- Výzkumný ústav pro hnědé uhlí a.s., Most
Evaluation of fresh air quality in the remediated site Lake Most is one part of the complex project "Effects of the hydric reclamation of open cast coal mines on microclimate, air quality, water and soil ecosystems" no TA 1020592. In the framework of this project, there are 8 locations around the Lake Most, in which gaseous pollutants are monitored: SO2, NOx, NH3 and O3, VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds excluding methane), using the passive sampling method of Radiello. In addition, the continuous measurement of O3, SO2, NOx, and CO is carried out on one of the stations. The obtained data are used to monitor pollution and at the same time to compare the two methods of determination. The article summarises the results of the time period 6/2011 to 6/2013. The measurement will continue until the end of 2014.
