PM Emission Inventories -Scientific Workshop

This scientific workshop provides an overview of particulate matter (PM) emissions, covering conceptual issues, individual source sectors, PM details, and inventorying experience. It discusses the serious health issues associated with PM2.5 and highlights the optimization of resources and consideration of mitigation potential. The workshop also addresses the importance of BC and total C in PM and explores methodologies and inventory experience from Australia, USA, and Europe. Next steps include utilizing available methodologies, deriving emission factors, and collaborating to expand the guidebook on PM emission inventories.

Presentation Transcript

  1. PM Emission Inventories -Scientific Workshop Wilfried Winiwarter, IIASA, rapporteur 5th Joint UNECE Task Force & EIONET Workshop on Emission Inventories and Projections Lago Maggiore, Italy, October 18 – 20, 2004

  2. Overview • Particulate matter – conceptual issues • Individual source sectors • PM details • Inventorying experience • Where to go to…

  3. Concepts • Serious health issue • Strongest evidence towards PM2.5 • Optimization of resources • Consider mitigation potential • Ignorance on fugitives: irrelevant for PM2.5 • Add-ons to PM emissions:HM, POP, spatial, temporal resolution …

  4. Source sectors covered • Internal combustion engines • Resuspension emissions • Domestic heating • (agricultural fugitives) • (wildfires) • (secondary particles)

  5. PM in detail • Importance of BC and total C • Modelling to understand contributions of sources • Subdividing PM emissions: temporal split

  6. Inventory experience • Matter of scales • Differences in results • Differences in potential data input • Methodologies of large-scale inventories • Australia • U.S.A. • Europe

  7. Next steps • Methodologies are available • Emission factors have been derived • Browse through guidebook for missing sectors/chapters • Pool resources to append guidebook!(example of Nordic Council)
