Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of carbon emission technology, and in particular to a method, system, equipment and medium for processing carbon emission data in an enterprise value chain. Background Technology
[0002] Under the current global trend towards carbon neutrality, managing carbon emissions (Scope 3) across the enterprise value chain has become a core challenge in emission reduction efforts. Existing technological solutions have significant limitations: First, integrating multi-source data is difficult. External parameters relied upon for carbon emission calculations (such as third-party coefficient libraries), internal operational data (such as procurement, production, and logistics records), and manually supplemented data are scattered across heterogeneous systems. Due to semantic differences in fields, cross-platform data fragmentation occurs, requiring significant manual cleaning and alignment. Second, supplier data application is inefficient. Although some suppliers can provide actual carbon emission values, insufficient feedback rates and inconsistent formats make them difficult to use directly. When data is missing, traditional methods can only use static theoretical coefficients for calculation, failing to adapt to the dynamic hierarchical relationships of product material structures.
[0003] Therefore, existing carbon emission reports are mostly offline composites, unable to dynamically link multi-dimensional information such as suppliers, material categories, and transportation routes, and also unable to pinpoint carbon emission hotspots in real time. This makes it difficult for companies to accurately quantify emissions and even more difficult to effectively formulate emission reduction strategies. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention provides a method, system, device, and medium for processing carbon emission data in the enterprise value chain, in order to solve the technical problems of existing carbon emission reports that cannot dynamically link multi-dimensional information such as suppliers, material categories, and transportation routes, and are also difficult to locate carbon emission hotspots in real time.
[0005] This application provides a method for processing carbon emission data in an enterprise value chain.

[0006] In one embodiment of this application, the step of calculating the corresponding theoretical carbon emissions based on the carbon footprint topology of the target product includes: extracting element behavior data of corresponding levels from the internal business system according to the material hierarchy of the target product, wherein the element behavior data includes element identification information and corresponding quantitative values of each value chain element; matching the element identification information with a preset carbon emission coefficient library to obtain the target carbon emission coefficient corresponding to each element identification; calculating the quantitative values of each value chain element and the corresponding target carbon emission coefficient to obtain the carbon emissions of various elements; and summing the carbon emissions of all single-type elements associated with the target product to generate the theoretical carbon emissions.

[0009] In one embodiment of this application, the collection of raw data for calculating the carbon emissions of a target commodity includes at least one of the following: obtaining the carbon emission parameters from an external data platform, wherein the carbon emission parameters include the unit carbon emission coefficient of the material, transportation distance parameters, and travel activity carbon emission coefficients; extracting the business activity data from an internal business system, wherein the business activity data includes material weight information in purchase orders, transportation mode information in product shipment records, and commuting information in employee attendance records; and receiving supplementary data through a human-machine interface, wherein the supplementary data includes carbon emission values not provided by the supplier and product energy consumption test results issued by a third-party institution.
[0010] In one embodiment of this application, generating a carbon emission distribution visualization report for the target product includes: extracting the calculation results of the actual and theoretical carbon emissions associated with the target product; aggregating carbon emission data based on preset dimensions to generate a multi-level visualization chart, wherein the dimensions include value chain element types, emission stages, and geographical regions; the multi-level structure includes: a first-level view showing the total carbon emission distribution of the target product throughout its entire product lifecycle; a second-level view showing the carbon emission proportion of each emission stage; and a third-level view showing the ranking of carbon emission contributions of different value chain elements within each emission stage; wherein the emission stages include raw material acquisition, manufacturing, transportation and warehousing, product use, and end-of-life disposal; and outputting an interactive report containing the visualization chart, wherein the interactive report supports dynamic comparative analysis based on geographical regions or time periods.

