Minister Demir requested that he go to extra attention in the dossier to the publishers of the stikstofuitstoot of the Kraker. Stoten Krakers normaal spoken zo veel stikstof uit?
Van Geem: “The most important building in the chemical industry is ethylene, because there is polyethylene and the plastic that can be made. A crack breaks down in the oven tot the name of the ethylene, methaan and water, om the nadia also still exist from the elkaar te sheaths. Om die scheiding te doen, heb ever hele high temperatures needed. The substance of the substance is due to the use of gas in the oven. Bij elke verbranding that ever does, loop je risico op NOx vorming. Think about a car. Hoeveel er juist vrijkkomt, depends strongly on van het design van de oven en de soort branders.”
Ineos evaluates that the Kraker tot the most beautiful and most innovative in Europe. Maar also 3M shows that the installation is gezondheidsgevaar contained. Can we love the tops of chemical bedrijven?
“The way the twee never happened with the error, there were other problems. The two most important problems of the Kraker zijn the CO2 and the NOx emissions. The Ineos-kraker wil op termijn completely op waterstof draaien. We manage al 90 percent of the CO2 emissions. Door een good design van de oven en brander, what here volgens de informatie the ik heb wel is geurd, kun je ook the NOx-emissies aanzienlijk reduceren. As the criterium is for the most beautiful, it is possibly correct. However, each of the possible criteria must be met. Also het energie- en waterverbruik moet je bijvoorbeeld meerekenen. There is no complete life cycle analysis that can be guaranteed.
Maar u vindt het dus wel een goode beslissing dat de Kraker er komt?
“Ergens would like to make a new one. Of course, the production is in Europe, so much control is required that the best technology must be used in combination with the best raw materials from the most ethylene op te delivery. Of course there is: I will never have it in my backyard. Maar dan zal het born in China of Saudi Arabia. The capacity of the polyethylene is required. As long as the best technology is used, and what is said about it from the published information is that, it will be right now.”
Is it then an option for less plastic producers?
“The most projects from people in het veld gaan uit van een verdrie- tot vertienvoudiging van het wereldwijd plastic use in tegen 2050. That is coupled to de welvaart, to an het toenemend aantal mensen dat plastic use. The most positive scenario is that of 2050 in the last few months of the sea in Europe. The chemical and mechanical recycling must be drastically increased and the export may be 1 percent. Op dit moment presses the 75 percent in België. As long as we remain in the status quo, other actions such as in Frankrijk still need to stop and have been done before.
“Ze gaan er in dat model also van uit dat maar 4 percent van het plastic can be used for alternative basic materials. The problem is that the op dit moment is a bit longer. As per the obligation, de Eindgebruiker must be considered. Het is a distorted perception that all plastic is disposable. PVC frame and 20 percent of the car components have been made of plastic.”
