Abstract: With international brands enforcing strict Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) requirements, aluminum processing manufacturers must fulfill their Duty of Care to meet end-customer expectations, particularly in urgently reducing carbon emissions during production. Accurate real-time carbon data collection enables aluminum processing plants to immediately enhance carbon efficiency and fulfill their Duty of Care obligations demanded by end users. This study explores a real-time carbon data collection system designed to precisely assess the carbon footprint of each production batch. Through the case study of an aluminum processing plant, we demonstrate how real-time data technologies can be applied to improve carbon efficiency, reduce emission errors, and continuously optimize production processes. The results show that real-time data collection significantly enhances carbon management in aluminum processing and supports better control of carbon emissions across different stages of the product life cycle. Â JEL classification numbers: L0, L7.
