Short description
In this sub-category of 2.G(b) - Other product use: Tobacco Germany reports NOₓ, NH₃, NMVOC, TSP, PM₁₀, PM2.5, Cd, Co, Cu, Ni, Zn, Benzo(a)pyrene (B[a]P), Benzo(b)fluoranthene (B[b]F), Benzo(k)fluoranthene (B[k]F), Indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene (I[1,2,3-c,d]P), PAH 1-4 and PCDD/F emissions from the smoking of cigarettes and cigars.

Method
Activity data: Statistical data from the tax registration of sold tobacco1), cigarettes and cigars are used as activity data.
Emission factors: For the emission factors, a study was made and published in October 2016 “Entwicklung von Methoden zur Berechnung von Emissionen von Luftschadstoffen aus der Verwendung von Holzkohle, Tabak, Feuerwerk und Kerzen sowie aus dem Entfachen von Brauchtumsfeuern” from Nicola Toenges-Schuller et al., AVISO GmbH, for the Umweltbundesamt Germany. Based on this study, most of the EFs are an average value from different studys.

Recalculations
So far for the activity data the production, import and export of cigarettes, cigars and tobacco products was used for the calculation. But because of double counting of tobacco amounts the activity data were overestimated. As new data source for the activity data the
