# Cement and steel production. IMAGE-TIMER includes detailed demand models for these commodities (Component [[Energy supply and demand]]). Similar to those from energy use, emissions are calculated by multiplying the activity levels to exogenously set emission factors.

# Other industrial activities. Activity levels are formulated as a regional function of industry value added, and include copper production and production of solvents. Emissions are also calculated by multiplying the activity levels by the emission factors.

# For halogenated gases, the approach used was developed by Harnisch et al. ([[Harnisch et al., 2009|2009]]), which derived relationships with income for the main uses of halogenated gases (HFCs, PFCs, SF6). In the actual use of the model, slightly updated parameters are used to better represent the projections as presented by Velders et al. ([[Velders et al., 2009|2009]]). The marginal abatement cost curve per gas still follows the methodology described by Harnisch et al. ([[Harnisch et al., 2009|2009]]).
