Definition of the contribution of the sources to the quality level of the air of Cartagena using a receptor model based in the chemical mass balance.

摘要

In this work we apply a receptor model in order to do a distribution of the responsibility in the quality of the air in the city of Cartagena (Spain). For this fact we have fitted meteorological situations to three standards simplifying previous ratings.; We have established the sources those apport important rates of pollutants to the aerosol, such as different kinds of industries, soils and traffic. Each one of this has been divided into several items.; It has been also necessary the establishment of an industrial emissions inventory in the city and surroundings.; We have adapted the data from the continuous monitoring net of Cartagena council, and the other data from our own investigation groups, in order to feed the model. The model has run in all the meteorological standards. The conclusions show the relevance of traffic and above all diesel vehicles.
