 In category **5.D.1**, __NMVOC emissions__ from domestic and commercial wastewater handling are reported. The domestic section is covered by wastewaters of municipal origin (large centralised plants; ranging from 1,000 up to >100,000 resident values). The commercial section is covered by industrial and commercial wastewaters, co-treated in municipal wwt-plants. In category **5.D.1**, __NMVOC emissions__ from domestic and commercial wastewater handling are reported.

-According to national experts, dry toilets (including latrines) do not play a role in sewage treatment in Germany because they are not in compliance with the legislation and thus do not constitute a procedure of orderly wastewater disposal. Due to that reason NH<sub>3</sub> emissions can not be estimated and the notation key is set to NA.+According to national experts, dry toilets (including latrines) do not play a role in sewage treatment in Germany because they are not in compliance with the legislation and thus do not constitute a procedure of orderly wastewater disposal.

 § 55 of the German water resources act (german: Wasserhaushaltsgesetz, WHG) demands the assuring of the general wellbeing in order of the wastewater disposal (german: gemeinwohlverträgliche Abwasserentsorgung). To ensure this requirement the water regarding laws of the several federal states of Germany (e.g. § 46 Abs. 1 WG BW; Art. 34 BayWG) obligate to the transfer of wastewater from the citizen to the public authorities or to assigned companies (german: Überlassungspflicht). The details are described in municipal bylaws which for the most cases obligate to the connection to the municipal wastewater infrastructure (german: Anschluss- und Benutzungszwang). Exceptions are possible but most likely realised in form of septic tanks or drainless cesspools. § 55 of the German water resources act (german: Wasserhaushaltsgesetz, WHG) demands the assuring of the general wellbeing in order of the wastewater disposal (german: gemeinwohlverträgliche Abwasserentsorgung).

-Recalculations were necessary, because new statistical data for total volumes of treated municipal wastewater in 2019 were issued by the German statistical agency. Out of that reason changes in inter-/extrapolation between 2017 – 2020 were necessary and listed in the following table. +Recalculations were not necessary.
