      HOUSTON, 1 de diciembre de 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Ascend Performance Materials ha comenzado a operar una nueva unidad de reducción térmica (TRU) que eliminará más del 98 % de las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero vinculadas a la producción de ácido adípico en Pensacola, Florida. Este nuevo equipo mejora las mejoras realizadas por Ascend en 2021 al agregar un nuevo dispositivo de control y eleva sus inversiones totales en reducción de GEI en el sitio de nailon integrado más grande del mundo a más de 50 millones de dólares.

      El año pasado, Ascend aumentó su objetivo de reducir sus emisiones de alcance 1 al 90 % como parte de su Visión 2030.

      "Hemos trabajado para garantizar que las mejoras de sostenibilidad que realizamos sean significativas y duraderas", dijo Chris Johnson, director sénior de sostenibilidad de Ascend. "Utilizando financiación de carbono, este proyecto adicional es un componente significativo de nuestras reducciones voluntarias de alcance 1 definidas como parte de nuestros objetivos de sostenibilidad".

      El proyecto TRU utiliza un entorno reductor de alta temperatura tecnológicamente avanzado que destruye permanentemente el N2O, un potente gas de efecto invernadero. El proyecto cuenta con un monitoreo sólido, que incluye medidores de flujo calibrados y un sistema de monitoreo continuo de emisiones (CEMS), y es auditado por terceros para garantizar que las reducciones de emisiones cumplan con los protocolos reconocidos internacionalmente.

      "Estamos extremadamente orgullosos de alcanzar este hito y reconocemos que nuestro trabajo de sustentabilidad no termina aquí. Continuaremos enfocándonos no solo en reducir nuestras propias emisiones, sino también en alentar a nuestros proveedores a reducir las suyas", dijo Phil McDivitt, director general y consejero delegado de Ascend. "Más allá de las emisiones, continuamos abordando el uso de residuos y agua, mejorando nuestro desempeño en seguridad, creando carreras que crecen y apoyando a nuestras comunidades a través de nuestra Fundación Ascend Cares".

      Además de las inversiones en Pensacola, Ascend redujo sus emisiones de alcance 1 y 2 instalando unidades de cogeneración en su planta de Decatur, Alabama, cambiando a un 30 % de energía renovable en su planta de Chocolate Bayou, Texas, y haciendo que sus operaciones globales de capitalización sean carbono neutral a través de mejoras de procesos y compras de créditos de energía renovable.
