Abstract

Substance flow analysis was applied to analyzing the lead emissions in 2010. It turns out that in 2010, for every 1 kg of lead consumed, 0.48 kg lead is lost into the environment. The emissions in 2010 were estimated to be 1.89×10⁶ t, which were mainly from use (39.20%) and waste management & recycling (33.13%). The accumulative lead in 1960-2010 from the anthropogenic flow was estimated and the results show that the total accumulative lead in this period amounted to 19.54×10⁶ t, which was equivalent to 14.26 kg and 2.04 g/m² at the present population and territory.