When identifying supplier data, the actual carbon emission values returned by the supplier are used first. If data is missing, the theoretical carbon emission is dynamically calculated layer by layer through the product material structure. This approach breaks through the limitations of relying on static coefficients in the traditional model, thereby achieving simultaneous optimization of the calculation coverage and accuracy of carbon emission data. Finally, a multi-dimensional carbon emission distribution visualization report is generated based on a unified data set, which locates carbon emission hotspots in real time at the supplier, material category, and transportation route dimensions, providing a more favorable basis for enterprises to make precise emission reduction decisions. This solution replaces manual intervention with full-chain automated management, not only meeting the requirements of international carbon accounting standards, but also systematically solving the problem of data fragmentation and visualization disconnect in Range 3 carbon emissions.

[0022] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the content disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments. Various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0023] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of the present invention. The drawings only show the components related to the present invention and are not drawn according to the actual number, shape and size of the components in the actual implementation. In the actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.
[0024] In the following description, numerous details are explored to provide a more thorough explanation of embodiments of the invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that embodiments of the invention may be practiced without these specific details. In other embodiments, well-known structures and devices are shown in block diagram form rather than in detail to avoid obscuring embodiments of the invention.
[0025] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the implementation environment of a corporate value chain carbon emission data processing method provided in an embodiment of the present invention.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, the implementation environment for the enterprise value chain carbon emission data processing method includes a data acquisition module 101 and a computer device 102.
[0027] The enterprise-localized data acquisition module 101 integrates raw data through a three-way channel: an external platform adapter automatically acquires international standard carbon footprint parameters and geographical transportation information; an internal system parser connects in real time to business databases such as procurement, production, and logistics to extract details of business activities; and a manual calibration interface supports structured input of third-party reports and missing data. All data, after unified identification mapping and anomaly filtering, is transmitted to cloud computing devices via an encrypted link to ensure cross-system field semantic consistency and eliminate data silos.
[0028] Computer Equipment 102 operates on a three-layer engine-driven processing flow: the data governance engine constructs standardized datasets using knowledge graphs, dynamically linking key fields such as purchase order numbers and material codes; the dual-mode calculation engine prioritizes actual carbon emission values returned by suppliers, and when these are missing, it performs theoretical calculations layer by layer based on the product's material structure, intelligently matching a dynamic coefficient library; the visualization decision engine compiles and generates multi-dimensional carbon emission distribution reports, identifying supplier contributions, material hotspots, and analyzing transportation routes. After edge nodes execute feedback commands, new data triggers cloud-based recalibration and report optimization, forming a closed loop of "collection-computation-visualization-feedback." At the hardware level, industrial-grade data security is achieved through edge computing nodes, while the cloud computing cluster provides accelerated knowledge reasoning and coefficient matching capabilities, systematically solving the data fragmentation problem of range 3 carbon emissions.
[0029] In existing technologies, enterprise value chain carbon emission management faces challenges such as difficulties in integrating multi-source data and inefficient application of supplier data. Carbon emission calculation requires the integration of external parameters, internal operational data, and manually supplemented data, but this data is scattered across heterogeneous systems, and semantic differences in fields lead to data fragmentation across platforms. Supplier-provided carbon emission data suffers from low feedback rates and inconsistent formats. When data is missing, traditional methods use static theoretical coefficients for calculation, failing to reflect the actual material structure of the product. This results in carbon emission reports that are mostly offline patchwork results, making it difficult to dynamically correlate multi-dimensional information and accurately pinpoint carbon emission hotspots. For example, a manufacturing company needs to calculate the carbon emissions of a certain product, but due to inconsistent data fields between the procurement and logistics systems, it cannot automatically correlate material weight and transportation distance. Furthermore, key suppliers fail to provide carbon emission data, causing the calculated results to deviate from reality.
[0030] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes a method for processing carbon emission data across enterprise value chains. The method includes: collecting raw data for calculating the carbon emissions of a target product, including carbon emission parameters from an external data platform, operational data from internal business systems, and supplementary data from human-machine interfaces; establishing relationships between fields from different sources within the raw data to generate a cross-system data set with a unified identifier; identifying supplier data within the data set; if the supplier data includes carbon emission values, these values are determined as the actual carbon emissions; if the supplier data does not include carbon emission values, the corresponding theoretical carbon emissions are calculated based on the carbon footprint topology of the target product; and generating a visualization report of the carbon emission distribution of the target product based on the actual or theoretical carbon emissions.
