Abstract: An important aspect of the pollution refers to the work place air quality, with particular characteristisc and implications depending on the type of activity. Metalurgical industry is among the activities that generate important amount of pollutants boths indoor and outdoor.Not only the quantity of pollutants is important bat also the hazards that are associated to them.
Metals are often found in row materials susch as sulphides and when submited to melting generate sulphide oxides. Processing ore may generate other compounds also present in raw materilas such as arsenic and fluorhides , that are highly toxic. It depends greatly on the type of ore or to be more specific on its composition, since producing one metal generaly means separating it from other components.
In the present paper has been studied the spatial&temporal concentration distributions of the following gaseous pollutants SO2, CO, NO2 as well as that of particulate matter with diameters smaller than 2,5micrometers and between 2,5micrometers ši 10 micrometers, respectivly.Data on concentrations in the work place are used by the specialised department as basis for improving working conditions. Monitoring large working spaces needs a great effort as regards material and human resources so that using data for the mathematical modelling/ estimation of indoor dispersion of noxe is certainly a very usefull, timesaving tool.
