Participation is free of charge. During the webinar, the NACAG Secretariat will elaborate on the initiative´s goals and support mechanisms of N2O abatement technology for nitric acid producers.
The Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer was adopted in 1987 and was ratified by all 198 UN Member States. While covering nearly 100 man-made chemicals known as ozone-depleting substances, the Protocol does not refer to N2O emissions. At the same time, nitrous oxide remains one of the most important ozone-depleting substances. Increasing international action on these emissions is necessary to achieve the climate goals defined in the Paris Agreement and protect the ozone layer.
