Abstract
ORDONEZ-SANCHEZ, Yan Carlos; REINOSA-VALLADARES, Mirtha; HERNANDEZ-GARCES, Anel and CANCIANO-FERNANDEZ, Janet. Application of simplified models for dispersion of air pollutants. Case study. Rev Cub Quim [online]. 2018, vol.30, n.1, pp. 90-103. ISSN 2224-5421.
This study aims to perform a comparative analysis of the different models of atmospheric dispersion simplified in type I View mode to be applied to a study case. The study takes into account the norms established by the Cuban Standard NC 1059:2014. The Berlyand interfaces, Web Gauss and SCREEN3 models were used in order to conduct this study case. Maximum concentrations obtained through Level I models showed similarity; meanwhile, the distances to which these values are reached described another behavior. The shorter distances were obtained through Berlyand, which greatly limits the spatial analysis of the dispersion of pollutants. The importance of this work lies in demonstrating that these simulators can result in a significant practice to be used by the industries themselves, in order to evaluate the impact of their emissions from specific sources.
