Assessment of Air Pollution Using Plant Material
نویسندگان
چکیده
Technological procedure of extracting metals is being constantly modernised so that polluting of the basic life resources is reduced. Emissions of waste gases and particulate matter are still present in larger mining-metallurgical complexes. Mining-metallurgical complex Bor (RTB) exploits sulphide copper ores, thus emitting acid sulphur gases and suspended particles with high content of Cu, Zn, Pb, Ni, Cd etc. into the atmosphere. Plants show a direct response to the state of the air.

Lead and zinc production is one of the main predisposing factors of excessive greenhouse gases emissions, air pollution and water consumption. In this paper, the environmental problems of lead and zinc production in Calcimin plant are expressed and life cycle assessment of this plant is assessed. The data regarding the amount of induced global warming and pollution, acidification, and depletion...
متن کاملApplication of AERMOD to local scale diffusion and dispersion modeling of air pollutants from cement factory stacks (Case study: Abyek Cement Factory)
Today, the cement industry is one of the major air polluting industries in the world. Hence, in this study, owing to the importance and role of contaminants from the plant, an appraisal of the emission contributions in addition to other factors have been discussed. There are several reasons behind the importance of modeling air pollutants. First, the assessment of standards for air pollution, a...
