ACCIDENTAL EMISSIONS IN THE METALLURGICAL INDUSTRY AND SPECIFICS OF THEIR PROPAGATION

摘要

This article presents results from an analysis of emissions from production equipment in the metallurgical industry. The results show that all such emissions are heterogeneous in composition and are superheated relative to the surrounding medium. Most of the potential sources of hazardous atmospheric emissions in the metallurgical industry are long-acting, which leads to the formation of vapor trails that usually prove to be more dangerous than the gas cloud released initially (the instantaneous emission). The article examines the effects of the temperature and initial content of particulate matter in the emission and the dispersity and density of this solid phase on the propagation of the emission in the atmosphere.
