# Environmental accounting for manufacture of ceremonial swords with matched scabbards

## 1. Scope and Applicability

This candidate authored methodology accounts for the environmental foreground of a new configured ceremonial sword delivered with one matched scabbard, beginning at declared finished-component supply gates and ending at accepted complete product packing. It collects procurement, actual attributed plant utilities, individually characterized waste and measured releases. It provides no weapon design, production parameters, performance optimization, operating or assembly instructions. The process map is an environmental record grouping only. The representative boundary requires actual completed-component supply records; it is not a claim that every manufacturer purchases these components. Earlier production, including in-house earlier component production, must be separately linked once.

Existing knife/scissor PCRs concern cutting products and table cutlery PCRs concern food handling; neither establishes this complete ceremonial product with matched scabbard. The distinct methodological need is to reconcile component supply gates, the complete delivery configuration and scabbard inclusion in measured net M while excluding service and functional-performance claims. UNSD44750 is broader than this scope; this draft creates no accepted classification mapping.

Exclude separately sold blades/scabbards, other44750 arms, food/cutting tools, refurbishment/repair services, ceremonial use, transport after dispatch and end-of-life. No sharpness, hardness, strength, life or harmlessness is inferred from ceremonial purpose. Actual site processes or materials beyond the declared completed-component foreground require additional specific exchanges and records before extending a coverage claim. Independent scientific review remains pending.

## 5. System Boundary

### Boundary Abstraction

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| declared_starting_condition | Finished blade, single physically complete hilt module and single finished matched scabbard at actual supplier gates |
| starting_condition_role | manufacturing_input |
| product_classification_scope | CPC44750 narrower ceremonial complete-product context |
| recursive_input_rule | Link preceding component manufacture once; do not count both finished components and their upstream constituent materials inside this foreground |
| upstream_dataset_requirement | Actual matching supplier production, utilities and treatment links are required before complete lifecycle coverage claims |
| disclosure | Finished-component-to-accepted-product foreground, not complete cradle-to-gate; sources supply no measured factory inventory |

### Boundary Rules

| rule_id | Applies to | Rule | source_ids |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `boundary_foreground` | all_processes | Include all actual attributable activity within declared site gates, including handling, utilities, rejected/reworked consumption and packing. Record environmental quantities without mechanical manufacturing instructions. Earlier manufacturing inside the same plant is a separately linked upstream stage, not an omitted burden. |  |
| `boundary_conditional` | cleaning | Cleaning is conditional on actual records. Aqueous and IPA exchanges are separate; neither is compulsory. Other actual reagents/utilities/wastes need their own specific cards before extending coverage. |  |
| `boundary_output` | finished_ceremonial_set | Include exactly the declared sword and one matched scabbard in net M; exclude transport packaging, display supports, spares and separately supplied accessories. Declare additional retained coating/residue without double-counting supplier inclusion. |  |

## 7. Allocation and Co-product Handling

| rule_id | Applies to | Rule | source_ids |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `allocation_causal` | all_processes | Avoid allocation by separate job/utility/stock records for each accepted configuration. Shared actual consumption uses documented causal metering, observed machine time/load or handling records; accepted counts only when comparable actual loads justify it. Record total, driver, denominator, assigned shares and sensitivity; no default mass or economic allocation between sword and scabbard delivered as one reference set. |  |
| `allocation_waste` | specific waste | Rejected/reworked consumption remains attributed to accepted production; unknown quantities are not zero. Waste transfers carry no automatic avoided-production credit. If actual co-products exist, document substitution-free allocation and receivers in a separate specified model before application. |  |

## 8. Foreground Data Collection, Calculation, and Quality Rules

### Data Collection Protocols

| `cp_stock` | all_processes | specific supplied input | original issue/return and supplier records | one physical specification; composition/supply state; measured net kg; issue/return/stock change; accepted count | Measure each actual supplied input kg, including retained supplied residues once; reconcile returns and stock changes. Water volume conversion requires actual density evidence, not assumed1 kg/L. | kg | each transfer and actual period | actual declared period | declared site and supplied-component gates | actual attributed input kg / accepted units of the same configuration | scale/supplier/SDS/stock records |
| `cp_energy` | all_processes | electricity | actual calibrated operation meters | process/job; provider/voltage; kWh start/end; handling/idle/ventilation/rework; causal shared-load records; accepted count | Read actual meter coverage, convert kWh to MJ using3.6 MJ/kWh, attribute shared consumption once using causal records. | MJ | actual period and shared-load changes | actual declared period | declared site and supplied-component gates | actual attributed MJ / accepted units of the same configuration | meter calibration and allocation observations |
| `cp_waste` | all_processes | specific characterized waste | receiver manifests and original weights | one physical waste; actual composition/contamination; net kg; reusable returns; receiver/status; accepted count | Weigh each distinct collected waste after controlled tare, record composition and receiver; keep liquid effluent separate from elementary water releases. | kg | each actual transfer | actual declared period | declared site and supplied-component gates | actual transferred waste kg / accepted units of the same configuration | original weights/composition/receiver receipts |
| `cp_emission` | cleaning | ipa_air | matched sampling or closed solvent balance | CAS67-63-0; air submedium; concentration/flow/time; issue/recovery/retention/residue; detection/uncertainty; accepted count | Measure actual outdoor residual IPA using matched species sampling or a complete documented solvent balance; unexplained residual is not an assumed emission. | kg | actual cleaning period | actual declared period | declared site and supplied-component gates | actual released kg / accepted units of the same configuration | sampling calibration and complete balance |

