Opis:: The issue of environment protection has gained in importance recently in connection with progressive environmental decay, which is caused by a steady economic development and exploitative natural resource management. Energetics is one of the industries, which have a damaging influence on the environment, especially in the matter of air quality. Polish energetics is based on carbon-intensive fuels due to big coal reserves commanded by the country. Coal burning leads to air pollution emission of sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide and particulate matter. Modernizations of power installations are one of the ways towards realization of sustainable development principles. The article is devoted to modernizations implemented in the Heating Plant ‘Piast’ based in Bieruń, Poland. The investments embraced modernizations of the heating boilers and gas-cleaning plants, which constitute the IPPC installations. The author presents research results concerning the influence of conducted modernizations on the amounts of air pollution emissions.
W związku z postępującą degradacją środowiska naturalnego, spowodowaną dynamicznym rozwojem gospodarczym oraz prowadzeniem rabunkowej gospodarki zasobami naturalnymi, kwestie związane z szeroko pojętą ochroną środowiska zyskały na znaczeniu. Energetyka stanowi jeden z najbardziej obciążających środowisko naturalne sektorów przemysłowych, w szczególności zaś w odniesieniu do jakości powietrza. Polski przemysł energetyczny opiera się głównie na paliwach węglowych, co spowodowane jest znaczną ilością posiadanych zasobów węgla. Instalacje energetycznego spalania węgla powodują emisje zanieczyszczeń, takich jak dwutlenek siarki, dwutlenek węgla oraz pyły. Zasady zrównoważonego rozwoju realizowane są m. in. na drodze modernizacji instalacji energetycznych. Niniejszy artykuł opisuje modernizacje instalacji energetycznego spalania węgla przeprowadzone w Zakładzie Ciepłowniczym „Piast” w Bieruniu. Podjęte działania inwestycyjne objęły modernizacje wszystkich kotłów oraz instalacji odpylania i odsiarczania spalin, składających się na instalację IPPC. Przedstawione modernizacje zestawione zostały z wielkościami emitowanych zanieczyszczeń w wybranym okresie badawczym.

Opis:: Polluted air is dangerous to human life and health. Particulate matter, among others PM10, is one of the most harmful substances. In Małopolska and its capital Kraków, the concentrations of harmful substances often exceed the standards set by the World Health Organization. Kraków, thanks to the ban on residential heating with solid fuels, has significantly reduced emissions of pollution, but they remain high in the remaining part of the region, affecting air quality in the capital as well. With the frequent occurrence of high concentrations of pollutants, in addition to the necessary measures aimed at reducing emissions, forecasting of air pollutant concentrations is needed to inform the population if normative concentrations are likely to be exceeded. The FAPPS (Forecasting of Air Pollution Propagation System), based on the AROME/MM5/CALMET/ CALPUFF model ensemble, has been operating in Małopolska since 2014 and has been used to create pollution concentration forecasts for Kraków and Małopolska. In this study, the influence of emissions from point sources on air quality in Małopolska was investigated based on the results of modelling with this system. Modelling results indicate that this influence is negligible. The quality of PM10 forecasts for four versions of the FAPPS system, differing in the meteorological model used – MM5 (Fifth-Generation Penn State/NCAR Mesoscale Model) or WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) and the emission input (2015 emissions from the Małopolska Marshal’s Office, updated with data from the City of Kraków for 2018, or the 2020 emission inventory from the Central Emission Database) was tested. The quality of forecasts was assessed based on the results of measurements at the 22 air pollution monitoring stations for three smog episodes that occurred on 11–17.11.2021, 11–15.12.2021 and 13–18.03.2022. The best results for Kraków were obtained using an approach based on the WRF model and the emission inventory from the Central Emission Database, for which an RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) value of 30.02 µg/m3 was obtained for selected episodes. In the case of Małopolska, the lowest RMSE value (33.58 µg/m3 ) was obtained for the system using the emission inventory obtained from the Marshal’s Office and the WRF model. First tests indicate that changing the meteorological model from MM5 to WRF can lead to improved modelling results, but further research is needed to confirm it.
Zanieczyszczone powietrze jest niebezpieczne dla ludzkiego życia i zdrowia. Pyły zawieszone, wśród nich PM10, to jedne z najbardziej szkodliwych substancji. W Małopolsce i jej stolicy Krakowie stężenia szkodliwych substancji często przekraczają normy ustalone przez Światową Organizację Zdrowia. Kraków dzięki zakazowi ogrzewania mieszkań za pomocą paliw stałych ograniczył w znacznym stopniu emisję zanieczyszczeń, jednakże emisja w pozostałej części regionu jest wysoka, wpływając na jakość powietrza także w jej stolicy. W sytuacji częstego występowania wysokich stężeń zanieczyszczeń, oprócz koniecznych działań ograniczających emisje, potrzebne jest też prognozowanie wysokości stężeń zanieczyszczeń powietrza, aby informować ludność o możliwości wystąpienia przekroczeń poziomu stężeń normatywnych. W Małopolsce od 2014 r. działa system FAPPS (Forecasting of Air Pollution Propagation System) oparty o zespół modeli AROME/MM5/ CALMET/CALPUFF, który jest wykorzystywany do tworzenia prognoz stężeń zanieczyszczeń dla Krakowa i Małopolski. W niniejszej pracy na podstawie wyników modelowania tym systemem zbadano, czy emisja ze źródeł punktowych może mieć znaczący wpływ na poziom stężeń PM10 na terenie Małopolski. Wyniki modelowania wskazują, że ten wpływ jest pomijalny. W pracy testowano także jakość prognoz PM10 dla czterech wersji systemu FAPPS, różniących się zastosowanym modelem meteorologicznym – MM5 (Fifth-Generation Penn State/NCAR Mesoscale Model) lub WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) oraz wsadem emisyjnym (emisja z 2015 r. z małopolskiego urzędu marszałkowskiego, uaktualniona o dane z Urzędu Miasta Krakowa dla 2018 r., albo inwentaryzacja emisji z 2020 r. z Centralnej Bazy Emisji). Jakość prognoz oceniano na podstawie wyników pomiarów na stacjach GIOŚ dla trzech epizodów smogowych, które miały miejsce w dniach 11–17.11.2021 r., 11–15.12.2021 r. i 13–18.03.2022 r. Najlepsze wyniki dla miasta Krakowa uzyskano, stosując podejście oparte na modelu WRF i inwentaryzacji emisji z Centralnej Bazy Emisji, dla której dla wybranych epizodów uzyskano wartość RMSE (Root Mean Square Error – średni błąd kwadratowy) równą 30,022 µg/m3 . W przypadku Małopolski najmniejszą wartość RMSE (33,579 µg/m3 ) uzyskano dla systemu używającego inwentaryzacji emisji uzyskanej z małopolskiego urzędu marszałkowskiego i modelu WRF. Pierwsze testy wskazują, że zmiana modelu meteorologicznego z MM5 na WRF może przynieść poprawę wyników modelowania, jednak konieczne są dalsze badania.

Opis:: W artykule przeanalizowano źródła emisji zanieczyszczeń gazowych i pyłowych w Polsce w ostatnim dziesięcioleciu. Dokonano również oceny redukcji zanieczyszczeń atmosferycznych dla poszczególnych województw naszego kraju. W analizowanym okresie największy udział w emisji tlenku siarki (IV) miała energetyka zawodowa, zaś najmniejszy źródła mobilne. W przypadku tlenków azotu największy udział w ich emisji przypadał na źródła mobilne, zaś najmniejszy na technologie przemysłowe. W latach 2000-2009 największy udział w emisji zanieczyszczeń pyłowych miały źródła stacjonarne, z wyłączeniem energetyki zawodowej i przemysłowej oraz technologii przemysłowych, natomiast najmniejszy – energetyka przemysłowa. W analizowanym dziesięcioleciu stwierdzono 18% spadek emisji przemysłowych zanieczyszczeń gazowych z poziomu 2083,2 tys. ton w roku 2000 do 1703,9 tys. ton w 2010 roku oraz 65% redukcję przemysłowych zanieczyszczeń pyłowych z poziomu 180,5 tys. ton w roku 2000 do 62,5 tys. ton w 2010. W analizowanym okresie najwyższe wartości emisji przemysłowych zanieczyszczeń gazowych (bez CO₂) odnotowano w województwie śląskim, mazowieckim, łódzkim i małopolskim, zaś najniższe w podlaskim i warmińsko-mazurskim. Z kolei najwyższe emisje przemysłowych zanieczyszczeń pyłowych odnotowano w województwie śląskim, zaś najniższe w województwach podlaskim, warmińsko-mazurskim i lubuskim.
The study deals with the sources of emission of gas and dust pollutants in Poland in the last 10 years. Furthermore, the assessment of reduction of atmospheric pollutants in particular voivodeships of our country was performed. During the considered period, the greatest contribution to emission of sulfur (IV) oxide was that of utility power plants, whereas the smallest one was made by mobile sources. In the case of nitrogen oxides, the greatest contribution was made by mobile sources and the smallest one – by industrial technologies. In the years 2000-2009 the greatest contribution in the dust pollutants was made by stationary sources, excluding utility and industrial power plants and industrial technologies whereas the smallest one – by industrial power plants. In the analysed 10-year period the decrease of 18% in emission of industrial gas pollutants was observed (from 2083,2 tones in the year 2000 to 1703,9 tones in the year 2010. Moreover, the decrease of 65% in industrial dust pollutants was recorded (from180.5 tones in the year 2000 to 62,5 tones in the year 2010). In the considered period the highest values of emission of industrial gas pollutants (without CO₂) was observed in the following voivodeships: Śląskie, Mazowieckie, Łódzkie and Małopolskie whereas the lowest – in Podlaskie and Warmińsko-Mazurskie. On the other hand, the highest emission of industrial dust pollutants was recorded in the Śląskie voivodeship whereas the lowest – in the Podlaskie, Warmińsko-Mazurskie and Lubuskie voivodeships.

Opis:: Excessive concentrations of smog toxicants constitute a critical factor influencing the health quality of inhabitants of urban agglomerations. The exposure to elevated concentrations of suspended particulate matter, sulfur dioxide (SO₂), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) and carbon monoxide (CO) is associated with an increase of adverse health effects. Prolonged exposure to air pollution, especially from low emission, may be linked not only to a greater risk of developing cancer of the respiratory system, or cardiovascular morbidity but also to the increased frequency of admissions to hospitals and emergency units as well as medical consultations in surgeries and outpatient clinics. The issue was investigated using the city of Cracow as an example. Attempts were made to find the connection between air pollution in the city of Cracow and the frequency of hospitalization and medical consultations of patients (registered in the city) due to lung and bronchial malignancy and cardiac dysrhythmia taking into account the data from the years 2010-2016 submitted by the Malopolska Regional Branch of the National Health Fund.

Opis:: This article aims to present the state of air quality treated as a measure of the state of quality of local environmental safety, based on the research conducted in the town of Barlinek. This information is necessary to identify the areas that require action to improve air quality (to reduce the concentration of pollutants). The main factors that inspired the author to address this issue are, first of all, the continuous high level of air pollution, despite the actions taken to reduce it; secondly, the lack of precise, clear indicators and measures of such deprivation that applies to a major part of the territory of Poland that would take into account the individual national context; thirdly, the need to identify the main factors that determine this phenomenon in the specific context of Poland. Other factors include the need to consider the requirement for Poland as a member state of the EU to participate in reducing air pollution to an appropriate extent; and, finally, the need to develop and implement integrated 10-year National Energy and Climate Plans (NECP) for the years 2021–2030 with a long-term perspective to the year 2050, as well as long-term renovation strategies to improve the accuracy of eliminating air pollution. The research problem focuses on three issues: presenting the current national and European criteria of ecological safety for air pollution, identifying the indicators and measures that enable the determination of air pollution levels, and presenting the local air pollution level based on the selected example. The research problem discussed in the article is empirical. Analytical/synthetic, qualitative and quantitative methods were used to provide a more in-depth analysis of the problem, and conclusions were drawn.

Opis:: Central Europe is the region with the highest concentration of particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter less than 10 micrometers (PM10) in outdoor air. Weather conditions combined with a high industrialization of regions laying along the Czech Republic and Poland border influence the formation of long smog episodes with PM10 concentrations in the atmosphere at the value of several hundred micrograms in a cubic meter. However, it has been observed that the main source of particulates pollution in the area of the Polish-Czech border between the most populated areas of Ostrava and Katowice is the residential heating fired with solid fuels, participating at the level of not less than 21% in overall air contamination with dusts. It particularly concerns PM10, which is one of the major harmful air pollutants produced by the combustion of solid fuels such as biomass and coal. The measures leading to decrease the dust emission from coal burned individual heat sources include methods to eliminate old-type boilers not permitted by the law, as well as illegal incineration of fuels of bad quality or including admixture of wastes. It requires a new approach for effective identification of such sources, as well as for recognition of pollutants leaving household emitters and evaluation of their share in overall effect on human health. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with miniaturized sensors detecting gaseous and dust particles at the outlet of an individual emitter can compensate the lack of information unable to be obtain using traditional measurements. The use of UAVs to identify specific sources of air pollution is still at an early stage of development and there are not too many scientific publications on this topic so far. Despite it, this technology seems to be usable to create undemanding, low-cost and effective method of air pollution sources assessment. In the current article, some aspects of using UAVs for identification of especially troublesome emission sources located on residential areas are presented, including finding the dominant emission source, determining the optimal distance between a UAV and the emission source or the influence of the UAV altitude, movement and sampling time on measurement result.

