       Manufactured at BASF’s integrated site in Ludwigshafen, Germany, the chemical giant said it uses waste-derived renewable feedstock as part of its Biomass Balance Model (BMB), ensuring both products have a zero carbon footprint.
       In the BMB method, suitable for the production of “PA ZeroPCF”, “NPG ZeroPCF” and other products, the company incorporates bionaphtha and biomethane from the waste or residue of the Verbun plant in the initial stages of chemical production.
        “For the production of NPG ZeroPCF, BASF additionally uses renewable energy through renewable energy certificates. However, BASF has achieved zero PCF from the cradle to the gate for PA ZeroPCF and NPG ZeroPCF through the use of renewable raw materials. Renewable energy use not achieved The precondition for PCF must be zero.”
        “NPG ZeroPCF” and “PA ZeroPCF” are “embedded” solutions, the manufacturer explained. They are identical in quality and performance to standard products, allowing customers to use them in production without adapting existing processes.
       BASF claims that the adoption of such products by end users will help them move towards a circular economy.
        The German business revealed how it was certified carbon neutral for two products by the global climate change consultancy Carbon Trust, a process it stressed was not based on buying carbon credits. This certification will be reviewed annually.
        The assessment is done from scratch and takes into account all greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that occur before a product leaves the gates of the BASF plant, from resource extraction to precursor production to the production of the final chemical product itself. googletag.cmd.push(function () { googletag.display(‘text-ad1′); });
        BASF wants to achieve zero CO2 emissions by 2050. It claims to be the first major chemical company to offer customers a customized carbon footprint for all products it sells.
       ”B ASF recently calculated the individual carbon footprint of a significant portion of its portfolio of chemical intermediates. This includes propionic acid and fossil-derived NPG. The results of the analysis show that the PCF of these two intermediates is significantly lower than the corresponding third-party manufacturer’s Global Average PCF of the product “So reducing our carbon footprint to zero with BASF’s approach to balancing biomass using renewable feedstock in an integrated production system was an obvious choice.”
        The chemical company is one of the world’s leading producers of propionic acid (PA), which is used in various fields. It can be used as an antifungal agent for food and feed preservation. Other applications for PA include the production of plant protection products, fragrances and fragrances, pharmaceuticals, solvents, and thermoplastics.
       Powder paints are an important area of ​​application for NPG, especially for the construction and automotive industries, as well as household appliances.
