The impact of selected dumps after mining and metallurgical activities on the air pollution situation

Abstract

The paper studies the possible influence of selected post-mining and air pollution on metallurgicaldumps at czech republic and polish sites on air pollution load in the region. The content of PAHs and heavy metals were determined in dust samples taken from surface dumps SZOTKÓWKA I "of KWK" JAS-MOS and ČSM. The obtained data were used for modeling pollution load around hald using models SYMOS'97. On the basis of the models was assessed the effect of hunger on both air pollution situation around in terms of PAHs, heavy metals and PM10.
