Improvements since Submission 2013

The following changes were introduced since the 2013 Submission:

Revision of all CO emission factors of large and medium combustion plants (NFRs 1.A.1 & 2)
Newly reported mercury emissions from chemical industry (NFR 2.B)
Consideration of biofuel use in off-road mobile sources (NFRs 1.A.2.f ii, 1.A.4.b ii, 1.A.4.c ii, and 1.A.5.b)
Consideration of exhaust heavy-metal emissions from off-road mobile sources with respect to new tier1 EF from the EMEP/EEA guidebook 2013 (NFRs 1.A.2.f ii, 1.A.4.b ii, 1.A.4.c ii, and 1.A.5.b)
Further revision of CNG and LPG use in road transport (NFR 1.A.3.b)
Newly implemented Hg emissions from the chloro-alkali industry (NFR 2.B.5)

Planned for future submissions

Possible improvement issues that have been identified so far and will be checked in the future are given below:
