About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

Installation of a flare gas recovery system at YPF's Luján de Cuyo industrial complex to capture and utilize waste gases from refining processes, replacing fossil fuels in furnaces and boilers. This on-site project reduces Scope 1 emissions in YPF's own downstream operations. The project remains active with reported reductions of approximately 79,687 tCO2e per year.
