Chad vs Congo: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Chad
- Congo
How they compare
Chad currently reports 0.3277 Mt CO2e against 0.3106 Mt CO2e in Congo, a difference of 0.0171 Mt CO2e.
That makes Chad's figure about 1.1 times Congo's.
The two have swapped places 8 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Chad ahead.
Chad ranks 92nd and Congo ranks 95th of 203 countries.
Chad has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Chad | Congo | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 0.0278 Mt CO2e | 0.0194 Mt CO2e | 0.0084 Mt CO2e | Chad |
| 1980s | 0.3202 Mt CO2e | 0.2462 Mt CO2e | 0.0739 Mt CO2e | Chad |
| 1990s | 0.4509 Mt CO2e | 0.2532 Mt CO2e | 0.1977 Mt CO2e | Chad |
| 2000s | 0.4934 Mt CO2e | 0.2201 Mt CO2e | 0.2732 Mt CO2e | Chad |
| 2010s | 0.444 Mt CO2e | 0.2325 Mt CO2e | 0.2116 Mt CO2e | Chad |
| 2020s | 0.377 Mt CO2e | 0.24 Mt CO2e | 0.1371 Mt CO2e | Chad |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), 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).
