource. No 95% recipe fraction is imposed on the glass.

alumina (`alumina`)

Receive the complete supplied Al2O3 powder and measure actual assay and free moisture. Native Product is Bayer-route production mix at plant; alumina/aluminium oxide/corundum synonyms and industrial-oxide comments support the identity, not a fixed crystal phase, particle size or purity. Its discussion of hydrated bauxite does not authorize replacing Al2O3 with Al(OH)3 or ore. No CAS is supplied; broad 35499 classification is not chemical proof. Match calcination/form and supplier before linkage.

Sodium nitrate crystals (`nitrate`)

Include the whole purchased NaNO3 charge whenever used for oxidation/fining, including cold-top electric-furnace control. Measure nitrate nitrogen and resulting species; do not infer zero NOx from absence of melting fuel. Potassium nitrate is a different atomic purchase and must be added separately if actual.

Same-composition borosilicate process cullet (`internal_cullet_in`)

Internal identified trim and rejected tube return; record source lot and retained exchange vector, then cancel the matching transfer. It is not an external zero-burden purchase, a second production output or soda-lime/float cullet. Separate external composition-verified cullet if a declared real route includes it; this base route uses virgin feed plus its own returns.

Alternating current (`batch_power`)

Meter receiving, conveying, weighing, mixing and local dust extraction; retain failed batches, empty operation and cleaning. Use this Product UUID only for CN grid-average consumption mix delivered to a below-1 kV user interface. It is not medium/high voltage, generator output or an evidenced regional or supplier-specific electricity product. Its native reference is Net calorific value/MJ; convert metered kWh by 3.6 MJ/kWh once. If an upstream medium-voltage purchase is already counted, this internal transformed supply is cancelled in aggregation and actual losses remain in that purchased electricity.

Alternating current (`melting_power`)

Record actual resistance melting, refining, conditioning and furnace auxiliaries, including holding and campaign start/stop. A cold-top electric melter is not a gas furnace with electric boost. Use this Product UUID only for CN grid-average consumption mix delivered to a 1–35 kV user interface. It is not a generator output, 35–330 kV or below-1 kV interface, regional supplier-specific mix or renewable contract. Its native reference is Net calorific value in MJ; use 1 kWh = 3.6 MJ, without assigning a combustion heating value to electricity or inferring transformation losses.

Molybdenum glass-melting electrode (`moly_electrode`)

Conditional actual molybdenum electrode replacement/consumption; weigh new and removed electrodes, retained installed stock, erosion and recovery. Preserve element Mo and each historical exchange vector independently of glass WIP; use actual installed-service consumption, not repeated full purchase every lot. Different electrode chemistry requires its own card.

Its reference property is Volume/m3, not Mass; report pressure, temperature, humidity and meter reference state. Never interpret its unit property coefficient as density. This internal utility carries measured compressor/dryer burdens and cancels at the combined gate; purchased compressed air instead carries its supplier service without duplicating onsite production.

Borosilicate glass (`finished`)

Exactly the newly first-quality-released cooled annealed straight unworked tubing, cut to declared raw stock lengths; weigh bare net mass in the declared temperature/moisture state. Q sums unique release events and excludes packaging. No numerical DURAN property, item mass or life is inherited. The Product identity denotes borosilicate glass with the official Chinese tube basename; native route “High temperature conductivity” and mix/location “At the chemical plant” remain binding compatibility qualifiers. Silica and boron trioxide are the glass-forming constituents and low expansion/thermal-shock comments are qualitative, not test thresholds. The native household-use examples do not identify a finished household article here. The native route label alone does not prove an electric furnace; this PCR selects resistive electric melting independently from process evidence. Confirm the actual tube, site stage and route before provider linkage; no generic glass, quartz tube, sheet, bead, cullet or recipe equivalence is implied.

Elementary flows

water vapour (`water_evaporation`)

Actual cooling-circuit or air-dryer H2O release to unspecified air, native CAS7732-18-5 and Mass/kg. Separate it from reaction/fuel water and collected liquid condensate. The broad isotope/ice synonyms do not establish isotope or phase conversion. Use a more specific actual air compartment when evidenced.

