Abstract
In this study the impact on air quality of selected fires at waste storage sites in Poland in the last few years was assessed using measurement results derived from the public air quality monitoring (AQM) system, meteorological data, forward trajectory modelling, aerosol optical depth (AOD) data and satellite imagery analysis. The concentrations of selected air pollutants (PM10, PM2.5, SO2, NO2, NOx, CO, and C6H6) were treated as characteristic substances of waste fires. Taking the wind direction into account enabled to assess whether the concentrations increase at particular station and in a given period might be related to the occurrence of the fire in the vicinity of the measurement point or coincidental. In the situations where the wind was blowing from the place of the fire occurrence to the AQM station, the significant concentration peaks of the analysed substances were observed. The study showed that the fumes from large waste fires spread over a long distance, so that the increase in air pollutant concentrations can be recorded in AQM stations located further away from the fire site. In the layer of the atmosphere where the smoke is transported, its influence on the AOD data from satellite observations was also visible.
