Some topics are of particular concern to many European citizens. One of these

is air quality. This is also one of the areas in which Europe has been mostactive in recent years.

The European Commission has aimed to develop an overall strategy. MemberStates are required to transpose and implement new directives on air qualitywhich set long-term quality objectives. But it is also our direct responsibility

to cope with this problem, changing our day by day behavior.

Like the availability of capital, manpower, or transport infrastructure, thequality of air is likely to become a determining factor in the location ofinvestment and therefore economic growth of a region.

The way in which not only cities, but also companies, organize their transportsystems will become, without any doubt, one of the major priorities of yearsto come.

*Under the new Directive the member State can apply for an extension of up to five years (i.e. maximum up to2015) in a specific zone. Request is subject to assessment by the Commission. . In such cases within the timeextension period the limit value applies at the level of the limit value + maximum margin of tolerance ( 48g/m3 for annual NO2 limit value).**Under the new Directive the Member State was able to apply for an extension until three years after the dateof entry into force of the new Directive (i.e. May 2011) in a specific zone. Request was subject to assessmentby the Commission. In such cases within the time extension period the limit value applies at the level of thelimit value + maximum margin of tolerance (35 days at 75g/m3 for daily PM10 limit value, 48 g/m3 for

annual Pm10 limit value).

Conclusions

An analysis of data recorded by AIRPOINER mobile stations one can conclude:

the NOx concentrations are low, under 40 g/m3 for one hour mean values

one episode with relatively high SO2 concentration occurred in 8 August

the PM10 concentration are low, under 15 g/m3 for daily mean values

the VOC concentrations around 0.30.5 mg/m3 are low but due to Elemir locationthe composition of those imissions should be further investigated, what kind of VOCs

are involved? Knowing that benzene concentration in ambient air should not be morethan 5 g/m3 (0.005 mg/m3)

An analysis of data recorded by UPT mobile stations one can conclude:

there are no limit excedances for any pollutant

the NO/NOx and CO recorded concentrations shows the influence of road traffic andvehicle emissions

SO2 and VOC concentrations also follows the trend of NO/NOx and CO so we canbelieve that they are caused by vehicles and the sulphur content of the fuels used

The PM10 concentrations are very high, close or above the limit.

Conclus ions

For the values recorded at VRSAC Main Buss Station we can draw followingconclusions:

The PM10 concentration is above and/or very close to the EU admissible limit theNO and NO2 concentrations are under the limit but still very high.

The pics in the graph are caused exclusively by the buss traffic in/out of the

station. The buss traffic starts at 5:00 AM and stops ~ 11:00 PM with a buss comingin or out every 5 minutes, and a total of more than 100 inputs and outputs everyday.

CO is under the limit and the variation recorded is following the busses traffic inthe station

VOC concentrations are high and caused by the fuel combustions. The mistprobable cause is the age of the buses engines giving and incomplete fuelcombustion in the cylinders.

Ozone concentrations are high but under the admissible limit

Conclusions

Ozone concentrations are high, but under the admissible limit

NO/NO2/NOx pointed one episodes with high concentrations (14.September), butunder the admissible limit

The PM10 concentration is above and/or very close to the EU admissible limit, under65 g/m3 for daily mean values

SO2 concentrations are high. 14th September is the concentration of SO2 was veryhigh at the 730 g/m3. This ``pic`` was recorded about 11 hours. The highest

concentrations of SO2 on a daily basis is measured by the 340 g/m3.The location where the equipment was placed for monitoring during this period ofmeasurement did not have the best weather conditions for measurement, susceptibleto the wind direction was the opposite direction from where there were measured bythe station, or SO2 concentration was dramatically higher in the city. In this case, theconcentration of SO2 in Krivelj was very high.
