The use of hazardous materials and production of emissions and effluents are a necessary part of state of the art ammonia production processes, however, both CNC and N2000 are committed to safeguarding the environment by not only satisfying legal requirements but acting responsibly where the law does not exist.
From the initial design, which meets the World Bank guidelines, through to compliance with local and international codes and standards, the plants have been subject to Hazard and Operability Reviews (HAZOPs), Pre-Start Up Safety Assessments (PSSAs) and since start-up, employ stringent Management of Change (MOC) procedures. Material Safety Data Sheets are available for all products we produce and feedstock and chemicals we use. All waste is treated to ensure it safely meets discharge standards, or is disposed of through approved vendors.
Mitigation measures are in place to limit the environmental impact of both CNC and N2000. This is done via monitoring of strict Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and statutory limits for gaseous emissions and liquid effluents and continuing investigations into efficiency improvements around the use of natural resources.
