Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory at an Agrochemical Production Facility

Climate change is a pressing global issue primarily driven by increased concentrations of GHGs (Greenhouse Gases) in the atmosphere.GHGs such as CO (Carbon Dioxide), CH (Methane), and NO (Nitrous Oxide) trap solar radiation, contributing to global warming.This study presents a GHG emissions inventory for an agrochemical production plant based on ISO (International Organization for Standardization) 14064-1:2018.Emissions from both direct (fuel combustion) and indirect (electricity consumption) sources were quantified.Results indicate that indirect emissions from electricity use account for 91% of total GHGs, while direct emissions from fossil fuel combustion contribute 9%.Electricity consumption emerged as the primary contributor to the plant's carbon footprint.