[0031] The raw data refers to all the basic data required to calculate carbon emissions. This can be achieved through API interfaces connecting to external platforms, database connections to internal systems, and manual data entry interfaces receiving supplementary data, covering key information such as material coefficients and transportation parameters. The relationships refer to the logical correspondence between data fields in different systems. This can be achieved by standardizing field names and converting field identifiers using preset mapping rules. For example, mapping "material code" in the procurement system and "product number" in the logistics system to "material ID". The dataset refers to the integrated dataset after association processing. This can be achieved by using ETL tools to perform data cleaning and transformation processes, forming structured data storage containing uniformly formatted identifier fields. The carbon footprint topology refers to the network model of the hierarchical relationships between product materials. This can be achieved using BOM parsing and supply chain mapping technologies, reflecting the complete flow path from raw materials and components to finished products.
[0032] Specifically, when calculating the carbon emissions of an electronic product, the system first obtains the unit carbon emission coefficient for metal materials from an external platform, extracts component weight data from the purchase order in the internal ERP system, and supplements it with energy consumption values for packaging materials obtained from third-party testing via a human-machine interface. Next, the "component number" in the procurement system and the "part code" in the logistics system are uniformly converted into "material IDs," establishing a correlation with transportation distance and supplier IDs. When an anomaly is detected in the weight data of a batch of battery components, it is automatically marked for manual review. If a supplier has provided actual carbon emission measurement data for the battery production process, this actual value is directly used. For plastic casing suppliers that have not provided data, the system analyzes the hierarchical relationship of casing raw materials according to the product BOM, matching the carbon emission coefficient of the injection molding process for calculation. Finally, the carbon emission data from each stage is aggregated according to raw material acquisition, manufacturing, and other stages, generating interactive visual charts that display the carbon emission percentage and key emission sources at each stage.
[0033] Understandably, through the above technical solutions, this application solves the problem of difficult multi-source data integration, realizes automatic correlation and anomaly detection of cross-system data, and reduces the workload of manual data cleaning. By prioritizing the use of actual supplier data combined with dynamic theoretical calculations, the accuracy of carbon emission quantification is improved. The generated interactive visualization report supports multi-dimensional data analysis, helping enterprises quickly locate high-emission links and providing data support for optimizing supply chain carbon management.
[0034] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating an exemplary embodiment of the enterprise value chain carbon emission data processing method of this application.
[0035] like Figure 2 As shown, in an exemplary embodiment, the enterprise value chain carbon emission data processing method includes at least steps S210 to S240, which are described in detail below:
[0036] Step S210: Collect raw data for calculating the carbon emissions of the target product. The raw data includes carbon emission parameters from an external data platform, operational data from an internal business system, and supplementary data from a human-machine interface.
[0037] In one embodiment of this application, the collection of raw data for calculating the carbon emissions of the target commodity includes: obtaining carbon emission parameters from an external data platform, wherein the carbon emission parameters include the unit carbon emission coefficient of the material, transportation distance parameters, and travel activity carbon emission coefficient; extracting operational activity data from an internal business system, wherein the operational activity data includes material weight information in purchase orders, transportation mode information in product shipment records, and commuting information in employee attendance records; and receiving supplementary data through a human-machine interface, wherein the supplementary data includes carbon emission values not provided by the supplier and product energy consumption test results issued by a third-party organization.
[0038] In one specific embodiment of this application, the method of collecting raw data for calculating the carbon emissions of a target commodity is further proposed, including obtaining carbon emission parameters from an external data platform, extracting operational activity data from an internal business system, and receiving supplementary data through a human-machine interface.
