Rio Frio Carbon Offset Project
Abstract*
The Colombia Rio Frio Carbon Offset Project aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions fro the wastewater treatment sector in Colombia by modernizing the Rio Frio waste water treatment plant, located in Giron, Colombia. This modernization will result in abatements of methane and nitrous oxide emissions of about 39 kilo tons of carbon dioxide equivalents per year and in an improved effluent quality from the plant. The project constitutes a "proof of concept"... Show More
Development Objective
