RE: Mercury from onroad mobile source



Hi Cong,

 

I have a faint memory of some information on this, but don’t recall the specifics. I believe they may have stopped using the prior emission factor because they believed that ½ of the detection limit was either very likely to be a large overestimate or was just too uncertain. I wonder if someone else in the group has any more specifics. If EPA is no longer including this, it may be an item we want to try to track down a factor for our own use in the future.

Hi Jon,

 

Do you any information on the Mercury from on-road mobile sources? The mercury emissions decrease significantly in 2005 comparing to 2002. In 2002, the Hg emission factors were taken as haft the detection limits. I can’t locate any mercury emissions in 2005 NEI on-road mobile source data you posted earlier! Thanks.

 

Cong,
