Abstract

Sustainability of air quality standard is the major concern across India. Industrialization and particularly the coal-based thermal power plant are the predominant source of air pollution. These atmospheric pollutants have severe impact on the environment. Different types of air dispersion modeling are the most active tools for the assessment of the extent of pollutants and hence the air quality in different environmental conditions. In the current research, Industrial Source Complex Short-Term 3 (ISCST3) tool has been used for simulation of nonlinear advection–diffusion governing differential equation with appropriate boundary condition for prediction of ground-level concentrations of pollutant emission from a coal-fired power plant in Angul, India. The industrial data are used as input to ISCST3. The incremental maximum Ground-Level Concentrations (GLC) of pollutants, when added to the baseline concentrations, are found to be within the acceptance level as per national ambient air quality standard guidelines.
