In the latest episode of Stamitalk, Stamicarbon Process Engineer Carmen Perez sheds light on one of the most potent industrial greenhouse gases, nitrous oxide (N₂O) from nitric acid production, with a warming effect 300 times greater than carbon dioxide. She explains how these emissions form, why traditional abatement methods fall short, and why tertiary abatement technology has become the gold standard.Discover how Stamicarbon's solution can cut N₂O emissions by up to 99%, work with any plant design or age, and unlock significant economic gains through carbon credits. With carbon prices expected to rise, the business case is only getting stronger.This episode offers a compelling look at how nitric acid producers can align environmental responsibility with financial opportunity.Send us Fan Mail
