POPE model and Data v2.0

The source files and derived datasets of the Persistant Organic Pollutants Emission (POPE) model. 

The POPE model distributes estimated total PFAS emissions in space and time based on several data sets such as the E-PRTR, NACE and US-EPA FRS in combination with socio-economic data as population and GDP complemented by estimates for individual point sources, such as industrial sites and airports, whereby the source activity is dependent on regional changes in production volumes, usage quotas, and recapturing efficiency over time. It includes emissions by industrial production, diffuse emissions through usage and disposal of consumer products, secondary emissions from the reaction of precursors, and emissions by firefighting exercises on airports using Aqueous Film Forming Foams.