### Calculation Rules

| rule_id | Applies to | Formula or rule | Inputs | Output | source_ids |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `normalize_mass` | all inventory rows | q_ref = q_item / M; q_item = exchange amount per one accepted finished unit; q_ref = exchange amount per 1 kg reference flow. | q_item; M; cp_mass | q_ref |  |

### Data Quality Requirements

| requirement_id | Applies to | Requirement | Evidence |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `configuration_mass` | cp_mass; finished_ceremonial_set | Complete unit here means the sword plus one matched scabbard. Independently weigh each supplied component and the accepted complete set on scales of suitable actual capacity/resolution, with calibration and zero/tare/net originals. Reconcile installed component kg plus actual retained additions to positive M kg; packaging/display fixtures are excluded. No catalogue mass, assumed per-unit weight or functional geometry substitutes. Declare included supplier coatings/residues and avoid counting twice. | cp_mass; cp_stock; signed supply acceptance |
| `actual_period` | all protocols | Use actual accepted counts of the same configuration and declared period to collect q_item. Retain rejected/reworked consumption in numerator; paired M is physically measured for that population. Record stock changes and nonproduction utility attribution; do not pool materially different configurations. | actual job/count/meter records |
| `balance_coverage` | all exchanges | Reconcile each physical supplied component to accepted retained kg, returns, stock change and specific waste; reconcile solvent issue/recovery/retention/residue/release with uncertainty. Additional actual glue, lubricant, wiping cloth, plating/coating inputs, heat, compressed air or other physical waste/release requires individual specified exchanges and evidence. No missing stage is treated as zero, and no mandatory process is inferred from a catalogue. This boundary does not offer a manufacturing recipe. | actual plant activity register and balances |
| `source_limits` | external evidence | UNSD printed/PDF239 provides broad44750 title only. Windlass undated About Us supports dress-product and separate refurbishment context, not factory measurements. WKC publisher-retained historical catalogue PDF3 is a historical ceremonial sword/scabbard supply example only; no present process, quality certification, quantity or lifetime transferred. The finished-component boundary is an authored modelling choice requiring actual supplier records. Upstream PE film use requires actual material and supply-route matching. | unsd-cpc3; windlass-scope; wkc-historical |

## 9. Validation Rules

| rule_id | Applies to | Rule | source_ids |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `validation_reference` | reference_flow | Verify exact reference/output name and UUID, actual declared ceremonial configuration with one matched scabbard, physically measured positive complete M and independent component reconciliation. |  |
| `validation_scope` | all_processes | Verify completed-component supply gates and earlier linked production; utilities and actual conditional cleaning/waste records are covered without mechanical instructions. Do not claim complete cradle-to-gate while upstream or additional actual site exchanges remain absent. |  |
| `validation_identity` | all flow rows | Verify public type, actual reference property/unit group and official bilingual names; the adopted electricity identity has CN supply geography and <1kV user-side grid-average route, requiring matching actual procurement. Different geography/provider/route needs its own matched identity. Distinguish purchased liquid IPA from elementary IPA; supplied industrial water from resource water or wastewater; collected effluent from direct discharge. Keep unmatched concrete rows blank with declared reasons. |  |
| `validation_claims` | dataset claims | Mechanical consistency pass does not establish measured factory data, weapon performance, complete lifecycle coverage, publication or scientific approval. Disclose unresolved identities, measurements, links and uncertainty; distinguish unknown, not-applicable and below-detection values. |  |

## 10. Published Dataset Profile

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| dataset_role | Configured ceremonial sword/scabbard manufacturing environmental foreground; this heading implies no publication |
| downstream_use | secondary_dataset; background_dataset |
| allowed_use | Matching completed-component foreground or linked ceremonial product manufacturing model scaled by actual M |
| excluded_use | Weapon design, performance, operating instructions, other arms, ordinary cutlery, repair/use/life claims |
| required_metadata | Configuration/specification revision, ceremonial supply purpose, matched scabbard, actual component composition/net weights/retained additions, complete M, packaging scope, plant/period/count, supplier gates, linked upstream/receiver identities and causal allocations |
| required_quality_disclosure | All identity/measurement/link/site coverage gaps, source historical limits, balance uncertainty and allocation sensitivity; independent scientific review pending |
| update_trigger | Supply configuration/composition/state/gate, plant utility provider, waste receiver, actual processing or measurement basis changes |
