Carbon4PUR replication map
Information on this map
This map shows all emissions of CO and CO2 in Europe in selected industrial categories that contain processes with Carbon4PUR compatible emissions according to
the E-PRTR. For more detail on the E-PRTR
data and how it was obtained, read the data section.
The tabs on the left allow to filter those emissions to obtain possible replication sites for a Carbon4PUR plant. The first tab contains filters based on the type of emissions, the second tab filters based on possible plants.

Legend
CO/CO2 emitters
CO emissions are displayed with an orange border and all CO2 emissions with a yellow border. The fill color depends on the type of plant (see colors in the second tab on the left or click on any circle on the map). The size indicates the amount of CO or CO2 available.CO/CO2 users (chemical plants)
Chemical plants are blue and polyol plants green. Those are potential sites for the Carbon4PUR technology. CO and CO2 have to be available nearby, and the size of the circle corresponds to the radius (defined by the user) in which transporting those gases might be economical.Usage
You can add filters to narrow down the emissions:- to those compatible with the Carbon4PUR process or by emission type and source ( tab on the left),
- and to those near an existing chemical parc, polyol plant or steel mill ( tab). This tab also allows for analysis of available CO/CO2, ethylene oxide and propylene oxide as well as some analytics.
- The tab contains information about data, licences and privacy and
- in the settings tab contains advanced options like map layout and a possibility to load and save your own consumers.

Data
Emissions
All emissions have been obtained from E-PRTR. The data was queried via the SPARQL-Endpoint http://semantic.eea.europa.eu/sparql. The exact query can be found in this text file. Some errors have been corrected manually, e.g. the coordinates of Fjernvarme Fyn power plant was changed from somewhere in Cameroon to the correct location in Denmark.Chemical parks and polyol plants
All chemical plants and polyol plants have been gathered manually via desk research, publications and interviews. There is no promise that this data is complete or correct. If you have suggestions, please contact us.The steel mills come from Carbon4PUR internal resources.
Resource availability
Ethylene oxide and propylene oxide availability was also gathered via desk research. Data is sparse and sometimes contradictory, so please only use this as a first indicator. It is (wrongly) considered that all polyol plants have ethylene oxide and propylene oxide available.Ethylene and propylene pipelines are compiled from chemicalparks.eu, argkg.com, eps-pipeline.de, sabic.com, infraserv.com and gtai.de

A more detailed documentation can be found in our public deliverable D7.1.NACE categories and plant types
Carbon4PUR is investigating two cleaning technologies: chemical looping and catalytic cleaning. They differ in their compatibility with input gases. We therefore defined a list of compatible processes for each cleaning step.catalytic cleaning is compatible with steel gases and the Acheson process.
chemical looping is compatible with steel gases, the Acheson process, biogas before and after combustion, [pyrolysis gas, refineries and steam crackers] all after partial combustion. Cement/lime kiln and ammonia could be used if the off gases were separated and then mixed with CO, H2 or CH4 containing streams .
To get an idea of where those emissions are available, the NACE category for each of those processes have been obtained:
| Steel: | 24.10 Manufacture of basic iron and steel and of ferro-alloys |
| Acheson: | 20.13 Manufacture of other inorganic basic chemicals |
| Biogas: | 35.11 Production of electricity |
| Pyrolysis: | 06.20 Extraction of natural gas |
| Refineries and steam crackers: | 19.20 Manufacture of refined petroleum products |
| Cement: | 23.51 Manufacture of cement |
| Lime and Plaster: | 23.52 Manufacture of lime and plaster |
| Ammonia: | 20.15 Manufacture of fertilisers and nitrogen compounds |
