German term

Immissionsbeitrag

German to English Tech/Engineering Environment & Ecology
Ich würde mich über Hilfe bei einem weiteren Begriff aus dem Gutachten zur Messung der Emissionsbelastung durch eine Spanplattenanlage freuen:

Immissionsmessungen Staub:
Da diese Messungen sehr aufwendig (zeitlich und kostenmäßig) sind, werden i.d.R. Immissionsprognosen anhand der örtlichen und meteorologischen Verhältnisse, der Immissionsvorbelastung in der Umgebung und des **Immissionsbeitrages** der Fabrik erstellt.

contribution to ambient pollution

Der Immissionsbeitrag organischer Stoffe unterschreitet die zulässigen Werte erheblich.
Auch der Bodeneintrag, beispielsweise von Schwermetallen in der Umgebung der Zementwerke, ist nicht umweltrelevant.

The contribution to ambient pollution by organic substances falls significantly below the permissible values. The input of substances, e.g. heavy metals, into the soil in the vicinity of cement plants is of no environmental relevance either.

Immissions- und Strahlenschutz
In dem Themenfeld Immissions- und Strahlenschutz befasst sich das Öko-Institut vor allem mit Auswirkungen von Luftschadstoffen sowie ionisierender und nichtionisierender Strahlung.

Emission and Ambient Pollution Control, Radiation Protection
Our work on ambient pollution control and radiation protection is concerned above all with the impacts of airborne pollutants and both ionizing and non-ionizing radiation.

Now assume that it is possible to identify the marginal effects on health of changes in the ambient levels of pollution caused by shocks to known emitters. In this case, it is possible to identify the precise relationship between known emitters and their contribution to ambient pollution levels. The conditions for identification of the marginal effects of known emitters on ambient pollution levels include that the identification strategy is valid. In other words, the idiosyncratic shock used to identify known emitters' contribution to ambient pollution must not effect unknown emitters. Assuming that this condition is met, the marginal effect of known emitters on ambient levels of pollution can be identified.

emissions quota / carbon credit

This is how I understand *Beitrag* in this context.
Note that carbon credits are also known as emissions permits, assigned amount units and certified emission reduction units.

Immission/emission

emission: Release of a substance from a source, including discharges to the wider environment.
SN discharge, effluent, release.
RT immission.
emission and exposure control: Technical and administrative procedures and specifications applied for the monitoring, reduction or elimination of emissions from a source or exposure to a target.
After WHO, 1989a
emission standard: Quantitative limit on the emission or discharge of a substance from a source, usually expressed in terms of a time-weighted average concentration or a ceiling value.
PS discharge standard.
RT limit value.
immission: Environmental concentration of a pollutant resulting from a combination of emissions and dispersals (often synonymous with exposure).

What is the difference between emissions and immissions?
Emissions are generally defined as the release of substances or energy from a source into the environment. The Federal Immission Control Act defines emissions as air pollution, noise or odour originating from an installation. Immission relates to the effects of emissions on the environment. With regard to air pollution control, this means the effect of air pollutants on plants, animals, human beings and the atmosphere.
