TOPIC 13: CO2 EMISSIONS FROM FOSSIL FUEL COMBUSTION
 


Chemicals (1.A.2.c)

Chemical manufacturing includes the transformation of organic and inorganic raw materials by a chemical process and the formulation of products. For example, the manufacture of industrial gases, dyes, petrochemicals, bleaches, etc.

  • How has fuel consumption activity data been collected from these industries?
  • Has the Party provided a detailed explanation of the interaction with the Industrial Processes Sector and Energy Sector?
  • How has the Party addressed feedstock and non-energy uses of fossil fuels?
  • How have emissions from chemical manufacturing and petroleum refining been separated?
  • How has fuel consumption activity data been collected from the chemical industry?
  • What is the basis of carbon content values and carbon oxidation factors for non-standard fuels (e.g., process by-products that are burned for process heat)?

Pulp, Paper and Print and Food (1.A.2.d), Beverages and Tobacco (1.A.2.e)

This category is unlikely to be a key category for most Parties.

  • How has fuel consumption activity data been collected from these industries?
  • How has biomass and fossil fuel consumption been separated?
  • Are emission estimates of CO2 only based on fossil fuel consumption? (Emission estimates of non-CO2 gases, however, should be based on both biomass and fossil fuel consumption?)