Process: Observed original-cohort post-release services (`services`)

Actual packing warehouse handling dispatch returns and breakage; separate account and service gate

Inputs

Product flows

Alternating current (`service_power`)

Actual post-release packing, warehouse, handling, dispatch, return inspection and powered breakage handling for the original release cohort; never create new Q from delivery, repacking or retesting. Use this Product UUID only for CN grid-average consumption mix delivered to a below-1 kV user interface. It is not medium/high voltage, generator output or an evidenced regional or supplier-specific electricity product. Its native reference is Net calorific value/MJ; convert metered kWh by 3.6 MJ/kWh once. If an upstream medium-voltage purchase is already counted, this internal transformed supply is cancelled in aggregation and actual losses remain in that purchased electricity.

Borosilicate glass (`returned_tube`)

Actual customer-returned original tube, identified to prior dispatch/release cohort; preserve the original production vector without reacquisition or new production. Repair increments and prior-dispatch reversals are separately traceable; if prior history is unknown do not issue a complete cohort result. The Product identity denotes borosilicate glass with the official Chinese tube basename; native route “High temperature conductivity” and mix/location “At the chemical plant” remain binding compatibility qualifiers. Silica and boron trioxide are the glass-forming constituents and low expansion/thermal-shock comments are qualitative, not test thresholds. The native household-use examples do not identify a finished household article here. The native route label alone does not prove an electric furnace; this PCR selects resistive electric melting independently from process evidence. Confirm the actual tube, site stage and route before provider linkage; no generic glass, quartz tube, sheet, bead, cullet or recipe equivalence is implied.

System boundary rules · 7

Rule ID	Applies to	Rule	Source IDs
`b_route`	applicability	Use the complete section1 manufacture route. Record upstream extraction/production and real transport of whole purchased materials and utilities with appropriate providers, not just received tube packaging. Internal batches/melt/cullet/air/water/electricity transfers retain vectors and cancel once at the combined gate. Supplier substitution never proves compatibility.	jrc-glass-bref-2013, schott-hot-forming
`b_release`	manufacturing and FG gates	Q is net kg of newly first-quality-released bare tube. Include opening/closing glass WIP and melt with inherited exchange vectors and every failed batch zero-output trial start-stop holding idle cleaning and rework load. Q already includes the same cohort closing FG; do not add closing FG to manufacturing production. The complete manufacturing physical gate includes opening raw material, WIP/melt and installed/spare material stocks plus actual external receipts = Q plus the corresponding closing unreleased raw/WIP/melt and installed/spare stocks plus all real external exits. Newly first-released closing FG is outside that manufacturing closing term and its full manufacturing exchange vector remains assigned to Q. Include reactive and bulk-gas inputs/releases where applicable; pair substage net withdrawals separately and never mix gross receipts with stock-corrected consumption.	jrc-glass-bref-2013, schott-duran-tubing
`b_service`	post-release service account	Keep actual original-cohort packing storage handling dispatch return inspection and incremental repair/breakage loads in a separate service account normalized to that original Q and observed interval. Track opening FG + newly released tube + actual customer-return receipts + each real service material/water input = closing FG + gross physical dispatch + actual scrap/other physical exits and species releases. Reconcile actual wet/dry tube changes, added water/material and removed glass/moisture independently; add each real exchange as a specific row and retain unworked-tube applicability. Return receipt or retest is not new Q. Preserve original-dispatch reversal, prior production vector and actual incremental repair vector; no complete return-cohort result with unknown history. Cancel internal first release Q when combining manufacturing and service physical gates; do not duplicate original production burdens.	schott-duran-tubing, jrc-ilcd-2010
`b_charge`	non-WIP stocks and services	Independently retain installed and spare electrodes refractories lubricant circuit water air receivers and any actually present process/refrigerant charge, with opening/closing physical stocks and each exchange-specific inherited historical vector. Actual measured consumption/service-equivalent accounting may replace a stock equation only on the same scope and without a second stock correction. New purchases physical receipt and installed consumption are different ledgers. For actual chillers steam boilers or other additional equipment add their true atomic exchanges; never presume they exist or erase them by a zero.	jrc-glass-bref-2013
`b_pack`	each packaging article separately	For each carton, PE film and wooden pallet: opening empty + opening attached WIP/FG + opening reusable + new purchase + external return received = closing empty + closing attached WIP/FG + closing reusable + packaging accompanying gross physical outward shipment + return to external owner + waste. All terms use the same measured physical mass/configuration; each packaging form, part and destination is separate. Internal reuse cancels and does not create another purchase, net tube Q or automatic coproduct/credit. Actual packaging repair needs the real new component, removed old component, processing energy and their historical vectors.	schott-duran-tubing, jrc-ilcd-2010
`b_species`	chemical and physical completeness	Independently reconcile total physical mass and relevant Si B Na Al C H O and actual N S Mo element balances, including atmospheric/reactive gases and each external water destination. Melting emission cards are a shared site species ledger across all included emitting stages: retain disjoint source-stage subaccounts for furnace, Danner/muffle, lehr, cleaning and service releases and assign actual ownership before aggregation. Utility water vapour and bulk carrier-gas exits remain disjoint physical quantities. One residual cannot determine two unknowns; total B/NOx-as-NO2/SOx/COD/VOC/PM is not proof of molecular mass. Add each other actual substance, carrier gas, material, package, waste or return as a specific atomic row before dataset completion; unexplained residuals remain unknown, never other/zero.	jrc-glass-bref-2013
`b_boric_reaction`	boric-acid conversion and water destinations	The supported thermal pathway is H3BO3 → HBO2 + H2O, followed by 2 HBO2 → B2O3 + H2O. The net 2 H3BO3 → B2O3 + 3 H2O is only a complete-dehydration relationship, not a measured yield or purchased free-water quantity. Use assayed feed and independently determined conversion/retention and captured/emitted species; distinguish incomplete HBO2 retention from B2O3 retained in glass and actual boron volatilization. Keep free moisture, reaction water, hydrate/structural water and phase destinations separate. Do not infer both boron loss and water from one mass residual.	jrc-glass-bref-2013, us-borax-optibor-2026

