The emission of NOX from production of catalysts/fertilisers decreases from<br />

1996 to 2009, whereas the emission of NH3 increases. Fluctuations and the<br />

increase in the “emission factor” can explain the increase in NH3 emission.<br />

The emission of NMVOC from production of pesticides is reduced significantly<br />

from 1990 to 2010 (Cheminova, 2010). The decrease can probably be<br />

explained by introduction of flue gas cleaning equipment rather than any<br />

decrease in activity. The emission of SO2 is from the sulphur regeneration<br />

plant (Claus plant).<br />

The time series will be explained further in the following section.<br />

The emission of SO2, NOX, NH3 and TSP from production of sulphuric acid,<br />

nitric acid and fertiliser is measured yearly or estimated, from 1990 to 2004<br />

(TSP from 2000 to 2004) (Kemira GrowHow, 2005). PM10 and PM2.5 are estimated<br />

from the distribution between TSP, PM10 and PM2.5 from CEPMEIP<br />

(2003). The emission <strong>for</strong> SO2 and NOX <strong>for</strong> 1991 to 1993 was estimated by using<br />

interpolated emission factors and activity data. Production of sulphuric<br />

acid was stopped in 1997 and production of nitric acid was stopped in 2004.<br />

The emission factor <strong>for</strong> SO2 fluctuated and the emission factor <strong>for</strong> NOX decreased<br />

from 1990 to 2004. Production of sulphuric acid decreased from approximately<br />

150 000 to 60 000 tonnes from 1990 to 1996, and production of<br />

nitric acid decreased from approximately 450 000 to 229 000 tonnes from<br />

1990 to 2004. Overall, production of fertiliser decreased from approximately<br />

800 000 to approximately 395 000 tonnes from 1990 to 2004.<br />

The emission of NH3, NOX and TSP from production of catalysts and fertilisers<br />

is measured yearly from 1996 to 2010 (TSP from 2000 to 2010) (Haldor<br />

Topsøe, 2011). PM10 and PM2.5 are estimated from the distribution between<br />

TSP, PM10 and PM2.5 from CEPMEIP (2003). The process-related NOX emission<br />

has been estimated as 80 % of the total NOX emission; Haldor Topsøe<br />

reports this assumption in their environmental report. The emission of NH3<br />

shows an increasing trend and varies between 13 and 123 tonne from 1990 to<br />

2010. In the same period, the production of catalysts and fertilisers increased<br />

from approximately 33 000 to 45 000 tonnes.<br />

The emission of NMVOC from production of pesticides is measured yearly<br />

from 1990 to 2000 (Cheminova, 2011) and estimated <strong>for</strong> 2001 to 2010. An<br />
