Emission and dispersion of gaseous pollution from exhaust shafts of copper mine
Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 10
Abstract
The primary objective of the study was to determine the volumes of emission and dispersion of gaseous pollution from 3 exhaust shafts of a copper mine P-VII, SW-3 and SG-2. To calculate the volumes of emission and dispersion of SO2, NO2 and CO the KOMIN and RWW computer programs were applied. The conducted analysis of the calculations and computer simulation showed that the extent of the impact of emisson on the rural residential area situated in the nearest vicinity of the shaft site is insignificant. The observed exceedance of reference values occurred on the premises of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. The computer simulation proved that the nature reserve 'Buczyna Jakubowska' situated 1.6 kms north-west of the nearest emitters belonging to the mine is not exposed to above-standard concentrations of SO2, NO2 and CO.<br/><br/>
