This study aims to identify and outline the key conditions for the chemical industry to reach netzero GHG emissions along planet compatible pathways between 2020 and 2050. Emissions from feedstock sourcing, production, use phase and end-of-life emissions are considered (Table ). We construct a dynamic production facility supply model, based almost exclusively on opensource data, which responds to different inputs (e.g., cost, carbon abatement, feedstock) and 50 production technologies (Figure ), across 10 geographic regions. We focus on eight primary chemicals: ammonia, methanol, olefins (ethylene, propylene, butadiene), aromatics (benzene, toluene, xylene), and two derivatives (ammonium nitrate, urea) that currently account for ~72% of global chemical industry production GHG emissions, two-thirds of energy used, and ~82% of primary chemical production by mass.
