1 Update of Austrian PM emission inventory Wilfried Winiwarter, Hermann Schmidt-Stejskal, Andreas Windsperger and Traute Köther 10th joint TFEIP/EIONET meeting, Vienna, May 11/12, 2009

2 © systems research Overview Characteristics of particulate matter The Austrian emission inventory: basic situation Results and open questions Outlook: PM emissions in Europe

3 © systems research Characteristics PM … not a unique compound PM properties Size Chemical composition Optical properties

4 © systems research Atmospheric lifetime Release process: Friction or agglomeration? Atmospheric behaviour, removal (note: atmospheric formation) Impact: health; climate TSP PM10 PM2.5 Wittmaack et al.

5 © systems research Emission sources Based on activity data / system of OLI (Austrian inventory system) First PM inventory for Austria completed in 2001 Update completed by end 2007 Follows CORINAIR SNAP categories, adaptations for PM emissions Considers international activities, when documented

10 © systems research Road transport tons

11 © systems research Agriculture tons

12 © systems research Potential emissions Fugitive emissions: small emission rate at large area Source-based measurements frequently provide alarming estimates: (road dust suspension) Animal housing Field operations Rail transport Quarries Wind blown dust Discrepancy between release potential and actual release
