Corporate responsibility report
The Petrochemical Cracking unit – Olefins II – has a permit
valid until 31 December 2017.
Emission of major pollutants by the Płock
Production Plant in 2000-2010
GHG emission is generated from units which handle
processes covered by the CO2 emission allowance trading
scheme:
• fuel combustion in fuel combustion units (CHP);
• combustion in the elements of the Refinery units,
in particular in:
– furnaces,
– flares,
• refinery processes:
– hydrogen production,
– catalyst regeneration,
– decoking of furnace chambers (pipes),
• F combustion more information, the production visit of propylene and ethylene
in petrochemical cracking process (Olefins II).
