This brings the values of the ESIG inventories and the Member States data closer, but there is a difference of around 20% in the reported solvents VOC emissions. The inventories confirm that the VOC emissions from solvents have stabilised in the EU27+UK since 2008. In the solvent sector, non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOCs) emissions are not an unwanted by-product (e.g. in combustion). On the contrary, the solvent is a necessity for the product to do what is intended to.\n\nFor NMVOCs, the 2020 ceilings set forth in the Nation Emission Ceilings Directives (NECD) were achieved.\n\nWe promote our inventories via the UNECE Taskforce on Emission Inventories and projections (TFEIP), which can be used as a starting point for national inventories and provides a valuable source of information to help Member States fulfill their main reporting obligation on pollutants under the NECD. TFEIP aims to facilitates cooperation and dialogue amongst Member States. Two dedicated workshops have already been organised for Member States to exchange information on the inventory methodologies specifically for solvents. ESIG continues to support such initiatives.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.esig.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ESIG_technical-paper-solvent-VOC-emisisons-2019_v01_withoutEEA.pdf&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text=&#8221;Download the report&#8221; button_alignment=&#8221;left&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Call To Action Purple&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_button=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; button_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; button_bg_color=&#8221;#412E68&#8243; button_border_width=&#8221;0px&#8221; button_border_radius=&#8221;40px&#8221; button_letter_spacing=&#8221;1px&#8221; button_font=&#8221;|700||on|||||&#8221; button_use_icon=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;13px|40px|13px|40px|true|true&#8221;][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Body : Standard&#8221; module_id=&#8221;sectionBody&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;40%&#8221; width_tablet=&#8221;100%&#8221; width_phone=&#8221;&#8221; width_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; overflow-x=&#8221;hidden&#8221; overflow-y=&#8221;hidden&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;120px||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;60px|50px||50px|false|true&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;|30px||30px|false|true&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;slide&#8221; animation_direction=&#8221;bottom&#8221; animation_intensity_slide=&#8221;20%&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Text : Social Share&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;20px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.9em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;50px||||false|false&#8221; border_width_top=&#8221;1px&#8221; border_color_top=&#8221;#412E68&#8243;]<p>Share this article<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Solvents VOC emissionsIn March, we published the 2019 solvents\u2019 volatile organic compounds (VOC) emission inventory compiled by TNO, Netherlands\u2019 Organisation for Applied Scientific Research.\u00a0 Ethanol VOC emissions previously missing were introduced for the last years.
