Question
An oil refinery emits 20 g/s of S02 at effective
stack height of 100 m where the wind speed
equals 6 m/s. The horizontal oy and
vertical o, standard deviations in meters at a
distance of 0.9 km downstream
are 30m and 20m, respectively.
What is the ground level SO2 concentration
(microgram/m³) at the centerline of the
plume?
