Question 59
ESNAT2 marksNeeds review
An industrial stack emits 100 g/s of CO at an effective height of ‘H’, where the wind speed is 5 m/s. At 3 km distance downwind, the values of dispersion coefficient in y-direction and z-direction are 50 m and 25 m, respectively. The CO concentration at the centerline of the plume at 3 km distance downwind is ______ mg/m
(rounded off to 2 decimal places)? Use Gaussian plume model and value of π = 3.14. Neglect reactions and the ground effect of plume in the calculations.Log in to check the answer
