Key Subjects in Danish:

Abstract:
This assessment provides both an overview of sources of mercury releases in the Russian Federation, and a presentation of a considerable amount of detailed information and data about the flow of mercury in different processes. The assessment includes data on mercury released to air and water, deposited in landfills and waste dumps, as well as estimated total mercury inputs to society (intentional use and unintentional human mobilization), by source categories. The assessment provides the basis for the development of a possible mercury release reduction strategy for the Russian Federation. The data is available for the first time in English.

Abstract in Danish:
Denne redegørelse giver et overblik over kildeudslip af kviksølv i Rusland og giver samtidig viden om strømmen af kviksølv i en række processer. Redegørelsen indeholder data om kviksølvudslip til luft og vand, kviksølv bortskaffet til fyldpladser og affaldsdepoter, samt redegør for mængderne af kviksølv der tilføres samfundet opdelt på forskellige anvendelsesområder (såvel tilsigtede anvendelser som utilsigtet mobilisering af kviksølv som følgestof). Redegørelsen udgør et grundlag for udvikling af en mulig strategi til reduktion af kviksølvudslip fra Rusland. De viste data er tilgængelige for første gang på engelsk.
