Detailed, or semi-detailed, chemical schemes for atmospheric photochemistry have been analysed with the Computational Singular Perturbation method and our results show which Quasi-Steady State Approximations (QSSA) must be enforced to reduce the dimension of the chemical system. A reduction in size of up to 50% has been found possible for the lumped-structure CBM-IV mechanism, and similar reduction have been achieved for more complex chemical mechanisms.
