The wind-frequency allocation method on discharge loading of function zones

J Air Waste Manag Assoc. 2002 Jun;52(6):714-8. doi: 10.1080/10473289.2002.10470810.

Abstract

This paper introduces a new allocation method on discharge loading of each function zone in a total emission control region. The wind frequency, the position of each district, and the pollutant's influence area were taken into account in this new method. The concept of "average downwind distance" was brought forward in this paper. The method here is more reasonable than the original method of area distribution, which was proposed by the "A-value" method in regulation of total emissions in China, by means of the simulation of annual average concentration in the total emission control region.
