Abstract

Estimated emissions of gases and particulate matter from Portland cement plant near Khoms city in northwestern Libya by The use of the application program (READY), which was produced by the (United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) application calculates the contaminated  concentration of a number of points (x) and (y) about the source of emission of pollutants circle diameter (20 km), reveal that the gases emissions and dust emissions exceed selected Egypt standard limits. The results highlight the need for improved operational procedures to minimize emissions and avoid any possible adverse environmental effects.
