Concentrations of particulate matter and arsenic in Bor (Serbia)
چکیده انگلیسی
Measurements of air quality in the territory of Bor (Serbia) were performed at the sampling sites in the urban-industrial, suburban and rural area during the 2003-2008 period. A high level of arsenic (As) concentration in suspended particulate matter (PM) is of a predominantly industrial origin. The major source of pollution is the copper smelter which is situated in the close vicinity of the urban area of Bor. The ambient level of PM and As is influenced by meteorological parameters as well as the remoteness from the copper smelter. Continual exceedances of the annual limit value (LV) for As (6 ng m−3) were recorded at the sampling sites in the urban-industrial and suburban area. Maximum annual As concentrations were recorded at Town Park (46.5 ng m−3) in 2004, Institute (95.4 ng m−3) in 2004 and Jugopetrol (74.5 ng m−3) in 2003. In the past 15 years not a single mean annual As concentration recorded at the sampling sites Town Park, Institute and Jugopetrol has been within the LV. When the average annual and maximum monthly As concentrations are compared, it can be concluded that the level of pollution is higher in the urban-industrial and suburban areas than in the rural area.
