AbstractThe study deals with the hygienic assessment of ambient air pollution in the tobacco plant and highway areas. Due to the fact that the emissions of both sources contain the same substances having odor, it is very difficult to define the role of each source in ambient air pollution. To differentiate the contribution of the emissions of the enterprise and motor transport to ambient air pollution, the authors compared the calculations of dispersion and the results of full-scale investigations and made an organoleptic assessment. Analysis showed that after industry modernization, the role of a plant in ambient air pollution reduced as the concentrations of tobacco dust, a specific pollutant characteristic only of the enterprise, became lower to the levels below the calculated ones. The concentrations of the pollutants that were common to each source of pollution were decreased, but insignificantly, and exceeded the calculations of dispersion, which suggests the prevailing role of motor transport in ambient air pollution of this area.
