nowadays, air pollution is one of the main challenges worldwide. there have been significant improvements in air quality dispersion modelling. aermod is one of these models which is based upon the gaussian model. however, aermod has some limitations in terms of data input and output. therefore improving this model as well as developing new models adopted to our country is required to be address...
Meteorological conditions, odor emissions, and ambient odor levels at a four-barn, swine finishing facility in Iowa were measured in the summer and fall of 2004. This paper compares ambient odor levels measured using a Nasal Ranger® compared to those predicted by AERMOD, a relatively new air dispersion model. Scaling factors needed to adjust predicted odor levels to those observed ranged from 1...
Abstract: Within the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) a Standard Practice (Z6849Z ) is being developed to provide an objective statistical procedure for comparing air quality simulation modeling results with tracer field data. The practice is limited to steady-state local-scale transport from isolated point sources in simple terrain. Evaluation data having similar external cond...
Air quality model (AQM) is an essential tool for management of air quality in near field region of an industrial complex. Model validation study using site specific input data can boost the consistency on accuracy of model’s performance for air quality management. This study describes the validation of CALPUFF and AERMOD for assessment of NOx concentrations in near field region of a steel indus...
AERMOD was used to model the air dispersion of point and major line emissions of PM2.5 in Halifax and Pictou, NOX in Halifax and SO2 in Halifax, Sydney and Port Hawkesbury, Nova Scotia, Canada. Emission inventory data for 2004 were used in simulations within four, 50 km x 50 km, domains over annual, monthly and 1–hour averaging periods. Annual averaged surface concentration maps are reported...
introductionair pollution is the introduction of particulates, biological molecules, or other harmful materials into the earth's atmosphere, possibly causing disease, death to humans, damage to other living organisms such as food crops, or the natural or built environment. the atmosphere is a complex natural gaseous system that is essential to support life on planet earth. stratospheric oz...
BACKGROUND Little is known about the respiratory effects of short-term exposures to petroleum refinery emissions in young children. This study is an extension of an ecologic study that found an increased rate of hospitalizations for respiratory conditions among children living near petroleum refineries in Montreal (Canada). METHODS We used a time-stratified case-crossover design to assess the...
Qualitatively and quantitatively, we have demonstrated that airborne polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) concentrations in the air surrounding New Bedford Harbor (NBH) are caused by its water PCB emissions. We measured airborne PCBs at 18 homes and businesses near NBH in 2015, with values ranging from 0.4 to 38 ng m-3, with a very strong Aroclor 1242/1016 signal that is most pronounced closest to th...
BACKGROUND Airports represent a complex source type of increasing importance contributing to air toxics risks. Comprehensive atmospheric dispersion models are beyond the scope of many applications, so it would be valuable to rapidly but accurately characterize the risk-relevant exposure implications of emissions at an airport. METHODS In this study, we apply a high resolution atmospheric disp...
In the western United States where dairy wastewaters are commonly land applied, there are concerns over individuals being exposed to airborne pathogens. In response, a quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) was performed to estimate infectious risks after inhalation exposure of pathogens aerosolized during center pivot irrigation of diluted dairy wastewaters. The dispersion of pathogens ...
