EVALUATION OF CARBON FOOTPRINT FOR WOOD BASED PANEL INDUSTRY IN TURKEY

In wood-based panel industry, the importance of carbon footprint has increased due to global warming and climate change all around the world. So this topic has been studied extensively in the world, especially in developed countries. Eventhough wood based panel industry is one of the most important industry in Turkey there is not any comprehensive study in this field so this study was planned to meet the requirement in industry which release a lot of emissions to the environment. In recent years the use of wood-based panels such as fiber board, particleboard, oriented strand board, plywood etc., have been increased due to the fast growth in bulding trade in Turkey. The world’s largest board producers are China, USA, Germany and Turkey respectively. This charges the industry a great responsibility for the environment because sustainable development is a development that meets the needs of the present without making a concession the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. From this perspective, it is essential to know the current status of the sector concerning CO2 footprint, energy footprint and water footprint. This study is aimed to investigate one of the largest board producer industry of Turkey whether clean production (less emission) is carried out or not. Besides, it is aimed to present some improvements to decrease the emission. Carbon footprint values are calculated as statistically with Tier method during the particle board production, and Pareto anaysis method is used for determine the footprint’ problem. Consequently, a liveable environment will be provided and environmental oriented production will be supported to contribute to these properties in the industry for this issue in the scope of this research. Also, this study shall provide a general view and perception for the importance of the carbon footprint in the industrial sector.
