Solvent-use-emissions estimation methodologies: Future implications. Rept. for Feb-May 91
The paper reviews uses of emissions data from solvent use activities and evaluates how the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (CAAA) will affect future solvent use emissions estimation methodologies. Results of the work will be used to identify research opportunities and in planning activities that will be pursued by the Joint Emissions Inventory Oversight Group (JEIOG) over the next 2 or 3 years. CAAA requirements place increasing emphasis on baseline and future-year emissions inventories. The JEIOG, cochaired by EPA's Air and Energy Engineering Research Laboratory (AEERL), Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards (OAQPS), and Atmospheric Research and Exposure Assessment Laboratory (AREAL), is coordinating research programs to: (1) evaluate existing methodologies for estimating emissions of criteria pollutants to support state implementation plan and national emissions inventory data, and (2) recommend improvements to those methodologies if warranted. One aspect of the research is focused on the development of emissions inventories for solvent use activities.
