<jats:p>Currently, the complex bottom-up emissions inventories are in rise. Itsdevelopment is essential for both understanding the sources of air pollutionand designing effective air pollution control measures. Anyway, the mainchallenge to get the most reliable emissions evidence is the variety ofcontributing sources, the complexity of the technology mix and the lack ofreliable emission factors. The input data bases are improving constantly, bymore reliable statistics and survey-based data. Our study reveals thestrengths and deficiency of currently published scientific papers on the topicof emission inventory. With that purpose, 40 crucial scientific papers wereselected. We first highlight the period and geographic region, when and wherethe inventories were made for. We then summarize the sector-basedestimates of emissions of different species contained by SNAP sectors inselected inventories. Additionally, the resolution of inventories is analysed.Finally, the last section summarizing common ways of assessing andvalidating inventories and their main purpose. This review shows that there isstill a lot of chance to improve emissions inventories in a way to develop inputdata and emission factors for different technologies and activities or todevelop inventories on fine grids. Those efforts will give us wider knowledgeabout pollution sources and will lead to accepted better air quality policy.</jats:p>
