Sudan vs United Kingdom: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes over time
- Sudan
- United Kingdom
How they compare
United Kingdom currently reports 2.52 Mt CO2e against 2.2 Mt CO2e in Sudan, a difference of 0.32 Mt CO2e.
That makes United Kingdom's figure about 1.1 times Sudan's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was United Kingdom ahead.
Sudan ranks 29th and United Kingdom ranks 26th of 203 countries.
United Kingdom has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Sudan | United Kingdom | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 0.2214 Mt CO2e | 10.18 Mt CO2e | 9.96 Mt CO2e | United Kingdom |
| 1980s | 1.76 Mt CO2e | 11.9 Mt CO2e | 10.14 Mt CO2e | United Kingdom |
| 1990s | 2.26 Mt CO2e | 6.45 Mt CO2e | 4.19 Mt CO2e | United Kingdom |
| 2000s | 2.57 Mt CO2e | 4.63 Mt CO2e | 2.07 Mt CO2e | United Kingdom |
| 2010s | 2.46 Mt CO2e | 3.02 Mt CO2e | 0.5601 Mt CO2e | United Kingdom |
| 2020s | 2.13 Mt CO2e | 2.64 Mt CO2e | 0.5038 Mt CO2e | United Kingdom |
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).
