Simulation of NO2 emission dispersion in Timisoara city, in a certain reference point in relation with a stationary source [articol]

Abstract

Because the nitrogen dioxide has noxious effects to human health and also to the environment, the European and the national laws in environmental field impose strict norms to the large polluters. According to these laws, they are obligated to optimize the plants performances in order to reduce the pollution. The case study presented in this paper describes the simulation of the nitrogen dioxide dispersion phenomenon in Timisoara city atmosphere, with the help of analytical-experimental methods. The objective is to establish the influence of micro-plants an also of the two thermal power stations, that make the thermal energy supply of the population, to nitrogen dioxide pollution level, in down town, into a reference point.
