NCASI Five-Year Emissions Survey
NCASI has conducted an industry-wide survey at five-year intervals, since 1980, to evaluate trends in US pulp and paper mill SO2 and NOx emissions. The five-year survey has included total filterable PM emissions since 2005. Results from the most recent survey conducted in 2010 suggest total even though paper production…
Learn MoreEmissions Databases – Pulp & Paper
NCASI maintains comprehensive air emissions databases for air toxics and criteria pollutants (SO2, NOx, CO, particulate matter, and total VOCs) for pulp and paper mill sources. These databases incorporate data from emission studies carried out to inform the MACT rulemakings and other subsequent NCASI/industry testing. The air toxics emissions database…

This white paper provides an approach for estimating the site-specific F factor for black liquor solids burned in a kraft recovery furnace. A detailed example calculation is provided. In addition, results of this approach are presented for several example facilities.
Learn MoreAir Emissions Database – Wood Products
NCASI maintains electronic databases of air emissions test results for both pulp and paper mill sources and for wood products plant sources. The database for pulp and paper sources was expanded this year to include criteria air pollutants (SO2, NOx, CO, particulate matter, and total VOCs). The wood products database also includes both 'air toxics’ and criteria air pollutants.
