Abstract

The study shows that when depletion, by deposition, of the pollutant in the environment is taken into account, an increase in the height of release within certain limits, may cause an increase in the ground-level air concentration of the pollutant at a certain distance from the release point. Results are shown of the computations of the concentration of a pollutant (SO 2) as function of atmospheric gustiness conditions, height of release and distance, with and without consideration of the effect of deposition. It appears that the increase in height of stacks for release of pollutants is not a straight forward solution for the decrease of concentration of the pollutant all over the environment and that an optimization study should be made.
