The dispersion modeling of air pollutants is the best available scientific tool for quantifying the impact of emissions from the use of oil or any other fossil fuels. Anyone interested in or involved with such modeling is invited to visit the website at:

........ www.air-dispersion.com <== click here

to learn about "Fundamentals of Stack Gas Dispersion" ... a very comprehensive reference book on dispersion modeling of continuous, buoyant pollution plumes. The website provides a brief description of the book, peer reviews published in technical journals, the book's complete table of contents, and other information. The website also provides access to information about the AERMOD, SLAB and DEGADIS dispersion models and other BREEZE software used by environmental professionals worldwide.

Topics covered in the book include: classifying atmospheric stability; determining of buoyant pollution plume rise; Gaussian dispersion calculations and modeling; developing windspeed profiles; trapped pollution plumes; fumigated plumes; flare stack plumes; meteorological parameters, and much more. Copies of the book have been purchased in the U.S.A., Canada, Mexico, South America, Europe, Australia, Africa and Asia (in a total of 57 countries), and are available in over 130 libraries worldwide.

Never in a million years would I have thought my Title V Air Permit able to haunt me like this. But, here it is!

I shall have my consultant look at this. We're amazed at how sudden AERMOD replaced ISC.

EnviroEngineer:

The ISC models had a good run in my opinion. The first version was made available in the late 1970's .... about 25 to 26 years ago.
