JAMAICA’S SUMMARY OF ANNUAL EMISSIONS FROM MAJOR AND SIGNIFICANT FACILITIES

2012

The inventory is a compilation of emissions from thirty six (36) industries that emit to the atmosphere in Jamaica. Most of the facilities are classified as “Major Facilities” and “Significant Facilities” as defined by the Natural Resources Conservation Authority (Air Quality) Regulations 2006. The emissions are based on a combination of stack test data, estimations using AP42 Emission factors and Mass Balance calculations.  This does not represent the sum total of all emissions released to the atmosphere each year as data is still outstanding from some industries, vehicular traffic and some volume and area sources. However, the total emissions in each category is a fair indicator of the emissions to the atmosphere as they represent 80% of the air emissions generated in Jamaica each year.
