Abstract

Environmental pollution by persistent organic pollutants is an acute problem our days. The article is devoted to the development of information and methodological base for the assessment of unintentional emissions of pentachlorobenzene (PeCB), which was included in Annex C of the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants in 2009. Based on the analysis of scientific research on emissions of chlorobenzenes, emission factors for the main source categories were developed: waste incineration, metal production and cement production. Using the developed emission factors, the first assessment of the of unintentional PeCB emissions was made for Belarus. It is shown that the sources of unintentional emissions of PeCB in Belarus include waste incineration, cement and metal production. According to the assessment unintentional emissions of PeCB in 2020 were 11.43 kg.
