Abstract

An overview of sources of PAHs in the Czech Republic and that of the values of emission factors and annual emissions are given. Residential heating, coal fired stations, and production of PAHs, carbon black, and coke were identified as the major sources of PAHs in Czech Republic. The total annual emission of 16 PAHs suggested by US EPA was assessed at 700 to 735 tons per annum.
