 +For the mercury (Hg) losses from the Chlor-alkali industry, Germany used the yearly published data from OSPAR [(ODIMS (OSPAR Data & Information Management System); https://odims.ospar.org/en/search/?dataset=chlor_alkali_data)] on the plant specific production capacity for the AD and the plant specific emissions from the chlor-alkali industry. Because of the BAT (best available technique) conclusion for the Chlor-alkali industry, the production based upon the amalgam process has stopped in 2017. Most production sites switched to membrane technology. 
 +However, emissions of Hg are still ocurring, because two production sites still continue to uses the amalgam process for the production of certain alcoholates; not regulated by the BAT conclusions for Chlor-alkali production. Before 2018 these Hg-emissions were reported together with the Hg-emissions from Chlor-alkali production. But the OSPAR convention does not request the Hg-emissions from alcoholate production to be reported, so CEFIC does no longer report these emissions to OSPAR. 
 +As from 2018 PRTR data is used to determine mercury emissions belonging to the alcoholate production. Due to a delay of the 2019 PRTR data the 2018 emission value is used also in 2019 and 2020.

-So far Germany reported NH<sub>3</sub> and TSP emissions from nitric fertilizer production. Germany has decided to not report this category anymore, but to report emissions from the category urea production instead. There are several reasons to do this. First, the category nitric fertilizer production is a country specific category and there is no method described in the EMEP/EEA Guidebook for this. Second, Germany has no data source for the activity data for this category for many years. During the investigation Germany came to the assumption that there is a double counting of TSP emissions from nitric fertilizer production and fertilizer production.  +Besides, Germany reports since submission 2022 the NH<sub>3</sub> and TSP emissions from urea production instead of from nitric fertilizer production based on the Emep/EEA Guidebook method by using statistical data from the federal statistical office .
-Therefore, instead of nitric fertilizer production Germany reports NH<sub>3</sub> emissions from urea production based on the Emep/EEA Guidebook method, using statistical data from the federal statistical office since the submission 2022, which will be available in future too. With this step Germany has improved the quality of the reporting of the fertilizer porduction in Germany. +

-For the mercury losses from the Chlor-alkali industry, because of the BAT conclusion for the Chlor-alkali industry the production has stopped in 2017. However, emissions of Hg are still ocurring, because two plants are still producing alcoholates and dithionite and were so far reported by CEFIC to OSPAR based on BAT regulation for Chlor-alkali production. Since the OSPAR convention does not request to report the Hg-emissions from dithionite and alcoholate production, CEFIC no longer reports these emissions to OSPAR.  +There are no planned improvements.