[0039] The external data platform refers to third-party data sources used to obtain standardized carbon emission parameters. This can be achieved through API interface integration to ensure the authority and consistency of basic data such as material unit emission factors and transportation distance parameters. The internal business system refers to the enterprise's internal business management systems for procurement, production, and logistics. This can be achieved through database queries or middleware integration to extract structured data such as material weight and transportation methods from purchase orders, avoiding errors from manual data entry. The human-machine interface is a supplementary channel for receiving unstructured or missing data. This can be achieved through web forms or file uploads to fill gaps in carbon emission figures not provided by suppliers and third-party test results.
[0040] Specifically, a multi-dimensional data collection system is constructed, implementing source-specific and targeted collection of external parameters, internal operational data, and manually supplemented data. The external data platform obtains basic data such as unit carbon emission coefficients and transportation parameters for materials through standardized interfaces, resolving cross-platform data semantic differences. Internal business systems extract operational activity data such as material weight and transportation methods from purchase orders through automated integration mechanisms, ensuring the real-time nature and accuracy of data acquisition. The human-machine interface receives carbon emission values not provided by suppliers and third-party test results through an interactive input interface, supplementing data gaps not covered by automatic system collection. Through the collaborative collection of these three data sources, a unified input covering all data types is formed, eliminating data fragmentation between heterogeneous systems.
[0041] Understandably, through the above technical solution, this application solves the problem of difficult multi-source data integration, achieving unified collection of external parameters, internal operational data, and manually supplemented data, ensuring the integrity and consistency of the data required for carbon emission calculation. Automated interface integration reduces manual data processing costs, and human-machine interface supplements missing data, improving the rate of data return and utilization from suppliers, thus providing a reliable data foundation for subsequent carbon emission calculations.
[0042] Step S220: Establish the relationships between fields from different sources in the original data to generate a cross-system data set with a unified identifier.
[0043] In one embodiment of this application, establishing associations between fields from different sources in the original data to generate a cross-system data set with a unified identifier includes: performing standardization processing on field names in the original data, converting field names from different source systems into identifier fields of a unified format according to preset mapping rules; associating purchase order data, shipping document data, and product design data in the original data according to the material number of the target product, establishing a correspondence between the material number and the supplier number, product weight unit, and transportation distance fields; performing anomaly identification on the original data, and generating a manual review mark if the weight value is less than a preset first threshold, the transportation distance exceeds a preset second threshold, or a key field is empty, so as to perform data review based on the manual review mark; and performing data extraction, transformation, and loading processes on the data that has undergone field association processing and anomaly identification according to a preset cycle, and outputting a data set containing identifier fields of a unified format.
[0044] In one specific implementation of this application, the field name standardization process refers to aligning the semantics of fields in heterogeneous systems through a pre-defined mapping table. This can be achieved using regular expression matching or natural language processing techniques, such as mapping "prod_weight" to "material weight," eliminating naming differences between different systems. The material number association mechanism uses this unique identifier as an index for data association, which can be implemented using database foreign key constraints or graph database node connections. For example, it can horizontally associate supplier information in a purchase order with path parameters in a transport document using the material number. The anomaly identification rules refer to setting numerical validity thresholds based on business logic, including a pre-defined first threshold and a pre-defined second threshold. This can be implemented using a rule engine or machine learning model, such as setting a maximum transport distance of 5000 kilometers to automatically mark data exceeding the limit and trigger a review process. The data extraction, transformation, and loading process refers to periodically performing ETL operations, which can be implemented using Apache NiFi or Informatica tools. For example, incremental data synchronization can be performed daily at midnight to ensure the timeliness of the data set. The preset first threshold and the preset second threshold are both set values obtained based on actual production experience. Their values are usually specific values greater than or equal to 0. This application does not impose any restrictions on their setting method or specific values.
