1.Protect air quality
 All Renault vehicles are manufactured at industrial sites respecting ISO 14001, a standard whose content includes approval of the procedures put in place by the site to cut atmospheric emissions....
 
2.Tandil
 Considerable efforts were made to improve atmospheric emissions through three objectives that we achieved during the year : dry dust collection from the last two electric furnaces (last furnace installed in March 2007) ; wet dust collection in the casting sand preparation sector ; and almost complete elimination of atmospheric emissions from the core room....
 
3.Dieppe - ALPINE
 Atmospheric emissions in 2007 were 8 % lower than in 2006....
 
4.Flins
 Since the start-up of in 2000, fuel-oil consumption has been reduced in favour of gas, which has a lower impact on atmospheric emissions.... Highlights Silva Bernardi, environment manager : " Flins reported a substantial reduction in atmospheric emissions in 2007, especially in VOCs, after we shut down the 100 % solvent-based paint line for Twingo, and in sulphur dioxide after the last fuel-oil boiler was taken out of service....
 
5.Lardy - Centre technique
 Having risen the previous year, SO2 emissions started to head down in 2007, falling by 2 %. Total atmospheric emissions therefore fell.... First, major investments were made in reducing atmospheric emissions.... Maintenance of cooling and air-conditioning facilities continued apace to prevent accidental atmospheric emissions....
 
6.Saint-André de l'Eure - SOFRASTOCK International
 The replacement of the heating facilities across the whole site reduced atmospheric emissions....
 
7.Dacia (Roumania)
 We continued the ECO Energy programme, which helped bring down electrical and heat energy consumption, preserving natural resources and lowering atmospheric emissions.... The new water-based paint lines came on stream and we started using new bumper paint that contributes to reducing atmospheric emissions....
 
8.The combined heat and power facility
 This income lowers the installation's running costs and depreciation expenses.A major reduction in atmospheric emissions. Combined heat and power systems provide a means to reduce atmospheric emissions and to preserve the environment.. By replacing a coal-fired plant with a combined heat and power unit for steam generation, sulphur dioxide emissions are reduced by 40 %, and emissions of nitrogen oxides by 7 %..
 
9.Protect air quality
 Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) are the main source of atmospheric emissions generated by Renault's industrial activities.... Combustion emissions of SO2 and NOx Renault is replacing fuel-oil boilers by natural gas boilers that significantly reduce atmospheric emissions of SO2 and NOx....
 
10.Acidification
 Based on 3 criteria, Renault eco² is awarded in particular to vehicles manufactured on sites that reduce their atmospheric emissions....
