The purpose of this paper is to try to analyze the various mechanisms and the nature of the possible emitters which can be responsible for the 3 μm cometary emission, in order to derive in each case, the amount of carbon required to account for the observed emission. As a second objective, the authors use these results, together will the relative abundances of parent molecules, to derive the relative elemental abundances of H, C, N and O in comet Halley, and try to compare these numbers with the abundances derived for interstellar dust.
