The CO 2<br />
emissions for <strong>2009</strong> remained stable compared to<br />
2008. Increased use of natural gas in Zofingen replaced alternative<br />
fuels and extra light heating oil, resulting in lower<br />
overall CO 2<br />
emissions. The reduction in Zofingen was compensated<br />
by the increase in Pennsville (due to higher production<br />
utilization levels in the U.S.). The CO 2<br />
reduction sold to<br />
the “Climate Cents” (Klimarappen) Foundation; the amount<br />
sold increased from 390 tons in 2008 to 1,210 tons in <strong>2009</strong>.<br />

The VOC emissions (hydrocarbons) again decreased over<br />
the year, due mainly to the product portfolio in the U.S. The<br />
VOC emissions in Zofingen decreased somewhat less than<br />
in the previous year. The thermal exhaust cleaning system<br />
posted a consistently high availability.<br />
