Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPrediction of Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) Concentration Levels from the Mina Al-Fahal Refinery in Oman Using Artificial Neural NetworksSabah A. Abdul-Wahab, Saleh M. Al-AlawiIn this investigation, two Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models were applied for predicting ground-level sulfur dioxide (SO2) in the Sultanate of Oman in order to provide an early warning advisory for the protection of public health. The objective of the first model (Model I) was to use ANN to predict sulfur dioxide (SO2) levels at certain receptors from the Mina … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,385 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTotal SO2 Emissions from Power Stations and Evaluation of their Impact in Kuwait Using a Gaussian Plume Dispersion ModelA.A. Ramadan, M. Al-Sudairawi, S. Alhajraf, A.R. KhanIn Kuwait, most of the power stations use fuel oil as the prime source of energy. The sulphur content (S%) of the fuel used as well as other factors have a direct impact on the ground level concentration of sulphur dioxide (SO2) released by power stations into the atmosphere. The SO2 ground level concentration has to meet the environmental standards … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2008 · 6,850 accessesView PDFCite
