Description
The ‘Project Activity’ includes development, design, engineering, procurement, finance,
construction, operation, and maintenance of a system for thermal oxidation of HFC 23
(Chemical Formulae: CHF3) followed by treatment of combustion gases prior to safe disposal
of all emissions and discharges.
The plant uses Chloroform (CHCl3), Fluorspar (CaF2) and Sulphuric Acid as the main feedstock and produces HCFC 22 in a swing plant operation with by-product HFC 23, which is being vented to atmosphere (the swing plant makes R 11 & R 12 on campaign basis with R 22). GFL wishes to take up thermal oxidation of HFC 23, the by-product of HCFC 22, as a CDM project on voluntary basis. Under this project activity, GFL shall additionally install, operate and maintain a HFC23 collection and thermal oxidation system to decompose HFC23 into its products of combustion. The thermal oxidation system in combination with the existing HCFC plant will enable GFL to avoid HFC23 emissions (GHG emissions), which would in the absence of the project activity have been vented to the atmosphere. The installation of thermal oxidation facility would not only make GFL contribute to society by restricting release of GHG but would give economic and technical benefits to the country by providing direct and in-direct employment and transfer of thermal oxidation technology to the country and thus contributing to sustainable development.
