The effect of Incomplete Combustion Outcomes of Fuel Oil on the Internal Environment of Al-Dora Electricity Power Station

Abstract

The aim of this study is to assess and evaluate the impact of air pollution of incomplete combustion outcomes on the workers' health in the Dora power station. The study included the following:- Reviewing the occupational safety records in the station and determining the abnormal states due to the effect of gases resulted from incomplete combustion of fuel oil used to operate the station.

Discussing the above results and analyzing them statistically, it was shown that there was a marked effect on the workers' health and the preventive and cautions procedures were taken by making the required periodic tests and measures and laying a program to decrease the gases (NOx, Sox, COx). (nitrogen oxides seilver dioxides carbon mono oxidesWe recommend the establishment of a control program to reduce the air pollution by NOx, Sox, COx. according to Iraqi national ambint air quality standards.
