Because dichloromethane is highly volatile, most environmental releases are into the atmosphere. It is released to the atmosphere during its production, storage and transport, but most (more than 99%) of the atmospheric releases result from industrial and consumer uses. Estimates of annual global emissions of 500 thousand tonnes have been reported for dichloromethane. It has been estimated that 85% of the total amount of dichloromethane produced in the United States is released to the environment, mostly to the atmosphere. Industrial dichloromethane emissions to the atmosphere in the United States fell from about 58 thousand tonnes in 1988 to approximately 25 thousand tonnes in 1995 (United States National Library of Medicine, 1997a). The total emission into the air in western Europe was estimated to be 173 thousand tonnes for 1989 and... [Pg.256]
