Beschreibung:
<jats:p>Thermal power plants Nikola Tesla ?A? and ?B? are large sources of ash from their ashes/slag deposit sites. Total sizes of ashes/slag depots are 600ha and 382ha, with active cassettes having dimensions ~200ha and ~130ha. Active cassettes of the disposal sites are covered by rather large waste ponds, which sizes varies depending on working condition of sluice system and on meteorological conditions. Modeling of ash lifting was attempted using results from dust lifting research. Relation between sizes of ponds and air dust concentration in the vicinity of ash disposal sites was analyzed. As expected, greater sizes of dried disposal site surfaces in combination with stronger winds give greater dust emission and greater air dust concentration.</jats:p>
