Photochemical ozone creation potentials (POCPs) for different emission sources of organic compounds under European conditions estimated with a Master Chemical Mechanism
AbstractThrough the combined application of a speciated VOC emission inventory and an explicit chemical mechanism, a picture has been put together of the different contributions to photochemical ozone formation from 248 VOC emission source categories. The study has shown that the different VOC emission source categories show vastly different propensities for forming photochemical ozone as indexed by their photochemical ozone creation potentials (POCPs). POCPs range from close to zero for numerous processes, including halocarbon solvent usage, through to over 70 for diesel combustion and some reactive solvent and other product usage applications. The consequences of the large range in POCPs are highlighted for cost-effective VOC emission control strategies across north west Europe.
