Greenhouse Gases

Greenhouse Gases - according to the IPCC six main types of greenhouse gases are distinguished: carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitric protoxide (N2O) and three gases-harbingers: carbon oxide (CO), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), nonmethane volitile organic compounds (NMVOC). The Kyoto protocol included in the obligations of the Parties quantitative restriction and reduction of the emissions on six gases: carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitric protoxide (N2O), and hydrofluorocarbon, perfluorocarbons and sulphur hexafluoridum (SF6).

 
Carbon dioxide (CO2) - of high pressure and low temperature is obtained from ammonia production waste gases, from alcohols, as well as on the base of special burning of the fuel etc. Carbon dioxide is being produced as liquid subambient, liquid high pressured and gaseous. Purpose. Carbon dioxide is applied for creation of the protective environment at welding of metals, for the food purposes in fizzi drinks and dry ice manufacture, for cooling, freezing and storage of foodstuffs at direct or indirect contact with them; for drying of foundry forms; for fire-fighting and other purposes in all industries. Liquid carbon dioxide is applied mainly for needs of welding manufactures.


Methane (CH4) - far "stronger" than carbon dioxide greenhouse gas. Raw material for production of many valuable chemical products - formaldehyde, acetylene, carbon bisulfide, chloroform, a hydrocianic acid, soot. It is applied as fuel as well.


Nitrous protoxide (N2O) - «laughing gas». Main use: anaesthetization in medicine.


Hydrofluorocarbons - HFCs  -  hydrocarbonic derivatives consisting of one or  number of halogens which partially replace hydrogen.


Perfluorocarbons – PFCs  - 

the only one known source of PEC's emission is aluminium melting. Emissions occur in an electric arch or at so-called "anode effects".

Sulphur hexafluoridum (SF6) - in 22 200 times more effective greenhouse gas, than CO2, counting per kg. It is released from anthropogenous sources, survive extremely long in the atmosphere and acts as an active absorber of infra-red radiation. Therefore
in the long term this compound will influence on climate.
