Abstract

The paper presents the results of research work started at RISØ National Laboratory, Denmark and continued at “Petroleum-Gas” University of Ploiesti, Romania regarding application of the real-time episode dispersion model RIMPUFF to the Ploiesti - Prahova industrial area with the motivation to understand and quantify severe air pollution scenarios of ground level air concentrations resulting from the different sources of petro-chemical origin located in the industrial area.
