Abstract:The inventories of atmospheric selenium (Se) emissions from coal combustion in China were compiled for the year 2005 utilizing the emission factor method based on provincial coal consumption and average Se concentration in coal. Se emission sources were categorized by economic sectors, fuel types, combustion technologies and pollution control equipments. The Se emissions were 1331.14t, in which Shandong had heaviest emissions (175.90 t), followed by Hebei (111.79t), Henan (105.36t), Jiangsu (97.32t), and Shanxi (84.66t), suggesting east and central China dominance of Se emission. Approximately 43.32% of the Se emissions came from industry sector (576.60t), and 40.85% from thermal power generation (543.82t). Combustion of raw coal was the major emission source, contributing 90.07% of total Se emissions.
