Ambient air quality in Abu Dhabi. 2011 annual report. NILU OR

El-Araby, T.

This Annual Report has been based on data from ten air quality monitoring stations operated in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi during 2011. The data have been ¿cleaned¿ and prepared as a basis for the statistics presented in this report. Air pollution in Abu Dhabi is dominated by suspended particles in the air. One of the main sources is linked to dust from the desert areas and to the occurrence of sand storms. Air Quality limit values for PM10 were exceeded at all monitoring sites in Abu Dhabi in 2011.
Limit values for 8-hour average ozone concentrations were also exceeded at all stations. Limit values for SO2, NO2 and CO were not exceeded in Abu Dhabi Emirate during 2011.

Measurement of air quality in exhibition and storage rooms at Wawel Royal Castle, Krakow, Poland. NILU OR

Dahlin, E.; Grøntoft, T.

Rapporten presenterer resultater fra målinger av forurensning og vurdering av bevaringsforholdene i et ustillingsrom og et magasin for historiske silkebannere tilhørende den kongelige borgen Wawel i Krakow, Polen. I tillegg presenteres det forslag til retningslinjer for design av en best mulig løsning for nye utstillingsmontre for presentasjon av samlingen med silke bannere.

Haugsbakk, I.; Tønnesen, D.

Pipehøydeberegninger er utført for utslipp fra et metallgjenvinningsanlegg for å beregne nødvendig pipehøyde for å unngå røyknedslag på passerende vei. Minste pipehøyde er beregnet til 28 meter over bakkenivå med de opplysninger som er presentert i denne rapporten.

Air quality impact assessment, Kinyerezi, Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania. NILU OR

Sivertsen, B.; Castell-Balaguer, N.

Concentrations of air pollutants from the 150MW Jacobsen Electro power plant planned for the Kinyerezi area near Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania has been estimated using two different dispersion models. The estimated annual average contribution to the ground level concentrations of NO2, SO2 , PM and CO is negligible compared to international and national standards. Only the highest one hour average concentrations may be of some concern.
The estimated absolute maximum hourly ground level concentrations of NO2 from the 150 MW gas fired power plant was found within about 2 to 3 km from the power plant. The maximum ground level concentration might reach 11 µg/m3 during very special meteorological conditions and wind from west.
Contributions to the ground level NO2 concentrations from the 150 MW power plant operated with Jet A1 liquid fuel is somewhat higher. It, however, never seems to exceed 32 µg/m3 (NOx as NO2) as a one hour average maximum concentration.
Over the city of Dar Es Salaam, about 15 km east of the plant site, the two plants will contribute during maximum conditions to about 12 to 20 µg/m3 NO2 .
The green house gas (GHG as CO2 equivalents) emissions will be less than 1 % of the present national emissions of GHG in Tanzania.
