- Chemical manufacturing operations produce direct greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
- Chemical manufacturing operations can also generate air emissions such as sulfur dioxides (SOx), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs)
- The chemical manufacturing industry is known for its high energy consumption
- Water plays a crucial role as a process input in the production of chemicals
- Chemical manufacturing has the potential to produce hazardous process waste
- Issues related to environmental policy, community health, and process safety carry significant regulatory, operational, financial and reputational implications
- Workers within chemical manufacturing facilities are exposed to various health and safety risks
- Ensuring health, safety, and effective emergency management remains a paramount concern
