Facility Information

Provide basic information about your facility

Facility Name *

Facility Type *

Reporting Year *

Treatment Capacity (m³/day) *

Facility Location (Optional)

Energy Consumption Data

Enter annual energy consumption (Scope 1 & 2 emissions)

Electricity (Scope 2)

Grid Electricity (kWh/year) *

Fuels (Scope 1)

Diesel Fuel (Liters/year)

Natural Gas (Nm³/year)

LPG (kg/year)

Process & Additional Data

Enter chemical usage, sludge, and transportation data (Scope 3 emissions)

Drinking Water Treatment Data

Water Source *

Primary Treatment Process *

Alum/Aluminum Sulfate (kg/year)

Activated Carbon (kg/year)

Sodium Hypochlorite (kg/year)

Filter Backwash Water (m³/year)

Water Treatment Tip: Typical electricity intensity for drinking water: 0.3-0.6 kWh/m³. Chemical consumption and sludge disposal are major Scope 3 emission sources.

Desalination Plant Data

Desalination Technology *

Feed Water TDS (mg/L) *

Recovery Rate (%) *

Brine Discharge Volume (m³/year)

Membranes Replaced (units/year)

Antiscalant Used (kg/year)

Desalination Tip: Energy intensity varies by technology. RO: 3-6 kWh/m³, MSF: 13-20 kWh/m³, MED: 6-12 kWh/m³. Accurate electricity data is critical for desalination plants.

Wastewater Treatment Data (Critical for N₂O Emissions)

Influent Total Nitrogen - TN (mg/L) *

Effluent Total Nitrogen - TN (mg/L) *

Annual Wastewater Volume (m³/year) *

Treatment Type *

Influent BOD (mg/L) - Optional for CH₄

Influent COD (mg/L) - Optional for CH₄

Important: Total Nitrogen (TN) data is critical for accurate N₂O emission calculation using IPCC 2019 methodology. N₂O has a GWP of 298 and is often the second-largest emission source in wastewater treatment.

CH₄ Emissions (Optional): If you have BOD or COD data, the calculator will also estimate CH₄ (methane) emissions. CH₄ has a GWP of 25 and can be significant in anaerobic treatment systems.

Industrial Wastewater Specific Data

Industry Type *

Waste Strength

Acids Used (HCl/H₂SO₄) (kg/year)

Alkali Used (NaOH/Ca(OH)₂) (kg/year)

Heavy Metal Sludge (tons/year)

Special Treatment Chemicals (kg/year)

Industrial Wastewater: High-strength industrial wastewater can produce significantly more N₂O and CH₄. Proper pretreatment and specialized treatment are critical for emission reduction.

Chemicals

Chlorine (kg/year)

Coagulants (kg/year)

Polymers (kg/year)

Lime (kg/year)

Sludge Management

Sludge Production (tons/year)

Disposal Method

Transportation

Vehicle Fuel (Liters/year)

Vehicle Type

Refrigerants & Gases (High GWP - Critical!)

Refrigerant Type

Annual Refill/Leakage Amount (kg/year)

High Impact: Refrigerants have extremely high Global Warming Potential (GWP). For example, 1 kg of R-410a = 2,088 kg CO₂e! Even small leakages create significant emissions.
