Description:
In conjunction with the Regional Air Pollution Study (RAPS) being conducted in the St. Louis Air Quality Control Region (AQCR), an inventory of non-criteria pollutants was assembled for point sources. The inventory was based on the following data: (1) The National Emissions Data System (NEDS) inventory for the AQCR; this inventory is based largely on 1971 and 1972 data, and (2) Emission factors listed in the several reports in the series entitled 'National Inventory of Sources and Emissions,' which list estimated emission factors for the following 21 compounds: Arsenic, Asbestos, Barium, Beryllium, Boron, Cadmium, Chromium, Copper, Lead, Magnesium, Manganese, Mercury, Molybdenum, Nickel, Phosphorus, Selenium, Silver, Titanium, Vanadium, Zinc, and BaP. The non-criteria emission factors are being incorporated into the RAPS Data Handling System, and yearly point source inventories for non-criteria pollutants are available.
