Analysis
The most recent figure for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial processes in Vietnam is 2.19 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
The figure is up 9.0% on the previous year and up 77.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial processes in Vietnam peaked at 2.19 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.2771 Mt CO2e, in 1976.
That places Vietnam 30th out of 203 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from industrial processes including IPCC 2006 codes 2.A.1 Cement production, 2.A.2 Lime production, 2.A.3 Glass Production, 2.A.4 Other Process Uses of Carbonates, 2.B Chemical Industry, 2.C Metal Industry, 2.D Non-Energy Products from Fuels and Solvent Use, 2.E Electronics Industry, 2.F Product Uses as Substitutes for Ozone Depleting Substances, 2.G Other Product Manufacture and Use and 5.A Indirect N2O emissions from the atmospheric deposition of nitrogen in NOx and NH3). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
