Comparative Study of Poluttant Emissions from the Fossil Fuel Power
Plant and Influence Upon Urban Air Quality in Timisoara

Abstract:

In this article, the authors propose a comparative analysis of air quality in urban area of Timisoara before and after retrofitting of the local power plant, with the goal to identify the level of human discomfort. The air quality analysis was based on on line measurements consisting of legally attested equipment that was set up to monitor fine particulate matter, nitric oxides NO, NO2, carbon monoxide CO, sulphur dioxide SO2, and, as well as wind speed and direction. Emission data collected during 2 years, in 2012 and 2014 before and after retrofitting, referring to maximum 24-hour concentrations and the occurrence of exceedances over the limit values are comparatively analyzed. The relative investigation presents the evolution for the concentration of the most important pollutants involved in the atmospheric pollution process. Finally, in addition to measures already achieved for retrofitting and declared effective by the comparative analysis, one also proposed supplementary pollutants control technologies on coal fired boilers in response to new requirements of air quality, as well state of art for the pollutant emissions. Keywords: urban area, air pollution, district heating
