- At the beginning of the twentieth century, annual CO2 emissions were around 3 billion tons, while the current levels are 10 times higher now. It is estimated that approximately 22% of the so-called LINEAR emissions are produced by the Transport sector. The vehicles produced today have much lower CO2 emissions, however the number of vehicles on the streets is steadily growing – which in turn spikes up the emissions. Various policies have been put into place to protect the people, and the environment from the harmful impact of the automotive industry. However, the process of identifying the negative emitters such as point, line, and surface emitters is difficult due to the fact that they take place simultaneously. The transport and the spread of pollutant gas are mainly dependent upon the atmospheric phenomena recorded locally. Key factors include atmospheric pressure, wind speed and direction, and the phenomenon of temperature inversion and heat transfer phenomena in the atmosphere to name a few. The factors I have just mentioned are affected by the area’s topography, the concentration of buildings & plants in a given area that affect the oxygen levels in the area. Therefore, there is a need to establish a system for continuous monitoring of air quality with regard to the use of heating systems, operating systems, transportation management and vehicle traffic. This type of system shall consist of a “network & quote; of measuring instruments deployed in various locations within the measured territory. The use of a measuring system will: record pollution levels, pinpoint trouble areas, allow us to forecast the future pollution levels, as record necessary data to forecast the atmospheric conditions. The expert module will allow the use of artificial intelligence in the analysis of gathered data. Paper examines a system that meets the above-mentioned criteria. The system was created by an interdisciplinary research team led by Prof. Dr. Eng. W. Batko of the Academy of Mining and Metallurgy in Krakow, Poland.
