AB  - The health effects attributed to exposure to ambient PM2.5 concentrations
above 10 μg/m3
by using the AirQ+ modeling software were assessed. The
hourly concentrations of PM2.5 were collected from 13 air pollution
monitoring stations in the Belgrade district during Jun and July 2021.,
which were further used as input data for the AirQ+
software. The average
concentration of PM2.5 for two-month monitoring from all sampling sites in
the city was 14.8 μg/m3
, the maximum daily concentration was 55.7 μg/m3
,
while the maximum concentration per hour was 365 μg/m3
. The spatial
distribution of concentrations was mapped using geostatistical interpolation,
revealing hotspots within the city centre and industrial area of the district.
The burden of disease, such as stroke, ischemic heart disease (IHD), chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer (LC), due to the
ambient PM2.5 pollution was evaluated according to the WHO methodology
for health risk assessment of air pollution. The model used for this
assessment is based on the attributable proportion defined as the section of
the health effect related to exposure to air pollution in an at-risk population.
The estimated attributable proportion was 19.4% for stroke, 27.2% for IHD,
15.3% for COPD and 9.0% for LC. The estimated number of attributable
cases per 100,000 population at risk, due to PM2.5 air pollution, for stroke,
IHD, COPD, and LC, was 28, 34, 15, and 8, respectively.

AB  - A significant part of the population in Serbia relies on central heating systems during
the winter months, with around fifty heating plants in operation across the country.
Common fuels used in these plants primarily include fossil fuels such as fuel oil and
natural gas. Combustion of some of these fuels leads to significant emissions of air
pollutants. This study evaluates the impact on the air quality of the two heating boilers
at the Valjevo city (Serbia) heating plant. Air emissions were measured separately for
two heating boilers in the facility using standard reference methodology. The
AERMOD air dispersion model was used to estimate the dispersion of various
pollutants. A combination of topographical and meteorological data was used to set
up a receptor grid exposed to air pollution within a 10 km radius around the heating
plant. It was found that the resulting distribution and concentration gradient of
pollutant gases and particles were less inclined towards the city centre and instead
spread eastwards into the surrounding villages. The health risk from the fuel oil boiler
was shown to be significantly higher than that caused by the natural gas-fuelled boiler.
Nevertheless, the calculated carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic health risks were
within acceptable limits. However, further research is required to adequately assess
the cumulative health risk generated by other surrounding emitters.

AB  - Designated as the most harmful for health, PM(2.5)aerosol fraction was a subject of our study. It was collected for all four seasons during 2014/15 in the suburban area of Belgrade (Serbia) and analysed for Al, Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Br, As, Ba and Pb elements and for NH4+, NO(3)(-)and SO(4)(2-)ions by particle-induced X-ray emission and ion chromatography techniques, respectively. Obtained concentrations have been treated by a combination of several receptor-oriented models to reveal source contributions to the suburban PM(2.5)at different spatial scales. Applied positive matrix factorization analysis indicated five main groups of emission sources: biomass burning (14.5%), traffic (3.9%), regional combustion/secondary sulphates (28.8%), local combustion/secondary nitrates (29.7%) and soil (5.4%). Local heating units had been pointed out as dominant contributors by long-range transport and ground-wind circulation analyses. Air masses circulating over the Balkan Peninsula denoted regional emissions as responsible for the high concentrations of secondary sulphates. Local and long-range transport analyses combined suggested that the BB and the LC/NO(3)originated from the wider urban area. Several Saharan dust episodes were detected as well. Presented results might be a basis for the development of air pollution mitigation strategies in the continental Balkan area, considered one of the most polluted and under-investigated European regions.

AB  - The possibility of retaining Cs+ and Co2+ bound by immobilization processes in the cement matrix is defined as the subject of its investigation: the cement matrix formulation, the water/ cement ratio, the amount of waste, and the porosity of such a structure. Implementing the standard leaching method by Hespe the possibility of comparing different authors’ results was achieved. Diffusion and semi-empirical model were used to investigate the transport phenomenon in order to predict the leaching level for a long period of time. Leaching of Co2+ and Cs+ ions under dynamic conditions immobilized in the cement matrix dynamic conditions decreases with the increase of the sludge content, regarding porosity increase. The effects of the diffusion and surface washing are equalized, and the contribution ofthe matrix dissolution to the Cs + and Co2+ transport in the cement porous media increases, on average, for one order of magnitude. The semi-empirical model gives a better approximation for Co2+ and Cs+ leaching process for the duration ofthe experiment while both models significantly approximate leaching results in dynamic conditions. © 2019, Vinca Inst Nuclear Sci.
