About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

Covestro operates a nitrous oxide abatement system on its nitric acid production unit at the Baytown, Texas site to destroy N2O emissions at source. The project has been running continuously since 2010 and is maintained in partnership with external operators. Evidence: "Covestro’s abatement efforts on our nitric acid unit eliminate nitrous oxide at its source and create permanent and irreversible emissions reductions" — https://www.covestro.com/press/pioneering-climate-action-project-continues-to-eliminate-super-pollutants-at-scale
