## Description

This MCP server provides a specialized calculation engine for quantifying carbon dioxide emissions within refinery operations. It allows AI agents to accurately calculate Scope 1 emissions using `get_scope_1_emissions`, determine indirect emissions via `get_scope_2_emissions`, evaluate efficiency with `get_emission_intensity`, and assess net carbon positions through `calculate_carbon_balance`. It is designed to help industrial operators align with GHG Protocol standards by differentiating between combustion and process emissions.

## Tools

### calculate_carbon_balance
Determine the net carbon position of the refinery

### get_emission_intensity
Determine the efficiency of carbon output relative to production volume

### get_scope_1_emissions
Calculate the total direct emissions produced by combustion and chemical processes

### get_scope_2_emissions
Calculate the indirect emissions resulting from purchased energy

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the Scope 1 emissions for 500 metric tonnes of natural gas with 50 metric tonnes of process emissions.
```

**Response:** 
```
The total Scope 1 emissions are 545.0 metric tonnes.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What are the Scope 2 emissions for consuming 1000 MWh on a renewable grid?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total Scope 2 emissions are 50.0 metric tonnes.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Determine the carbon balance if total emissions are 1000 tonnes and 1200 tonnes are captured.
```

**Response:** 
```
The net carbon position is -200.0 metric tonnes, meaning the facility is carbon neutral.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How are Scope 1 emissions calculated?**
Scope 1 emissions are calculated by summing combustion emissions (fuel consumption multiplied by the specific fuel emission factor) and direct process emissions.

**Can I calculate my refinery's carbon neutrality status?**
Yes, by using the `calculate_carbon_balance` tool, you can determine if your net carbon position is zero or less, indicating carbon neutrality.

**What is emission intensity?**
Emission intensity is the ratio of total emissions to the production volume, which helps compare efficiency across different facilities.
