Quebec inventory of emissions of the main air contaminants
The inventory of emissions of main air contaminants (PCA) lists anthropogenic emissions of these contaminants into the atmosphere at the level of Quebec beginning in 1990. The Department produces this inventory to highlight the importance and evolution of emissions of air contaminants, which contribute to acid rain, smog, and toxic pollution. This inventory includes: * Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs); * Sulfur Dioxide (SO2); * Carbon Monoxide (CO); * Nitrogen Oxides (NOx); * Fine Particles (PM2.5); * Fine Particles (PM2.5); * Respirable Particles (PM2.5); * Respirable Particles (PM10); * Total Filterable Particles (PM). This dataset shows PCA emissions in Quebec from the most recent inventory, by sector, sub-sector and activity category by year since 1990. This inventory is available on this page: https://www.environnement.gouv.qc.ca/air/inventaire/index.htm.
