Airport de-icing operations

Dear members,
I would very much appreciate if someone would provide me some links where I could find stastics about the number of aircraft which are subject to deicing in a winter season andor in a freezing day.

I found an interesting report:

Preliminary Data Summary

Airport Deicing Operations (EPA), but the author reports a lot of statistics about usage of chemical products. I would be interested to know the number of departure movements affected by deicing operations during freezing days and/or winter seasons.

Many thanks in advance

I can not think of any authority that collates such statistics.

Airlines gnerally contract service providers and, to my knowledge, de-icing is not something that is reported to most airport companies.

Airports where there is mandated central de-icing would give you numbers/volumes against traffic flow but for a regional/global picture I think you have a problem.
