Abstract: Considering the fact that the exposure to ambient air pollution has been associated with a series of adverse health effects, it is important to predict the industrial air pollution in the populated areas. An easy and an inexpensive estimation can be performed through atmospheric dispersion modelling. This paper present a case study carry out at two pollution sources located near to an airport. Measurements at source and in the atmosphere were performed. The dispersion estimation was realized on specialized software using for input measured data for emission and meteorological data. The paper presents a short overview regarding adverse effects of different air pollutants (NOx, CO, SO2, THC, PM and O3) on human health, which have been well studied worldwide. The work performed in this article aims to quantify the contribution of various pollution sources (incinerator and thermal power station), to the local air pollution from an airport area. In order to evaluate whe!
n the functioning of the sources will be considered dangerous for populations we elaborate the worst scenario regarding the CO, NOx, SO2, which can be applied by the authorities from both pollution sources. At the end of the paper conclusions and future plans will be presented.
