Figure 2.6 CO emissions. Distribution according to the main sectors (2010) and time series for 1990 to 2010.
2.3.3 Particulate Matter (PM)
The particulate matter (PM) emission inventory is reported for the years
2000-2010. The inventory includes the total emission of particles TSP (Total
Suspended Particles), emission of particles smaller than 10 µm (PM10) and
emission of particles smaller than 2.5 µm (PM2.5).
The largest PM2.5 emission sources are residential plants (71 %), road traffic
(9 %) and other mobile sources (8 %). For the latter, the most important
sources are off-road vehicles and machinery in the industrial sector and in
the agricultural/forestry sector (32 % and 37 %, respectively). For the road
transport sector, exhaust emissions account for the major part (64 %) of the
emissions. The PM2.5 emission increased by 30 % from 2000 to 2010 due to an
increasing wood consumption in the residential sector.
The largest TSP emission sources are the residential sector and the agricultural
sector. The TSP emissions from transport are also important and include
both exhaust emissions and the non-exhaust emissions from brake and
tyre wear and road abrasion. The non-exhaust emissions account for 62 % of
the TSP emission from road transport.
