♦ Category: Industrial Processes and Product Use

IPCC: 2H3 - Other - Hydrogen Production
Sector: Industrial : Petroleum Refining and Hydrogen Production : Transformation

♦ Activity: Fuel consumption - Petroleum feedstocks

♦ Greenhouse gas: Carbon dioxide ( CO2 )

► Year 2016 —

● Greenhouse gas emission estimate —

Amount: 0 tonne of CO2 Emitted (0 tonne CO2 Eq.)
Basis: Calculation
Calculation: [Fuel consumption] * [Heat content] * (1 - [Proportion of carbon stored]) * [Fuel CO2 emission]