[0045] Specifically, during the data integration process, the first step is to unify field names from different sources into standardized identifiers using mapping rules. For example, "product net weight" in the internal system and "net_weight" on the external platform are uniformly mapped to "material weight". Next, based on the core identifier of the material number, supplier numbers scattered in purchase orders, transportation distances in shipping documents, and weight units in product design data are associated to form a cross-system data relationship network. Subsequently, through preset anomaly detection rules, data that violates business logic, such as negative weight values or excessively long transportation distances, is automatically flagged. For example, when a record with a transportation distance of 10,000 kilometers is detected, a review flag is generated, and the data is paused from entering the calculation process. Finally, through a timed ETL process, the standardized and anomaly-detected data is loaded into the target database, forming a data set with unified identifiers and controllable quality.
[0046] Understandably, through the above technical solutions, this application has achieved automated integration and quality control of multi-source data, and solved the problem of data fragmentation caused by differences in field semantics. For example, it links data that were originally scattered in the procurement system and logistics system into a complete data chain through a unified identifier; it reduces the interference of erroneous data on subsequent carbon emission calculations through anomaly identification rules, such as automatically intercepting abnormal transportation distance data to avoid distortion of calculation results; and it ensures the continuous updating capability of the data set through periodic ETL processes, such as synchronizing newly added supplier data daily to support dynamic analysis needs.
[0047] Step S230: Identify supplier data in the dataset. If the supplier data includes carbon emission values, then determine the carbon emission values as the actual carbon emissions. If the supplier data does not include carbon emission values, then calculate the corresponding theoretical carbon emissions based on the carbon footprint topology of the target product.
[0048] In one embodiment of this application, calculating the corresponding theoretical carbon emissions based on the carbon footprint topology of a target product includes: extracting element behavior data of corresponding levels from the internal business system according to the material hierarchy of the target product, wherein the element behavior data includes element identification information and corresponding quantitative values of value chain elements; matching the element identification information with a preset carbon emission coefficient library to obtain the target carbon emission coefficient corresponding to each element identification; calculating the quantitative values of each value chain element and the corresponding target carbon emission coefficient to obtain the carbon emissions of various elements; and summing the carbon emissions of all single-type elements associated with the target product to generate the theoretical carbon emissions.
[0049] In one specific embodiment of this application, the material hierarchy refers to the multi-level composition structure of the target commodity in the supply chain, from raw materials to finished products. This can be implemented using the parent-child node relationship in a bill of materials database to ensure the completeness and hierarchical accuracy of the extracted element behavior data. Element behavior data refers to quantitative indicators reflecting the production, transportation, and other stages of materials at each level. This can be achieved by parsing the material weight field in purchase orders and the distance field in transportation documents, transforming abstract material relationships into calculable carbon emission baseline data. The carbon emission coefficient library is a database storing the unit carbon emission values corresponding to different materials. This can be constructed by combining industry standard coefficients with historical data training models, used to dynamically match element identification information to adapt to supply chain changes. The carbon emission amount of a single element refers to the carbon emission value generated by a single material in a specific stage. This can be calculated by multiplying the quantitative value by the target carbon emission coefficient, enabling independent accounting of the carbon emission contribution of each stage.
[0050] Specifically, the material hierarchy is expanded level by level through database queries, for example, from the finished product layer down to the component layer and the raw material layer. After the element behavior data corresponding to each level is extracted, the element identification information is matched in real time with the carbon emission coefficient database. If a standard coefficient exists, it is directly used; if it is missing, a similarity matching algorithm is triggered to obtain a substitute coefficient. The quantified value of each element is multiplied by its matched carbon emission coefficient to generate the carbon emission data for that level. The calculation results of all levels are accumulated along the supply chain path to form the theoretical total carbon emissions covering the entire life cycle.
[0051] Understandably, through the above technical solution, this application resolves the issue of carbon emission calculation bias caused by missing supplier data, achieving adaptive matching of dynamic material hierarchy relationships. By decomposing the supply chain structure step by step and dynamically calling carbon emission coefficients, it ensures that theoretical calculations cover all stages of the product's entire lifecycle, improving the accuracy of calculation results and adaptability to supply chain changes. Simultaneously, independently calculating carbon emissions at each stage provides data support for subsequent optimization of high-emission stages.
