Emission factors where none exist.
When a suitable greenhouse gas emission factor cannot be found, DEISO GHG Kata works from the process itself. Chemistry, fuels, heat, electricity and other relevant process inputs become the basis for a traceable emission-factor estimate.
Instead of stopping at a missing database value or relying only on a distant proxy, DEISO GHG Kata gives you a structured path from process data to a result you can inspect, compare and refine.

Industrial carbon modelling often reaches the same barrier: the process exists, but a suitable emission factor does not.
Specialty chemicals, local materials, new production routes and new plant designs are not always represented in conventional emission-factor databases. The usual response is to search for the closest available proxy.
But a proxy describes another process. DEISO GHG Kata takes a different route. It works from the process itself and calculates from chemistry, fuels, heat, electricity and other relevant inputs that create the emissions.
DEISO Kata turns missing emission-factor data from a modelling dead end into a structured estimation workflow.
DEISO GHG Kata combines emission-factor generation, uncertainty analysis, sensitivity testing, Monte Carlo simulation, bulk estimation, reporting and direct openLCA integration inside one technical workflow.
Build an emission-factor estimate from the process itself when a suitable database factor is unavailable. DEISO GHG Kata works from chemistry, fuels, heat, electricity and other relevant process inputs.
Replace the missing-factor gap with a process-based estimate.Change each input by 10%, 20% or its own standard deviation and run the complete calculation again. The resulting chart shows which variables have the greatest influence on the emission factor.
See where better plant data can change the result most.Run the case 1,000, 10,000 or 50,000 times while all relevant inputs vary within their uncertainty. See the mean, median, percentiles and the shape of the resulting distribution.
Move beyond one estimate and understand the distribution around it.DEISO GHG Kata creates a new process directly in the open openLCA database, with the product as output and the calculated greenhouse gases written as emissions to air.
No intermediate manual file import is required for the openLCA write.Turn results, Sensitivity Analysis and Monte Carlo simulation into reports that preserve the analytical detail behind the work. Prepare the report for email without rebuilding the analysis in another application.
Move from technical analysis to client-ready communication faster.Load many complete processes from one batch file and run them together. Use it for product ranges, alternative fuels, process variants or large sets of cases that would be inefficient to build and run one by one.
Scale DEISO GHG Kata from one process to an entire portfolio of cases.Inspect the equations and values used by the engine, see where emissions originate and review the assumptions that affect the estimate instead of receiving only one unexplained final number.
Make the estimate easier to review, challenge and refine.Read the emission factor with its standard deviation and 95% interval, then compare the estimate with plant measurements or database values to see whether the reference falls inside or outside the expected range.
Know not only the estimate, but how strongly the evidence supports it.DEISO GHG Kata can generate the missing factor, run a portfolio of processes, identify the variables that matter, simulate uncertainty, compare against reference data, create reports and place the generated process directly into openLCA — without breaking the work into a chain of disconnected tools.
DEISO GHG Kata is most useful when the process is real but the emission factor is missing, too generic or based on a process that does not represent what you actually operate.
Model chemical processes from feed, product yield, reactions, energy use and other relevant inputs when the exact chemical or production route is missing from conventional datasets.
Estimate the process you actually operate instead of substituting a distant proxy.Build an emission-factor estimate for locally produced materials when available databases describe another geography, another technology or a materially different production route.
Replace geographic approximation with process-specific information.Estimate a proposed process from its expected chemistry, fuels, heat, electricity and operating assumptions before an established dataset exists for the plant configuration.
Put a GHG estimate around a process before database coverage catches up.Combine reaction chemistry with process heat, fuels and electricity for carbonate-based and other high-temperature processes where emissions come from both energy use and the material itself.
Keep process emissions and energy emissions inside one estimation model.Use measured carbon content and heating value for fuels that are not represented by a standard library, including plant fuel gas and special residues.
Model the fuel composition you actually burn.Run many cases together to compare a product range, the same process with different fuels or multiple process configurations without rebuilding each case one by one.
Move from one estimate to portfolio-level comparison.Explore the workflow from process inputs and GHG estimation to uncertainty analysis, Monte Carlo simulation and results.
DEISO GHG Kata takes the generated emission factor through uncertainty, sensitivity testing, simulation, comparison and reporting so the result can be understood before it is used.
Read the estimated greenhouse gas emissions per functional unit and see the contribution of each source that created the final result.
One result, with the process behind it still visible.Review the standard deviation and 95% interval alongside the estimate, so uncertainty is visible rather than hidden behind one apparently exact number.
See how precise the estimate is before using it.Change process inputs and rerun the full calculation to reveal which variables move the emission factor most.
Know where better plant data can improve the estimate most.Vary the relevant inputs within their uncertainty and recalculate the process repeatedly to see the spread, percentiles and shape of possible outcomes.
Understand the distribution around the estimate, not only its centre.Place a reference factor beside the generated result and see where it falls against the estimate and its uncertainty range.
Large differences can point to missing inputs or a genuinely different process.Turn the result, sensitivity analysis or Monte Carlo simulation into shareable outputs for technical review, internal communication or client work.
Move from analysis to communication without rebuilding the result.Use the generated emission factor manually in other LCA, carbon-accounting, spreadsheet or modelling software whenever that is the preferred workflow.
DEISO GHG Kata can create the process directly in the open openLCA database, with the product as output and the calculated greenhouse gases written as emissions to air — without an intermediate manual file import.
DEISO GHG Kata gives teams a desktop working environment for building cases, analysing results, keeping project history and controlling where working data, exports and backups are stored.
Cases and working data are stored in the application data folder on the computer running DEISO GHG Kata rather than being automatically transferred to DEISO.
Work with process information inside your own computing environment.When sync is required, DEISO GHG Kata can use a folder you select in services such as OneDrive, Dropbox or Google Drive. Cases, history, comparisons and related working information can then remain aligned between computers using that folder.
You choose the location used for synchronisation.DEISO GHG Kata can keep a copy of working data at a specific point in time, giving users a restore point before major changes or data restoration.
Keep a recoverable point before changing important project data.Backups can be written to a folder selected by the user and restored later when required. Backup schedules can also be configured inside DEISO GHG Kata.
Keep an independent recovery copy of your modelling work.Results can be exported to formats such as PDF, Excel and CSV, while the export folder can be selected from the application settings.
Keep generated files in the project or document structure you already use.DEISO GHG Kata retains cases and calculation history so teams can return to previous runs, compare work and keep exported outputs connected to the analysis that produced them.
Keep the modelling workflow organised beyond a single calculation.DEISO GHG Kata can operate as a client-side working environment where the organisation controls its process data, optional sync location, backups and exported files.
DEISO GHG Kata combines visible calculation logic with detailed technical documentation and built-in learning resources, so users can understand both the result and how the engine reaches it.
Calculations use physical constants, fuel compositions, reaction chemistry, process inputs, IPCC calculation methods, IPCC AR6 GWP values, the GHG Protocol Product Standard and ISO 14067 where applicable.
DEISO GHG Kata comes with a dedicated Method Guide covering equations, constants, calculation logic, technical assumptions, worked examples and method validation.
A dedicated User Guide walks through the software workflow, process inputs, estimation, results, sensitivity analysis, Monte Carlo simulation, exports, openLCA and other functions.
Guidance is available inside DEISO GHG Kata through its searchable Help Centre, helping users find explanations, workflow steps, form fields and technical terminology while working in the application.
