Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Small Industries and its
Impact on Global Warming
Haradhan Kumar Mohajan
Abstract
This paper discusses mathematical calculations of the
greenhouse gas emissions from small industries, which
cause global warming in the atmosphere. Global warming
is causing an increase in ocean levels, it is estimated
that most of the coastal areas of the world will be
submerged by 2050, resulting in extinction of some
insects and animals. Simple calculations are presented
to estimate three greenhouse gases, carbon dioxide,
methane, and nitrous oxide emissions from small
industry. The emissions from fossil fuels in a small
mill are given with mathematical calculations. Emissions
from combined heat and power plants are allocated in
this paper by using ‘The World Resources Institute and
World Business Council for Sustainable Development
Efficiency’ method.