Opis:: Nowadays more and more attention is paid to minimizing the costs of air operations. The largest share in the cost of the flight is the cost of consumed fuel. Taking into account the external conditions, having impact on the aircraft, such as wind direction and magnitude when planning the aircraft trajectory it is possible to reduce flight time and thus reduce fuel consumption. An additional advantage is the simultaneous reduction of pollutants in the jet engines exhausts. In the times of pro-ecological trends and concepts (e.g. Clean Sky, Single European Sky, CORSIA) this aspect is of crucial importance. The emission of selected pollutants in the jet engine exhausts (NOx, CO and HC) emitted during the flight of a business jet on the route whose cruise phase was assumed 1000 km long was determined in the article. The aircraft used in the research was Gulfstream GIV, powered by two Rolls Royce TAY 611-C engines, for which a cruising altitude of 10 km and a flight speed of 0.8 Ma were assumed. The thrust necessary for the flight at these cruise parameters was set, and then the engine thrust appropriate for the flight and the corresponding specific fuel consumption were determined. On this basis, based on the available ICAO data, the emission of selected pollutants in tis engines exhausts was determined for windless conditions. Next, the analysis of the impact of wind - its magnitude and direction – on the emission of these pollutants was made. The results of the conducted analyses are presented in diagrams and discussed in the conclusions.

Opis:: Although perceived as the most environmentally friendly means of transport, ships are a significant source of pollution to the environment. The vast majority of emissions in EU sea areas are emitted from cargo ships over 500 GT. About 45% of all emissions come from EU flagged ships and approximately 20% of emissions are emitted within the 12-mile limit of territorial seas. In port cities, ship emissions are in many cases a dominant source of pollution and need to be addressed when considering compliance with legally binding air quality objectives. Moreover, emissions from ships travel over hundreds of kilometres and can thus contribute to air quality problems on land even if they are emitted at sea. This is particularly relevant for the deposition of sulphur and nitrogen compounds, which cause acidification of natural ecosystems and threaten biodiversity through excessive nitrogen inputs. Emission of toxic compounds in marine engines exhausts is limited by international legal provisions, namely MARPOL convention, which in Annex VI sets limits to SOx and NOx emissions and designates special areas where the limits are stringent. To comply with the provisions, marine vessels need to be equipped with installations reducing emissions to permissible levels or turn to alternative fuels. The paper presents evaluation of impact of those having been in force for the last decade limitations as well as of applied new technological solutions on improvement of air quality. The analysis was conducted for the Baltic Sea, based on available data on ship traffic in the area and emission factors.

Opis:: The paper addresses the problem of real-time emission control in a given set of air pollution sources. The approach applied utilizes the optimal control technique for distributed parameter systems. A set of pointwise emission sources with a predefined location and emission characteristics is considered as the controlled object. The problem is formulated as on-line minimization of an environmental cost function, by the respective modification of emission level in the controlled sources, according to the changing meteorological conditions (e.g. wind direction and velocity). Dispersion of atmospheric pollution is governed by a multi-layer, dynamic model of SOχ transport, which is the main forecasting tool used in the optimization algorithm. The objective function includes the environmental damage related to air quality as well as the cost of the controlling action. The environmental cost index depends on the current level of SOχ concentration and on the sensitivity of the area to this type of air pollution. The adjoint variable; related to the main transport equation of the forecasting model, is applied to calculate the gradient of the objective function in the main optimization procedure. The test computations have been performed for a set of major power plants in the industrial region of Upper Silesia (Poland).

