Influence of a cement industry on the fine and ultrafine particles composition in a rural area.
The cement industry of this work is located in the Fumane valley, in the north of Verona. The environmental impact of the air emissions from the plant was studied using different methods: the characterisation of the raw materials utilised in the production process and of the emissions from the chimney of the clinker kiln; the sampling of the air particles on filter in the region around the plant; the biomonitoring using transplanted mosses; the study of the air pollution dispersion using a model.
