One of the sources of pollution in the Hunedoara is the emisile of particulate on the chimney of CET Mintia and another source is ash resulting from the technological process stored in the cinder and ash deposits. The main purpose of this work is to identify areas affected by pollution produced by CET Mintia through the study of dispersion of atmospheric gases emitted by burning solid fuels and ash particles involved in dross and ash deposits. The main pollutants emitted the chimney are sulphur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, carbon dioxide and particles of very fine ash. Deposits of dross and ash poses a major risk of radioactive pollution because of the high levels of radioactive elements.
