1.Protect air quality
 In 2007 VOC emissions per average vehicle produced within the scope of the objective (scope : production in 2001) fell to 4.07 kg / veh.... VOC emissions per average vehicle produced for the Group as a whole fell from 7 kg per vehicle to 4.8 kg between 1988 and end - 2007.... Today more than 75 % of sites are equipped with the latest clean technologies, and all Group sites worldwide control their VOC emissions, applying an identical and exhaustive accounting system to both point and diffuse emissions....
 
2.Batilly Sovab
 The plant has developed an emissions reduction plan on Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), which reduced emissions by 15 % between 1998 and 2001. In 2002 and 2003, new processes to ensure the manufacturer's six-year anti-corrosion warranty and the use of new colour tints resulted in an increase in VOC emissions....
 
3.Dieppe - ALPINE
 The reduction in VOC emissions can be attributed to efforts made at every stage of the body paint application process.... The gradual utilisation of water-based paints enabled the site to reduce VOC emissions by 20 % in 2006 compared with 2005....
 
4.Douai
 VOC emissions per vehicle have fallen as a result of efforts made at each stage of the bodywork paint application process, and through use of. In addition, energy recovery incinerators have been installed for the VOCs produced by mastics and electrocoating.... In ten years the Douai plant has reduced its VOC emissions by two thirds and is now leads the group in this field....
 
5.Sandouville
 Continuous improvement efforts in the processes of applying and recovering solvents have sharply reduced VOC emissions per painted vehicle over the past 10 years.... To cut VOC emissions, the site recently invested Euro60 million to upgrade the base application process. Since June 2006, a paint that contains 10 times less solvent has been used on the two process lines. "...
 
6.Valladolid Body Assembly (Spain)
 The plant has cut total VOC emissions by 75 % since 1999.... In 2007, VOC emissions per vehicle fell by 26 % on 2006 through the use of water-based paints. That reduction came on top of a 45 % decrease in VOC emissions between 1998 and 2007 attributable to : incinerating gases with energy recovery, recycling solvents, installing a new oven, applying electrostatic paint, introducing water-based paint technology. actions to reduce VOCs....
 
7.Bursa - OYAK
 VOC emissions fell 32 % from 7.34 kg / veh. in 2003 to 5.0 kg / veh. in 2007. In order to keep cutting VOC emissions, the plant will pursue research, kaizen, etc....
 
8.Using water-based paints
 VOCs are emitted throughout the painting process, in the application booths and the baking ovens.In the past few years, VOC emissions have been reduced by using the best available technology, particularly water-based paints.. Example : plant. The breakdown of VOC emissions at the Douai plant prior to modification (Year of Reference : 1997).
 
9.Moscou - AVTOFRAMOS
 To better quantify its emissions and measure the impact of efforts made, in 2006 the plant started to calculate its VOC emissions materials balance based on the balance model used at other sites.... The site is analysing this aspect in order to determine appropriate ways to reduce VOC emissions....
 
10.Ozone and particulates
 By modifying its paint application processes, Renault has considerably reduced its VOC emissions....