[0052] In one embodiment of this application, obtaining the target carbon emission coefficient corresponding to each element identifier includes: if the current element identifier has a matching unit carbon emission coefficient in the carbon emission coefficient database, then the matching unit emission coefficient is determined as the target carbon emission coefficient; if the current element identifier does not have a matching unit carbon emission coefficient in the carbon emission coefficient database, then the substitution coefficient with the highest similarity is matched according to the feature of the element description text, and the substitution coefficient is determined as the target carbon emission coefficient.
[0053] In one specific embodiment of this application, the element identifier refers to a code or symbol used to uniquely identify value chain elements. Specifically, it can be implemented using material numbers, process codes, or supplier IDs, and is used to quickly retrieve the corresponding carbon emission coefficient in structured data. The unit carbon emission coefficient refers to the carbon emission parameter corresponding to a unit quantified value, and can be implemented using kilograms of CO2 equivalent per kilogram of material or ton-kilometers of transportation emission coefficients, and is used to convert operational activity data into carbon emissions. The substitution coefficient refers to an approximate carbon emission coefficient obtained through semantic similarity matching. Specifically, it can be implemented by using a natural language processing model to extract text feature vectors and calculate cosine similarity, and is used to maintain the continuity of the calculation process when there is no matching element identifier.
[0054] Specifically, when an element identifier cannot be matched with a corresponding parameter in the carbon emission coefficient database, the system automatically extracts the descriptive text features of that element, such as material name, production process description, or supplier classification information. A pre-trained text embedding model converts the descriptive text into a high-dimensional vector, and the system retrieves the existing coefficient record in the coefficient database that is closest to the current vector space. During similarity calculation, priority is given to matching coefficient entries with the same industry classification or physical attributes to ensure the consistency of the physical meaning of the substitution coefficients. Therefore, even in scenarios where the supplier has not provided carbon emission data or the newly added material has not been entered into the coefficient database, interpretable theoretical carbon emission calculation results can still be dynamically generated.
[0055] Understandably, through the above technical solution, this application solves the problem of calculation interruption caused by carbon emission coefficient matching failure, avoiding the time delay and subjective error of manually supplementing coefficients. In scenarios where supplier data formats are chaotic or historical data is lacking for new materials, it can automatically select alternative coefficients with similar physical properties, ensuring the integrity of the theoretical carbon emission calculation process and the traceability of the results.
[0056] Step S240: Generate a visualization report on the carbon emission distribution of the target product based on the actual or theoretical carbon emissions.
[0057] In one embodiment of this application, generating a visualization report on the carbon emission distribution of a target product includes: extracting the calculation results of the actual and theoretical carbon emissions associated with the target product; aggregating carbon emission data based on preset dimensions to generate a multi-level visualization chart, the dimensions of which include value chain element types, emission stages, and geographical regions; the multi-level structure includes: a first-level view showing the distribution of the target product's total carbon emissions throughout its entire product lifecycle; a second-level view showing the carbon emission proportion of each emission stage; and a third-level view showing the ranking of the carbon emission contributions of different value chain elements within each emission stage; the emission stages include raw material acquisition, production and manufacturing, transportation and warehousing, product use, and end-of-life disposal; and outputting an interactive report containing visualization charts, the interactive report supporting dynamic comparative analysis based on geographical regions or time periods.
[0058] In one specific embodiment of this application, the multi-level structured visualization chart refers to a progressive analysis interface consisting of three view levels. This can be achieved by using a data visualization engine to construct the linkage relationships and drill-down paths between views, realizing the analysis of carbon emission distribution from macro to micro levels through a hierarchical penetration mechanism. The preset dimension refers to a predefined direction for data aggregation and analysis, which can be achieved by using multi-dimensional modeling techniques in a data warehouse to classify and store carbon emission data, supporting multi-factor correlation analysis through dimension combinations. The interactive report refers to a visualization interface with dynamic response capabilities, which can be implemented by developing chart interaction components using a front-end framework, triggering data queries and view updates through a parameter passing mechanism.
