NMVOC emissions per 500m grid in the Upper Rhine (2021)
Produced as part of the Interreg Upper Rhine Atmo-Rhena PLUS project, this map shows emissions of non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOCs) in the Upper Rhine region in 2021.
Limiting air pollutant emissions is the most important lever for reducing pollutant concentrations in the atmosphere. The cross-border emissions inventory, on which this map is based, makes it possible to determine the contributions of different sectors of activity and energy sources to emissions of various air pollutants and thus to identify actions to reduce pollutant concentrations in the atmosphere.
NMVOCs are a wide variety of pollutants with multiple emission sources. Industrial and domestic use of solvents, road transport and other forms of transport (fuel combustion and evaporation from tanks, or windscreen washer fluid and de-icers) are significant sources of emissions. The consumption of fuels (fossil or natural) also emits NMVOCs, but to a lesser extent than the activities mentioned above.
Volatile organic compounds are ozone precursors and thus contribute to summer pollution peaks.
The static map in PDF format is available at a scale of 500m. The data is accessible as open data only at the scale of EPCI, Kreis and Cantons.

Collection of estimated emissions for the Grand Est region (ATMO Grand Est), Baden-Württemberg (Landesanstalt für Umwelt Baden-Württemberg – LUBW), the cantons of Basel-Stadt and Basel-Landschaft (Lufthygienamt Beider Basel – LHA), Rhineland-Palatinate (Landesamt für Umwelt Rheinland-Pfalz – LfU), the Canton of Jura (Office de l'environnement - ENV Jura) and the Canton of Aargau (Departement Bau, Verkehr und Umwelt – BVU Aargau). Data for the cantons of Jura, Aargau and Solothurn were recorded based on cantonal or municipal data.