Opis:: Air pollution is a global problem. In Europe, ambient air quality remains poor in many areas, particularly in urban ones. Air pollutants have a significantly adverse effect on human health and ecosystems. They are the main cause of many serious illnesses and thus contribute to increased mortality. This paper analyzes the air pollutant emissions in the last four years (2018–2021) in the Upper Silesian Region, which has one of the worst air qualities in Poland and in Europe in general, and the emissions in the Lublin Region in eastern Poland, which is considered as a clean region. In each of the above-mentioned regions, the areas with the highest air pollutant emissions were specified i.e. the Upper Silesian Agglomeration and the Lublin Agglomeration. The emission data for the following pollutants: particulate matter (PM10, PM2.5), benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), sulfur oxides (SOx) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) have been compared. The obtained results were also compared with the estimated average emissions in Poland. It was indicated that in both agglomerations the exposure to air pollutants was on similar levels, which were several times higher than in the remaining parts of the considered regions and the average values for Poland in general. In the Silesian Agglomeration, the exposure to PM10 was over 5 times higher than the average national exposure. The exposure to PM2.5 was almost 6 times higher, the exposure to BaP was about 5 times higher, while the exposure to SOx and NOx was 16 and 10 times higher than the national average, respectively. This is reflected in the increased number of premature deaths and the number of years of life lost due to the exposure to air pollution. Therefore, the actions aimed at limiting air pollutant emissions are urgent in the above-indicated areas.

Opis:: Increasing the use of geothermal energy may be one of the tools bringing us closer to achieving the European Commission’s objective of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 55% by 2030. Air quality improvement plays a strategic role in achieving sustainable energy development. Both European and national legislation in this field is particularly comprehensive and effective, establishing rules for monitoring and preventing air pollution in order to avoid adverse effects on human health and the environment. Unfortunately, the effective air pollutions monitoring network currently in place in Poland, with 156 monitoring stations, mainly concerns agglomerations and cities with over 100,000 inhabitants. The lack of information on the state of pollution in smaller towns is a significant limitation in terms of research aimed at assessing the effects of corrective measures taken, such as the possible transformation of district heating systems based on RES, including the use of deep geothermal energy. This paper proposes some solutions which allow the effective estimation of air conditions in locations not covered by environmental monitoring, in the context of the potential to develop geothermal resources in the rich geothermal province of Central Poland.

Opis:: The paper presents the main natural and anthropogenic sources of sulfur compounds, the proportion of these compounds in natural fuels and their emission to the aerosphere. Particular attention was paid to conditions of photochemical and catalytic oxidation in the air, as well as the behavior of sulfur compounds in the aerosphere. The transformations of sulfur compounds and their reactions with other compounds or elements contribute to air pollution, including the formation of tropospheric ozone and acid rains.
Praca zawiera opis głównych, naturalnych i antropogenicznych źródeł związków siarki, zawartości takich związków w paliwach naturalnych i emisji atmosferycznych pochodzących ze spalania tych paliw. Szczególną uwagę skierowano na warunki fotochemicznego i katalizowanego utleniania siarki w powietrzu oraz zachowanie się związków siarki w atmosferze. Przemiany chemiczne związków siarki oraz ich reakcje z innymi związkami lub pierwiastkami powodują zwiększone zanieczyszczenie powietrza, łącznie z takimi zjawiskami jak tworzenie się ozonu w troposferze oraz powstawanie kwaśnych deszczy.

Opis:: Vehicle exhaust emissions depend on multiple factors, such as the emission norm, driving parameters (speed, acceleration) or the technical condition of the vehicle. These driving parameters may often depend on the condition of the road infrastructure and other factors influencing road conditions. The article attempted to assess the emissivity during acceleration of a vehicle powered by a compression ignition engine. Mapping the actual values is possible with the use of exhaust emission measurement equipment that operates under the actual operating conditions of a vehicle. Recently, an increase in the use of simulation methods in research of this type has been observed. The authors decided to check the suitability of using road traffic simulation software to estimate the $CO_2$ emissions during vehicle acceleration. The obtained results are promising, because in terms of the emissions of the analyzed exhaust gas component, the simulation results differed from the results obtained during measurements with the use of Portable Emissions Measurement System (PEMS) equipment by less than ±20%.

Opis:: The automotive industry is one of the fastest developing branches in the world. From year to year on the roads appear more and more cars. In the modern vehicles, better and more efficient technologies reducing exhaust emission are applied. However, the cars are still the leading source of air pollution, especially in towns and cities. Car exhaust gases have adverse effect on the human health, because they form so-called “low emission”. It means that they are released into the troposphere at the people living height. As a result, people are exposed to the direct and long-lasting contact with the fumes. Therefore, precise assessment is very important to the vehicles’ impact on the quality of the atmospheric air. The review of the evaluation methods of the impact of vehicles on the air quality was presented in the paper, with special regard to the mathematical dispersion modelling of the exhaust gases. In particular, NOx emission by sector in Poland, changing NOx emissions from road transport in Poland in the years 2000-2009 with regard to the change in the number of cars, vertical cross-section of a typical symmetric urban street canyon are presented in the paper.
