The paper discusses an EPA assessment of non-process solvent emissions from 15 industrial and commercial source categories in support of the Consumer and Commercial Products Report to Congress which was mandated in Section 183(e) of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. These products include both traditional and non-traditional consumer products, i.e., solvents used by industry and commercial operations that are not part of a manufacturing production line or incorporated into a product as part of the manufacturing process. The categories are: automotive repair; bakeries; building renovation; chemical manufacturing; electrical equipment maintenance; florists; furniture repair and restoration; heating; air conditioning, and refrigeration service; machine shops; mold release agents; office products; quick print shops; road paving; roofing; and textile manufacturing.
