ADMS NOx chemistry scheme implemented in AERMOD
A journal article by CERC authors describes the implementation of a NOx chemistry scheme in AERMOD which uses similar reactions and an analogous calculation method to the ADMS GRS chemistry. The new chemistry scheme, ADMSM, shows good performance when compared to measurements from five validation studies. The NO2 predicted by ADMSM has increased consistency with modelled NOx compared to the OLM ...

BREEZE Software releases AERMOD/ISC Version 7.1
BREEZE Software releases its first update to AERMOD/ISC Version 7, first introduced in early 2009. The 7.1 Version includes enhancements requested by current users. We will explore four of these new features. ISCST3 Integration; BREEZE has integrated both the AERMOD and ISCST3 model into the same graphical user interface (GUI). Users can run the standard U.S. EPA models of ISCST3 and ISCPrime. To ...

New CERC Publications in the International Journal of Environment and Pollution
Two papers from CERC authors have recently been published in the International Journal of Environment and Pollution, as part of a special issue from HARMO17. The first paper (Stocker et al. 2017, doi 10.1504/IJEP.2017.10010380) concerns the review of dispersion modelling of agricultural emissions with non-point sources, using the ADMS and AERMOD models to examine dispersion of emissions from ...

Running Latest Version of AERMOD from ADMS 5
ADMS 5 includes a facility to run the main model options of AERMOD from the ADMS 5 interface. Since the release of ADMS 5 SP1 (April 2013) the US-EPA have released two new versions of AERMOD and AERMET: version 13350 (December 2013) – this version can be run from ADMS 5, see helpdesk note 100 for further details on how to update to this version of AERMOD and AERMET, version 14134 (May ...

TOXFLAM online
TOXFLAM is a software code based on an analytical solution to the atmospheric dispersion equation for inert substances that may undergo a first-order chemical or physical decay and have a density that is similar to the air density (Bianconi and Tamponi, 1993). This general analytical solution to the dispersion equation describes releases of any duration in a finite mixing layer. The ...

Can I use NWP met data for dispersion modelling?
CERC has been commissioned to carry out an investigation into the use of Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) met data in atmospheric dispersion modelling. CERC's consultancy and scientific research teams will focus on modelling carried out for planning and permitting under EPR, whilst the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) will target probabilistic accident consequence assessments. The project will ...

New review of odour emissions modelling with model intercomparison
Dispersion modelling plays an important role in the assessment of potential odour annoyance for planned activities and the investigation of complaints related to existing facilities. However, compared to general air pollution modelling there are particular challenges associated with modelling odour dispersion and exposure due to the importance of odour variations over short timescales to the ...

Air Pollutant Emission-Rate Software for Industrial Sources is Now Available
The need for accurate methods of quantifying industrial-source emission rates of methane and other greenhouse gases (GHGs), as well as other air pollutants, has never been greater, both domestically and abroad. Today, Minnich and Scotto, Inc. (www.msiair.net) announces the availability of e-Calc© – an emissions-calculation software package to yield air pollutant emission rates from a ...
