Abstract
In the built kitchen, we simulated the combustions of 9 crop residues, 26 wood materials and 5 coals, and measured emission factors of PM and PAHs. Two stoves were used. Because of large differences in fuel properties and burning conditions, the measured EFs varied dramatically, and identified influencing factors only explained the variations partly. In rural area, there are many different fuel/stove combinations in rural China. The burning process and subsequent pollutant emissions varied dramatically from site to site. It is realized that more studies are required, and more important, field studies are preferable since the field measurement can reflect the real fuel burning process and are more reliable. As a result, two field measurement campaigns were conducted in rural Shanxi and Jiangsu provinces.
