Ermittlung und Evaluierung von Emissionsfaktoren fuer Feuerungsanlagen in Deutschland fuer die Jahre 1995, 2000, 2010

In this study emission factors for combustion installations subject to authorisation in Germany were determined for the years 1995, 2000 and 2010. If focuses on boilers and gas turbine systems used for the public and industrial power supply. The report is divided into the following three sections: Large combustion plants, firing installations subject to the Technical Instructions on Air as well as gas turbines. As an introduction to each section the applied firing and emission reduction techniques are described. Subsequently, the different sectors to be considered are characterized briefly. For the derivation of the emission factors a methodology was selected classifying the installed combustion techniques according to their emission behaviour. Main characteristics for this classification were the type of boiler and the thermal capacity. For these classes emission factors for the pollutants SO_2, NO_x, CO, dust, N_2O and VOC were determined. The data basis used consists of information from the relevant technical literature but also from plant operators, associations' statistics, producers and emission declarations from selected German Federal States. In a further step the technology specific factors were aggregated according to the installations' structure within the sector of concern. The emission factors were derived for the year of reference 1995. The projections for the years 2000 and 2010 were calculated for the individual sectors, considering a modification of the installations' structure leading to an increase of low emission techniques. The projections take into account the future changes in the legislative framework. For the new Federal States the end of the transition period for the implementation of the 13 BImSchV plays an important role. For the different classes, sectors and pollutants considered almost 4,800 individual emission factors were determined and summarised in a data base to be integrated into the central system of the German Federal Environmental Agency for the emission calculation.
