NILU.

One of NILU's main goals is to study the impact of pollution. It is thus very important for the institute to have control of the impact the institute's own activities may have on the environment and to reduce the impact as far as possible.

NILU has for many years been working to reduce the impact. In order to take this one step further, it was decided that the institute should restructure the work according to a relevant environmental standard and to seek certification according to the same standard.

The chosen standard is ISO 14001:2004 (Environmental management systems - Requirements with guidance for use) and NILU achieved certification according to this standard in October 2010.

Air quality impact assessment, Maria Gleta Power Plant, Benin. NILU OR

Sivertsen, B.; Liu, L.; Castell Balaguer, N.

Concentrations of air pollutants from the 50MW Jacobsen Electro power plant in Benin has been estimated using two different dispersion models. SO2 emissions from the power plant operated with heavy fuel oil has proven to be the most critical option compared to national and international limit values. The SO2 concentrations will never exceed more than 37% of the national air quality limit values. For all other options, such as light fuel oil and gas, the concentrations will be less. Also the impact of NOx and PM10 will be relative to the limit values be less than for SO2. The CO2 emissions will represent less than 10 % of the national greenhouse gas emissions in Benin.
