Air Dispersion Modeling

Air dispersion modeling uses information about sources and meteorological conditions to calculate how a pollutant moves through the atmosphere and what the pollutant concentration is at specific points.
SVG Icon

Emissions Management

Emissions management involves the calculation, collection and summarization of emission data from a variety of sources. This emission data may be used to create inventories or to run air dispersion models.
SVG Icon

Risk Assessment

Risk assessment involves modeling the fate and transport of pollutants beyond air dispersion, considering deposition, runoff, and bioaccumulation to assess their impact on people and the environment.
SVG Icon

Emergency Release

Is a specific kind of air dispersion modeling that deals with accidental releases, typically denser than air. This kind of modeling is used to evaluate accident scenarios and create emergency response plans.
