CORINAIR

Unified methodology for emissions inventory
Many years ago, in order to mesure length, people created
and introduced a model. We can see it near to Paris.
To compare emissions from different countries and years,
CORINAIR is being developed in Europe for years.

SNAP

Selected Nomenclature for Air Pollution

SNAP’90 / 94 / 97
SNAP’97 consist of11 groups,
74 sub-group385 elementary positions
Each elementary position can be split additionally todifferent type of technology and fuels

SNAP positions
occuring in emission inventories in cement plants

3.1- combustion in boilers, gas turbines and stationary engines
3.3.11 - cement, combustion in manufacturing industry; processes with contact
4.6.12 - cement (decarbonizing),
5.1.3 - storage of solid fuel5.5.3 - service stations (including refuelling of cars)
7.1.3 - urban driving - passenger cars
7.2.3 - urban driving - light duty vehicles < 3.5 t
7.3.3 - urban driving - heavy duty vehicles > 3.5 t and buses
7.6- gasoline evaporation from vehicles
8.8- other mobile sources and machinery - industry
8.2- railways
9.10.1 - waste water treatment in industry

Comment (sources)

Planned users of Phare Emission Factors database:
Reference Centre (national experts) of the countries
which are preparing the CORINAIR emission inventory
for the first time
There is no need for a special software.
Windows environment with MS Office package is enough.
Sources of the data - national EMEP/CORINAIR emission inventory

Quality control:
Sending the db to NE for checking. Review by PTL/AE experts.
Sending to ETC/AE for comments. Formal EEA approvalfor dissemination.

Access policy:
To be put on PTL/AE web site in Excel format and on internet
webserver after formal approval of the countries
and EEA Project Manager and EEA Phare Expert

Working language: English

Problems:
No clear, automatic differentiation was possible between
real country specific emission factor anddefault CORINAIR emission factor. Lack of quality parameterand detail source data

After formal approval
the Phare countries Emission Factors Database
will be available at:www.ptl-ae.atmoterm.pl9

to the larger planet organism, just as mitochondria
are subordinate to the cell. Part of the function ofa healthy cell is to monitor the productions of its
mitochondria, and ration resources according tothe needs of the larger organism for thoseproducts. From the perspective of the cell, or thelarger earth, what goes into and what comes out of
the subordinate entity must be closely monitored,
while what actually goes on in the sub-entity is oflesser concern. “
