Analysis
Turkey recorded 54.44 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from industrial processes in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
The figure is up 1.8% on the previous year and up 24.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from industrial processes in Turkey peaked at 54.44 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 5.39 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
Turkey ranks 9th of 203 countries on this measure, in the top 10%.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), 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).
