This category covers mainly NMVOC emissions resulting from the use
of solvents and other products containing volatile compounds. It
also includes CO2 and NO2 emissions from anesthetic and propellant
gases. The only relevant part to Lebanon in this sector is paint
applications, degreasing and dry cleaning. In Lebanon the amount of
paint used in 1994 is estimated as 669 tons, while the amount of
degreasing and dry cleaning solvents is estimated as 2,7706 tons in
1994, [1]. The IPCC 1996 guidelines for national greenhouse gas
inventories [2], does not provide emission factors of the amount of
greenhouse gas per ton of solvent which is necessary to calculate
the emitted amounts of gases.
