Data and method

These are records from the existing Inzonex page, not a complete worldwide inventory or a ranking of every factory. Estimates use 100-year global warming potential and are stated in tonnes of CO₂ equivalent. Records may cover different industrial processes or overlapping operations; no distinct-facility total is calculated. Earlier undated values do not establish a trend. The aluminium source sector includes records whose names refer to different production processes. Inclusion is not independent confirmation that each record is an aluminium smelter.
