Air quality-------- degree of purity of the air to which people and natural resources are exposed at any given moment.

Definitions : Air (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act, 1981 “Air pollutant" means any solid, liquid or gaseous substance 2[(including noise)] present in the atmosphere in such concentration as may be or tend to be injurious to human beings or other living creatures or plants or property or environment;

“Air pollution" means the presence in the atmosphere of any air pollutant

Primary air pollutants = chemicals that enter directly into the atmosphere. E.g carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, particulate matter, hydrocarbons

Secondary air pollutants = chemicals that form from other already present in the atmosphere. E.g ozone, sulfurous acid, PAN

Emission Inventory

“Is a comprehensive listing of the sources of air pollution and an estimate of their emissions within a specific geographic area for a specific time interval.”

Inventories can be used to:

•Identify sources of pollution

•Identify pollutants of concern

•Amount, distribution, trends

•Identify and track control strategies

•Input to air quality modeling

Emission Inventory

Steps: - Identify sources of pollution - Measure/ estimate pollutant release from single unit - Extrapolate to expected no. of sources of same type

Air Quality ManagementAir Quality Management

Pollutant from 1 car of type A (gm/km or gm/lt fuel) x Avg distance travelled (or lts of fuel consumed)

X No of cars of type A in given area

= Total emissions from car type A in given region/ street

STATISTICAL MODELS

Statistical models are based on the time series (or any other trend) analysis of meteorological, emission and air quality data. These models are useful for real time analysis and short term forecasting.

Eg. Air Quality Monitoring and Modeling for Coimbatore City - P.Meenakshi and R.Elangovan (CIT)

• Use of "least squares" method to analyse how a single dependent variable is affected by the values of one or more independent variables.

- The monitored data in Coimbatore City are analyzed by multi regression :

SPM= -82.0703 T - 80.5704 P - 0.76381 WD - 2.03456 WV + 64531.68; R = 0.5

SO2= 2.397 T - 1.1481 P + 0.016 WD + 1.173 WV + 831.5413; R = 0.2

NOx= 5.728 T + 3.2582 P - 0.0636 WD + 2.1923 WD + 2.192 WV - 2601.85; R=0.36

Where, T- temperature, P - pressure, WD - wind direction and WV - wind velocity.

RECEPTOR MODELSRECEPTOR MODELS

Receptor Models use the chemical & physical characteristics of measured concentrations of pollutants at source as well as receptor to identify the presence and contribution of the source to the pollutant level at receptor. e.g Chemical Mass Balance Equation

Ci = Fi1S1 + Fi2 S2 + …. FiJ SJ

Ci : Concentration of ith species Fij : Fraction of species i from source j Sj : Sources contribution from sources 1 – J = Dj * Ej

Ej = Emission rate

Dj = 0 T

d [u(t),s(t),x] dt

u = wind velocity s = stability parameter x = distance of source from receptor

PLUME RISEPLUME RISE

• Initial vertical dispersion of the plume emitted from stack due to momentum (exhaust velocity) and buoyancy (higher temperature than surroundings.Briggs Buoyancy Flux parameter : Fb

Fb = v2*r2*g*(Ts-Ta)/Ts v = velocity at exit, r = radius

Ta = air temp, Ts = stack temp

Distance to final plume rise xf = 49(Fb)5/8 for Fb >= 55

119(Fb)2/5 for Fb < 55

Plume rise – unstable/ neutral conditions :

▲h = (1.6 * (Fb)1/3 * (xf)2/3)/u

Plume rise – stable conditions :

▲h = 2.4*( (Fb / us)1/3 ) s = stability parameter (g/Ta) (/z)

Effective stack height : Ht = hs + ▲h

• Frame of reference follows the air mass/ particle• Advection not computed separately as against Eulerian

c(r,t) = conc. At locus r at time tS(r’,t’) source term (g/m3s)p = probability density function that parcel moves from r’,t’ to r,t (for any r’ & t>t’ p<=1) (solved statistically e.g Monte Carlo)Chemistry/ dry/wet removal handled by change in mass at each step: m (t+Δt) = m (t) exp(-Δt/R) , R: rate of reaction/dry/wet deposition- Preferred method for particle tracking- Puff simulation by simulation at centre of mass of puff

Pune Air Quality Modeling – Scenario Analysis

- Slum Fuel Use – SLUM 2010/ 2015

- Traditionally : biofuels kerosene LPG

-As per AQM Cell survey, faster shift from biofuel to LPG

Expected ratio 50% LPG; 35% kerosene; 15% biofuel

- Increase in slum population – 6% / yr (AQM Cell)
