Background knowledge of petroleum – Image: Xpert.Digital

Even if petroleum or the “outdated use of petroleum” is primarily responsible for the greenhouse effect and global warming, it still remains an important resource.

• Even the production of renewable energy products requires petroleum as a raw material.
• Almost all of our everyday products are based on petroleum.
• Petroleum is not only an energy source, but also an important raw material for plastic.
• Plastic is the colloquial name for all kinds of plastics.
• Synthetic rubber, obtained from petroleum, also accounts for 60% of the total rubber requirement. Up to 70% of all rubber goes into the production of car tires.

The amount of plastic produced worldwide has risen sharply in the last almost 70 years - from 1.5 million tons (1950) to around 370 million tons in 2019. The drivers of this increase in the last 20 years have been Asian countries in particular - especially China.
