| Abstract | To support the fast growing economic development, Thailand's energy consumption has rapidly increased during the last two decades, which led to 198 million tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2), representing about 70% of the total national greenhouse gas emissions in 2011. Among all energy related emission sources of CO2, power generation constitutes the top emitter with more than 40% of the total. However, a national detailed emission inventory in this sector, which appropriately supports air quality management and planning, is still very scarce. In this study, we developed a bottom-up inventory of emissions from power generation in Thailand in 2010. Pollutants of interest include NOx, SO2, CO, NMVOC, NH3, PM10, and PM2.5, CH4 N2O, and CO2, Activity data were collected from official statistics and reports. Energy conversion and emission control technologies in use data were gathered by plant survey in order to appropriately select emission factors. The preliminary overall results showed that in 2010 the power generation in Thailand emitted 92.0? 103 tonnes of NOx, 57.5 ? 103 tonnes of SO2 , 20.9 ? 103 tonnes of CO, 6.3 ? 103 tonnes of NMVOC, 1.1 ? 103 tonnes of NH3, 30.3 ? 103 tonnes of PM10, and 18.7 ? 103 tonnes of PM2.5, 50.2 ? 103 tonnes of CH4, 0.8 ? 103 tonnes of N2O, and 87.6 ? 103 tonnes of CO2. Emissions were then analyzed vs. fuel consumption, energy conversion technology, and emission control technology. For all investigated pollutants, the results are displayed in the form of 10 km x 10 km gridded map, to enable a visualization of spatial distribution of the emissions, and a direct use for air quality modeling. Finally, a comparison to regional and global inventories such as REAS and IIASA_GAINS is presented and discussed. |
