-Since 1990, so the data, NMVOC emissions from use of solvents and solvent-containing products in general have decreased by nearly 38%. The main emissions reductions have been achieved in the years since 1999. This successful reduction has occurred especially as a result of regulatory provisions such as the 31st Ordinance on the execution of the Federal Immissions Control Act (Ordinance on the limitation of emissions of volatile organic compounds due to the use of organic solvents in certain facilities – 31. BImSchV), the 2nd such ordinance (Ordinance on the limitation of emissions of highly volatile halogenated organic compounds – 2. BImSchV) and the TA Luft.+Since 1990, so the data, NMVOC emissions from use of solvents and solvent-containing products in general have decreased by nearly 55%.

-Until 1999, data of the present source categories 2.D.3.e and f were treated as one source group. From 1990 to 1993 only a rough expert estimation was carried out, which since 1994 in a first step and since 2000 in a second step could be improved by a more detailed data collection that enables to follow the development of source group 2.D.3.e.  Since 2000, the share of this source group accounts for about 5-8% of total NMVOC emissions from solvent-based products with slightly increasing numbers  (Figures 1-2). +Until 1999, data of the present source categories 2.D.3.e and f were treated as one source group.

 Only a slight decrease in the overall NMVOC emissions can be observed since 2009, probably related to the financial crisis and a decline in production.  Only a slight decrease in the overall NMVOC emissions can be observed since 2009, probably related to the financial crisis and a decline in production.

 ===== Recalculations ===== ===== Recalculations =====
-There are no recalculations.  
  
 +Routinely, the NMVOC emissions of the last reported year must be actualized in the next reporting cycle as the final data of the foreign trade statistics are regularly only available after the publication of the respective reporting year has been completed. 
 +
 +For the year 2020, this adjustment is postponed to the submission 2024 because for some applications the calculation bases also have to be reviewed for further years and this review could not be completed in time for the 2023 reporting.
