This report provides emission-factor estimates for volatile organic compounds (VOCs), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and sulfur oxides (SOx) that were developed from a variety of readily available information. As part of the National Acid Precipitation Assessment Program (NAPAP), the EPA identified the need to generate emission factors for VOCs for about 1800 source classification categories (SCCs). Additionally, emission-factor development was needed for NOx, SOx, and VOCs for SCCs that states have used to report emissions. The objective of the effort was to estimate VOC emission factors for all SCCs where VOC factors were previously absent, and to develop NOx and SOx emission factors for SCCs that states had reported as emission sources.
