Industrial Processes and Product Use

This informative guide delves into the current sources of GHGs from industrial processes and product use, covering criteria for inclusion of new sources and gases. It explores emissions from cement, lime, acid, iron, steel, aluminium production, ozone depleting substitutes, and sulphur hexafluoride usage. Criteria for adding new sources include methodological basis, data availability, and sector significance.

  1. Industrial Processes and Product Use William K. Agyemang-Bonsu Environmental Protection Agency Ghana

  2. Current Sources of GHGs • Current sources • Cement and Lime Production (CO2) • Nitric and Adipic Acid Production (N2O) • Iron and Steel Production (CO2) • Primary Aluminium Production (CO2, CF4 and C2F6) • Substitutes for ozone depleting substances (HFCs & PFCs) • Use of sulphur hexafluoride (SF6)

  3. Criteria for Inclusion of New Sources • New Sources will be included if the following criteria are met: • Basis for methodological development including the ability to develop default emission factors exists • It is feasible to obtain the necessary data to implement the method • The source is significant within the sector.

  4. Gases Current coverage: CO2, CH4, N2O, HFCs, PFCs and SF6 (direct GHGs) NOx, CO and NMVOC and SO2 (indirect GHG; precursors) New gases identified in the IPCC TAR will be included if they meet following criteria: • GWP Available • Anthropogenic sources identified • Basis for methodological development • Relative importance total emissions
