Emissions from construction sites

During the construction phase of a plant or a building a number of machineries are used. These are responsible for the atmospheric emission of several pollutants. In this phase are in fact used cranes, graders, compressors, dozers, scrapers, well drillers and other machinery that emit atmospheric pollutants as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter and others. Moreover, the removal of inert material produces the emission of particulate. The evaluation of the emissions during the construction phase of a production plant is especially important for particulate, even if it is limited to a short period. This estimate is even more relevant in the construction phase of buildings and infrastructures. Enviroware calculates the atmospheric emissions during the construction phase based on the duration of the building phase, the yard extension, the type and number of machineries used, the number of workers. Besides the emissions from the machineries, they are also estimated the emissions from the vehicles of workers, the emissions form resuspension of particulate and the removal of inert materials.
