## Description

This MCP server provides specialized tools for chemical manufacturers to quantify their environmental impact. By integrating with the GHG Protocol methodology, it allows AI agents to calculate total process footprints, evaluate individual material impacts, and manage emission distribution across multiple products. Use `get_process_footprint` to determine total Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, `get_material_impact` to identify high-emission raw materials, `get_transport_footprint` for logistics emissions, and `get_allocation_summary` to distribute emissions based on mass or economic value.

## Tools

### get_allocation_summary
Distributes the total process emissions across various products based on a chosen logic

### get_material_impact
Evaluates the specific carbon contribution of individual raw materials used in a process

### get_process_footprint
Calculates the total carbon footprint for a specific chemical process

### get_transport_footprint
Calculates emissions specifically generated by moving goods

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the total carbon footprint for a process using 500kg of Material A (EF: 2.5) and 200kg of Material B (EF: 1.2), with 50kWh of electricity (EF: 0.4).
```

**Response:** 
```
The total carbon footprint for this process is 1,430 kg CO2e, with an emission intensity of 2.86 kg CO2e per kg of product.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the carbon impact of using 1000kg of high-impact raw material with an emission factor of 5.0?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total material emissions for this component is 5,000 kg CO2e.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate transport emissions for a 5-tonne shipment traveling 500km by truck with an emission factor of 0.1.
```

**Response:** 
```
The total transport emissions for this leg is 250 kg CO2e.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does this tool handle different emission scopes?**
The `get_process_footprint` tool calculates Scope 1 (direct), Scope 2 (indirect energy), and Scope 3 (value chain) emissions based on the inputs provided for raw materials, energy, and transport.

**Can I distribute emissions between multiple products?**
Yes, you can use `get_allocation_summary` to distribute total emissions using either mass-based or economic-based allocation logic.

**How are transport emissions calculated?**
Transport emissions are calculated using `get_transport_footprint`, which multiplies distance, weight, and the specific emission factor for the chosen transport mode.
