Accounting of Carbon Emissions in the Process of Wastewater Treatment from the Perspective of Environmental Protection

Abstract Environmental protection has become an important part of my country’s economic development. Sewage treatment is an important part of environmental protection. There are many sewage treatment plants in various regions of the country, with various treatment methods applied, and overall treatment conditions are also different. Theoretically speaking, a large amount of greenhouse gases will be produced in the process of sewage treatment, and it is necessary to account for the produced greenhouse gases in order to ensure the economic benefits of the treatment. Carbon emissions are the most important accounting process, and the accuracy of accounting is a key concern. This article mainly analyzes the accounting boundary of sewage treatment technology, provides a reasonable basis for the accounting of carbon emissions with three commonly used accounting methods, and analyzes related comprehensive characteristics.
