Analysis
The most recent figure for methane (ch4) emissions from industrial processes in Belarus is 0.006 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024.
The figure is down 16.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from industrial processes in Belarus peaked at 0.0073 Mt CO2e in 2012 and was at its lowest, 0.0008 Mt CO2e, in 1993.
Belarus ranks 56th of 94 countries on this measure, in the middle of the range.
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 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).