Allocation rules · 5

Rule ID	Applies to	Rule	Source IDs
`a_scope`	method applicability	Apply these allocation rules only to attributional cases where allocation is required under the declared study framework. First separate dedicated batches, product lines and services; use physical or virtual subdivision to assign exclusive materials and measured services. No free choice between system expansion and allocation is established by this PCR.	jrc-ilcd-2010
`a_causality`	remaining shared exchanges	For every genuinely inseparable shared exchange identify and quantify the determining physical causal relationship to each co-function. A shared meter may use measured actual duty, heat demand or material embodiment only where it causally determines that exchange. Mass, time or value alone is not automatically valid; different exchanges may require different physical relations. Preserve evidence and all non-selected relations.	jrc-ilcd-2010
`a_residual`	residual multifunctional process only	Only the residual exchanges left after dedicated assignment/virtual subdivision and determining physical causality may use contemporaneous real co-function market values in the same actual condition and amount at the common process gate. Derive gate values transparently if only downstream conditioned/packed/transported prices exist. State period currency state quantities evidence and sensitivity; do not use one downstream finished price for all functions, an arbitrary physical/economic choice or fixed percentages. Negative-value waste requires the applicable waste framework and cannot be assigned a fictional positive sale.	jrc-ilcd-2010
`a_returns`	internal returns scrap and packaging	Internal glass/dust/water/air/packaging transfers carry their original exchange vectors and cancel at the combined gate; they do not create an avoided-material credit or fresh production. An actual externally sold useful coproduct needs a verified function/status and separate quantity before allocation. Post-consumer waste-glass recycling and substitution credits are outside this virgin-feed manufacturing method and require their own framework.	jrc-ilcd-2010, jrc-glass-bref-2013
`asset_manufacture_conservation`	existing capital/reusable manufacture attribution	Within the applicable allocation decision context, original manufacture burden attributed across uses of actual capital equipment or reusable articles already included in foreground production, packaging or observed services uses one persistent same-asset ledger across all crops, products, cohorts, manufacturing/postrelease services, owners and observation periods. D is its supported whole installed service: all realized historical service plus supported remaining service in the same units as actual beneficiary use u; D must be finite and positive. Period capacity, remaining-only capacity, the physical asset/article mass alone, or current-period product Q alone is not D; supported whole-service throughput in mass units may be used when it demonstrates the causal service and matches u. This does not amortize the manufactured reference product over downstream life or change its declared reference gate/Q. The fractions u/D and all previously assigned manufacture shares together must never exceed 1. Changes of window, custody, provider or repair never restart the original manufacture balance. Replacements have distinct identities and only their real new manufacture vectors; actual repair and treatment increments remain separately accounted. Revised capacity evidence requires transparent reconciliation of prior shares and sensitivity, not a fresh ledger. Keep full physical mass and stock movements independent of burden shares. Unknown D, prior shares or beneficiary coverage requires review and no final manufacture-attributed amount; no assumed lifetime, utilization, zero or arbitrary division is permitted. For each existing collection protocol that attributes manufacture of included production, packaging or observed-service assets across uses in this route (excluding amortization of the manufactured reference product itself), additionally retain a durable asset identity, its measured full physical mass and acquisition/installation/retirement stock history, original manufacture burden vector, all historical and current beneficiaries, matched-unit service readings, the evidenced whole installed-service denominator D, supported remaining-service basis and uncertainty, prior assigned shares and remaining original manufacture balance. Carry the ledger across reporting windows and custody/provider changes. Collect actual repair, replacement, recovery and treatment separately; these records do not normalize physical movements or create an additional asset purchase. These are added fields and conservation obligations for the existing applicable protocols, not a new assumed capital inventory.

