IDA blend vs Kuwait: Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes
Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- IDA blend
- Kuwait
How they compare
Kuwait currently reports 0.0232 Mt CO2e against 0.0163 Mt CO2e in IDA blend, a difference of 0.0069 Mt CO2e.
That makes Kuwait's figure about 1.4 times IDA blend's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was IDA blend ahead.
IDA blend ranks 41st and Kuwait ranks 39th of 46 groups.
Across the 6 decades both report, IDA blend averaged higher in 4 and Kuwait in 2.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from industrial processes including IPCC 2006 codes 2.A.1 Cement production, 2.A.2 Lime production, 2.A.3 Glass Production, 2.A.4 Other Process Uses of Carbonates, 2.B Chemical Industry, 2.C Metal Industry, 2.D Non-Energy Products from Fuels and Solvent Use, 2.E Electronics Industry, 2.F Product Uses as Substitutes for Ozone Depleting Substances, 2.G Other Product Manufacture and Use and 5.A Indirect N2O emissions from the atmospheric deposition of nitrogen in NOx and NH3. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