[0059] Specifically, after data calculations are completed, the actual and theoretical carbon emission calculation results are extracted to the visualization engine. The data is aggregated according to three dimensions: value chain element type, emission stage, and geographic region, forming a multidimensional dataset. The first-level view displays the total carbon emission proportion of each stage of the entire life cycle in a pie chart format. Clicking on a specific stage block triggers a second-level view displaying the emission proportions of different element types within that stage. The third-level view displays the carbon emission contribution of specific elements in sorted order using bar charts; for example, in the transportation and warehousing stage, it displays the carbon emission values for each transportation route. The interactive report includes a built-in timeline control and map component. When users select different quarters or check regional ranges, the system automatically refreshes the view data and generates comparative analysis results.
[0060] Understandably, through the aforementioned technical solutions, this application achieves multi-dimensional dynamic analysis of the carbon emission distribution of target commodities, enabling enterprises to quickly identify high-emission stages and specific elements. For example, when analyzing an electronic product, the third-level view can show that the carbon emission proportion of the rare metal smelting stage in its raw material acquisition exceeds a preset value, providing data support for enterprises to optimize their supply chains. The interactive comparison function can compare the differences in transportation carbon emissions from factories in different regions, assisting in the formulation of regionalized emission reduction strategies.
[0061] In one embodiment of this application, after generating a visualization report on the carbon emission distribution of the target product, the method further includes: locating target value chain elements whose carbon emission intensity exceeds a preset third threshold based on the carbon emission contribution ranking results identified in the third-level view of the visualization report; for the located target value chain elements, associating them with the corresponding original data source system and performing data verification; if the verification finds data anomalies, generating a data calibration task and pushing it to the responsible party for manual processing; if the data verification passes, starting the emission reduction strategy simulation engine, outputting the optimization scheme and expected carbon reduction amount for the high-intensity value chain elements; updating the optimization scheme and expected carbon reduction amount to the interactive report, and triggering an external blockchain node to perform encrypted storage. The third threshold varies depending on the product or production process, and higher values are usually determined based on relevant industry standards or other specifications. This application does not limit its specific value or method.
[0062] In one specific embodiment of this application, the third-level view refers to a view that displays the carbon emission contribution ranking of different value chain elements within each emission stage through drill-down. This can be implemented using the drill-down function in a data visualization tool to focus on key issue nodes in specific emission stages. Data verification refers to the consistency check of the original data associated with the positioning elements. This can be achieved by calling the API interface of the data source system to obtain the original records, thus eliminating misjudgments caused by data errors. The emission reduction strategy simulation engine refers to an algorithm module that generates optimization schemes based on historical data and industry benchmarks. This can be achieved by using machine learning models to predict the carbon reduction effects of different emission reduction measures, used to automatically output feasible solutions. Blockchain encrypted storage refers to writing the optimization process data into a distributed ledger. This can be achieved by using a consortium blockchain's smart contract to execute hash value on-chain operations, ensuring the data is tamper-proof.
[0063] Specifically, after generating the visualization report, the third-level view quickly identifies elements exceeding carbon emission intensity limits by ranking contributions, such as anomalies in a supplier's transportation emissions. By linking raw data from the procurement and logistics systems, it verifies whether parameters such as transportation distance and vehicle type match the initial calculations. If null values are found in the transportation distance field, a calibration task is generated to notify the procurement department to supplement the data; if the data is correct, the emission reduction model is invoked to simulate the carbon reduction after replacing trucks with electric ones or optimizing routes. Finally, the optimization plan is embedded in the report, and the plan parameters and verification records are encrypted and stored on the blockchain, forming a complete and auditable chain of evidence.
