2022 Eco-profile study now updated with improved data
15/09/2022
Following its launch in February, the Euro Chlor Eco-profile has now been updated here. The consultant detected a mistake in one of the models used for the calculation of the greenhouse gas (GHG) effects (shown on page 4 of the report and below). The effect is substantial and positive for Euro Chlor:
| Carbon footprint in kg CO2/kg product | February 2022 report | Updated September 2022 report |
| Chlorine | 0.80 | 0.71 |
| Caustic (100% basis) | 0.75 | 0.66 |
| Hydrogen | 0.64 | 0.55 |
| Sodium hypochlorite | 0.74 | 0.64 |
Contact Ton Manders, Euro Chlor Technical & Safety Director, with any questions.
