The IRANI was awarded the Febramec prize in the Atmospheric Emissions category with its case of Environmental Management of Greenhouse Gases Emission (GHG).
This award, promoted by the Brazilian Mechanical and Industrial Automation Trade Fair (Febramec) in partnership with SENAI, is intended to make the public aware of the actions taken by industrial companies to improve their production processes, and take into account the need for environmental preservation and conservation.
IRANI won the award with the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects of the Co-generation Plant, the modernization of the Effluent Treatment Plant (WWTP) and the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions Inventory.
The management of the atmospheric emissions at IRANI is carried out through the of greenhouse gases inventory which is produced each year. The inventory is the main source of information on air emissions because it aims to identify and quantify all relevant emissions and removals of greenhouse gases.
The Febramec Environmental Award was created to highlight initiatives that contribute to cleaner production and sustainable development in Brazil. The judging committee is coordinated by the National Center for Clean Technologies (CNTL-SENAI/UNIDO/UNEP) and consists of 23 industrial and environmental organizations, including the Inter-American Association of Sanitary and Environmental Engineering (AIDIS) and Bureau Veritas Certification.
