Air Quality
As a specialist consultancy we aim to provide robust
practical advice to our clients to ensure that their projects take full
account of their environmental responsibilities, meet all regulatory
requirements and stand up to public scrutiny. We have permanent licences for dispersion models (ADMS, AERMOD and ISC/iRAP) and extensive
experience in their use and interpretation. The Airshed can also use
advanced CFD fluid flow models to predict flow and dispersion e.g. in
complex terrain, building wakes or street canyons, where conventional
dispersion models may be less reliable (See Guidance for more details). Our
project experience includes:
Air quality impact assessments from road transport throughout the UK and
Ireland including London, Birmingham, Dublin, Belfast and Edinburgh
Dust deposition and PM10 assessment for
mines, quarries and ports
Air quality predictions from lead works, combustion plant and incinerators,
including USEPA HHRAP
Air quality impact assessments for biomass
projects and incineration processes including poultry litter, meat and bone
meal, MSW and other feedstocks
Odour assessments for animal rendering
plants, waste management facilities, wastewater treatment works, fishmeal
plants , restaurants
Detailed air quality impact assessments in
air quality management areas for road traffic and industry
Expert witness at public inquiry
