accounting <strong>for</strong> 94 % of the PM2.5 emission from stationary combustion<br />

plants.<br />

The primary sources of PM emissions are:<br />

• Residential boilers, stoves and fireplaces combusting wood<br />

• Farmhouse boilers combusting straw<br />

• Power plants primarily combusting coal<br />

• Coal and residual oil combusted in industrial boilers and processes<br />

The PM emission from wood combusted in residential plants is the predominant<br />

source. Thus, 90 % of the PM2.5 emission from stationary combustion<br />

is emitted from residential wood combustion. This corresponds to 68 %<br />

of the national emission. A literature review (Nielsen et al., 2003) and a Nordic<br />

Project (Sternhufvud et al., 2004) have demonstrated that the emission<br />

factor uncertainty <strong>for</strong> residential combustion of wood in stoves and boilers is<br />

notably high.<br />

Figure 3.16 shows the fuel consumption and the PM2.5 emission of residential<br />

plants. Wood combustion accounts <strong>for</strong> 97 % of the PM2.5 emission from<br />

residential plants in spite of a wood consumption share of 42 %.<br />

Emission inventories <strong>for</strong> PM have only been reported <strong>for</strong> the years 2000-<br />

2010. Time series <strong>for</strong> PM emission from stationary combustion are shown in<br />

Figure 3.17. The emission of TSP, PM10 and PM2.5 has increased 44 %, 46 %<br />

and 50 %, respectively, since year 2000. The increase is caused by the increased<br />

wood combustion in residential plants. However, the PM emission<br />

factors have decreased <strong>for</strong> this emission source category due to installation<br />

of modern stoves and boilers. The decreased wood consumption in residential<br />

plants in 2007-2009 and the increase in 2010 has resulted in a decrease of<br />

PM emission from stationary combustion in 2007-2009 and in an increase in<br />

2010.<br />

The time series <strong>for</strong> PM emission from stationary combustion plants follows<br />

the time series <strong>for</strong> PM emission from residential plants.<br />