Validation rules · 8

Rule ID	Applies to	Rule	Source IDs
`v_identity`	reference and route	Declare every Required qualifier and satisfy the complete narrow route and native reference restrictions; waste sorting, quartz, sheet routes and downstream formed articles cannot resolve as this output.	unsd-cpc3-2025, jrc-glass-bref-2013, schott-hot-forming, schott-duran-tubing
`v_q`	first release and FG	The selected Product output row is finished with 1 kg net bare first-release tube. Q deduplicates release events and retains failures/zero output; FG, gross dispatch, returns and repair increments obey b_release/b_service and never create another Q.	jrc-glass-bref-2013, schott-duran-tubing
`v_once`	every numerator	Undivided raw records convert states/units/rates and allocate before normalize_once; every card and aggregation reads the same one stored result. Q=0 retains actual loads without a unit value; a failed query or unknown relation cannot become no-hit or pass.	jrc-glass-bref-2013, jrc-ilcd-2010
`v_mass_species`	full physical and chemical gates	Reconcile independent total mass and each relevant element; distinguish supplied chemical from oxide equivalent and free/reaction/phase/structural water. Retain every actual species/destination and unknown remainder. NOx/COD/VOC/total B are indicators, not arbitrary molecular masses.	jrc-glass-bref-2013
`v_stock`	WIP and non-WIP stocks	Opening/closing raw glass/melt WIP FG and installed/spare electrode/refractory/fluid/water/air or other actual charge records preserve independent physical stocks and exchange-specific inherited vectors. Manufacture closing excludes first-released FG, whose manufacturing vector remains in B_j_c^Q even when held. FG services retain original-dispatch reversals and actual repair additions/removals against original Q; combined gates cancel internal release transfers. Consumption-equivalent accounting and stock correction may not both consume the same stock.	jrc-glass-bref-2013, jrc-ilcd-2010
`v_pack`	every packaging article	All five physical movement directions and each opening/closing empty attached reusable stock reconcile by b_pack. Gross physical shipments control accompanying packages; internal reuse is not new purchase, tube Q or credit.	schott-duran-tubing, jrc-ilcd-2010
`v_allocation`	method and source traceability	Each cited source resolves to its full source record, keeps actual scope/countercontext and supports the stated rule. ILCD allocation remains limited to the declared attributional case and full hierarchy; engineering checks do not establish scientific approval, translation review, mapping or publication.	jrc-ilcd-2010, jrc-glass-bref-2013, schott-hot-forming, schott-duran-tubing, unsd-cpc3-2025
`validate_asset_manufacture_conservation`	existing capital/reusable manufacture attribution	For every included capital/reusable manufacture attribution verify same-asset continuity, whole installed service in matched units, all historical/current beneficiaries, prior assigned manufacture shares and cumulative share <= 1. Reject a reset by period, cohort, provider, owner or repair. Check distinct real replacement and incremental repair/treatment vectors separately and preserve gross physical mass. A missing denominator, unexplained previous allocation or incomplete beneficiary ledger requires explicit review and an unavailable final attributed amount; structural inspection cannot claim empirical completeness.