[0064] It is understandable that, through the above technical solutions, this application solves the problems in the prior art of being unable to dynamically locate carbon emission exceeding factors, lacking automated data verification mechanisms, and having poor traceability of optimization schemes. It achieves accurate identification of high emission factors, rapid calibration of abnormal data, and reliable evidence storage of emission reduction strategies, thereby improving the accuracy and auditability of corporate carbon management decisions.
[0065] Finally, it should be emphasized that, in conjunction with the foregoing embodiments, the enterprise value chain carbon emission data processing method proposed in this application solves the difficulties in cross-platform integration caused by the dispersion of enterprise carbon emission data, and realizes the automated association of external parameters, internal data, and manually supplemented information. It improves the calculation accuracy in scenarios where supplier data is missing, and adapts to changes in product structure by dynamically analyzing material hierarchy relationships. The generated interactive report supports filtering transportation route carbon emission data by geographical region, providing a visual analysis basis for enterprises to locate high-emission links.

Figure 1 The system is shown in the implementation environment. This system can also be applied to other exemplary implementation environments and specifically configured in other devices. This embodiment does not limit the implementation environment to which the system is applicable.
[0067] like Figure 3 As shown, the exemplary enterprise value chain carbon emission data processing system includes: a data acquisition module 310, a data association engine 320, a carbon emission calculation module 330, and a visualization report engine 340.
[0068] The data acquisition module 310 is used to collect raw data for calculating the carbon emissions of the target product, including carbon emission parameters from external data platforms, operational data from internal business systems, and supplementary data from human-machine interfaces; the data association engine 320 is used to establish relationships between fields from different sources in the raw data and generate a cross-system data set with a unified identifier; the carbon emission calculation module 330 is used to identify supplier data in the data set, and if it contains carbon emission values, it is used as the actual carbon emission amount; if the supplier data does not contain carbon emission values, the theoretical carbon emission amount is calculated based on the carbon footprint topology of the target product; and the visualization report engine 340 is used to generate a visualization report on the carbon emission distribution of the target product based on the actual or theoretical carbon emission amount.
[0069] In one specific embodiment of this application, the data acquisition module refers to a component that integrates heterogeneous data from multiple sources. Specifically, it can be implemented by using API interfaces to connect to external platforms, ETL tools to extract data from internal systems, and manual data entry interfaces to receive supplementary data. This module solves the problem of data silos across multiple systems through a unified data entry point. The data association engine refers to a processor that implements cross-system field mapping. Specifically, it can be implemented by using semantic parsing algorithms to standardize field names, establishing relational database indexes based on material numbers, and anomaly detection rule bases to identify data errors. This engine eliminates semantic differences between fields through unified identifiers. The carbon emission calculation module refers to a computational unit that dynamically processes supplier data. Specifically, it can be implemented using a supplier data format converter, a carbon footprint topology parser, and a hierarchical element carbon emission accumulation algorithm. This module improves data utilization by prioritizing a combination of actual values and dynamic theoretical calculations. The visualization report engine refers to a tool that generates interactive analytical charts. Specifically, it can be implemented using multi-dimensional data aggregation models, hierarchical drill-down chart components, and dynamic comparative analysis interfaces. This engine supports emission hotspot location through multi-dimensional view linkage.
[0070] Specifically, the data acquisition module obtains the carbon emission coefficient per unit of materials from an external platform, extracts material weight information from purchase orders from the internal system, and receives supplementary data from suppliers through a human-machine interface. The data association engine performs standardization processing on purchase order numbers and shipping document numbers, establishes a correlation with product design data, detects abnormal weight values, and generates verification markers. When supplier data is missing, the carbon emission calculation module analyzes the material hierarchy of the target product, matches dynamic parameters in the carbon emission coefficient library level by level, and accumulates the carbon emissions of each level of elements to generate a theoretical value. The visualization reporting engine aggregates actual and theoretical values according to raw material acquisition and manufacturing stages, generating an interactive heatmap that can be drilled down to the transportation path dimension.
