dc.descriptionThis inventory is made by the Environmental Protection Authority of Ethiopia in collaborations with the Ministry of Mines, Ministry of Water and Energy, Ministry of Construction and Urban Development, Ministry of Industry and Ministry of Health with the finical support of the UNEP Chemicals in the year 2012. This mercury release inventory was made with the use of the "Toolkit for identification and quantification of mercury releases" made available by the United Nations Environment Programme's Chemicals division (UNEP Chemicals). This inventory was developed on the Toolkits Inventory Level 1. The Toolkit is based on mass balances for each mercury release source type. Inventory Level 1 works with pre-determined factors used in the calculation of mercury inputs to society and releases, the so-called default input factors and default output distribution factors. These factors were derived from data on mercury inputs and releases from such mercury source types from available literature and other relevant data sources.
