Specification of Mathematical Model for Cost-effective Control of Acidification and Ground Level Ozone

We should distinguish first between a set I of sources of various types of air pollution, and a set J of areas for which various quality indicators are assessed. Conventionally, the names emitter and receptor are used for elements of such sets. The model definition requires the use of the following indices: • Index i ∈ I corresponds to emitters. The numbers of elements in I corresponds to a number of countries (about 40). • Index is ∈ Si corresponds to a sector that emits either NOx or VOC or a linear combination of them; Si is a set of sectors in the i-th country. Sets Si may have up to 5 elements. • Index j ∈ J corresponds to receptors. The numbers of elements in J corresponds to numbers of grids (about 600). • Index l ∈ L corresponds to a combination of ozone thresholds and a year. The set L may have up to 6 elements. • Index m ∈ M corresponds to a set of receptors for which balancing of violations and surplusses of targets is defined.
