Article Synopsis
- - Landfill operations, particularly Municipal Solid Waste Treatment Plants, are significant sources of greenhouse gases (GHGs) and other air pollutants, necessitating detailed measurements to identify and reduce emissions.
- - A study conducted in Poland measured atmospheric trace gases near a waste processing facility, finding that methane (CH) concentrations varied significantly with proximity to emission sources and showed seasonal spatial patterns.
- - The findings indicated that while high levels of CH and other pollutants were detected near active waste zones, their overall impact on surrounding air quality was considered minimal despite the observed variability in concentrations.
Living in healthy environment should be regarded as a primary human right and not a privilege rendered to chosen ones. For that reason, a national air monitoring grid should be as extensive as possible. Unfortunately, small towns and villages, which are also exposed to air pollution episodes are not commonly covered by monitoring grid.
