3 Executive summary for the chemicals sector Construction of different future production trajectories In a high growth scenario overall chemical activities increase by 20% in 2050 compared to 2010, equivalent to an average growth rate of 0.49%, which could be considered as a fair compromise between high historical growth rates for Belgium and the stabilisation of the chemical sector at the European level. In a neutral scenario a zero growth is assumed, which expresses the view that Belgium remains an important producer of chemicals, but as the market for final products stabilises in Europe it is assumed that new activities will be mainly located outside Europe. In the low growth scenario, the activities decrease by 50% compared to 2010 levels and expresses a rather pessimistic view for the Belgian Chemical sector. Estimate of potential and cost for the GHG reduction opportunities Development of green chemistry, i.e. chemical products produced from biomass or algae production might contribute by replacing fossil based plastics and by fixing carbon in materials for several years. Energy efficiency might improve by better process control and reducing heat losses and energy performance of new plants might significantly outweigh those of existing plants. In traditional chemistry, a significant penetration of biomass is unlikely due to the specific processes, but hydrogen production can be based on electrolysis. CCS is also considered as an option, starting with process CO2 emissions from hydrogen and ammonia production and later on for bigger installations emitting more than 1Mton/year NOTE Except explicit mention, the reduction potential figures are mentioned at constant production, as reduction percentage versus Actions are applied in sequential order and the biomass potential is not included in the total. Levers are of ambition 3 (except for CCS where level 2 is also detailed) 3
