Aerosls are emitted by a several sources, these can be antropogenic – emitted by human activities - or natural.Their sudies are an important, because its impacts on the dynamics of the Earth’s atmosphere are huge. The study area have one of the most important industrial complex in the state of Sao Paulo. In the past the city of Cubatão was known as “death valey”, due to the environmental problems caused by the high levels of pollutants that was emitted by the industries. Following this event, regulatory laws on atmospheric emissions were developed, both at the state and federal levels. Today, although Cubatão has lower levels of pollution and controlled industrial emissions, but it is possible to observe overcoming air quality standards. Based on the presented context, the present work aims to conduct a study of the dispersion of aerosols in the region of Cubatão-SP using several techniques, such as: remote sensing (elastic lidar and wind lidar), satellite data, air quality information and also simulations of air masses using a model.
Correlation study between air quality data and the Lidar system in Cubatao, Sao Paulo

We present here the results of two methods with a scanning multiwavelength elastic lidar system and Beta Ray method (CETESB) realized in an industrial area. The objective is a comparer of these two methods to identify fixed sources of aerosol and to monitor plume dispersion. The results of the two aligned techniques indicate that can provide information on the concentration, spatial and temporal distribution of aerosol.

Fugitive emissions, defined as unintended or irregular leaks of gases and vapors, these are an important source of pollutants to the atmosphere, which is difficult to monitor and control. These sources are present in different sites, including megacities like São Paulo that are growing in size and economic activity. At the same time, there is a remarkable growth in concerns about the environmental issues associated with these activities. In a constantly changing world, with increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs), among them methane (CH4) and volatile organic compounds (VOC), mitigation of atmospheric emission of these gases to contain global warming, make field campaigns in the metropolitan region of São Paulo very relevant. Optical remote sensing techniques as lidar can attend the need for real time and trustable information on fugitive emissions. The Cavity Ringdown Laser Spectroscopy (CRDS) technique was adopted because it is widely used in the detection of gas samples that absorb light at specific wavelengths and also for their ability to detect mole fractions up to the parts per trillion level. The Raman lidar system used includes a commercial laser pulsed Nd:YAG Quantel S.A., model CFR 200, with wavelengths of 355 nm, 353 nm and 396 nm, 120 mJ pulse power, with laser repetition rate of 20 Hz and pulse width of 20 s, with a spatial resolution of 7,5 m. The system includes an ethernet interface, used together with LabView software to control the measurement and readout of the acquired data. The mixing ratio of CH4 can be observed within the planetary boundary layer. The measured methane profiles correlate with the acquisitions made with the CRDS, however, an additional contribution of control data in which the Raman lines detect with high sensitivity.

Fugitive emissions, defined as unintended or irregular leaks of gases and vapors, are an important source of air pollution that is difficult to monitor and control. Within industrial facilities such as oil and gas processing plants, fugitive methane emissions can be a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions. In Brazil, as in other countries, there are specific regions with high concentration of industrial activities, and showing high population density. These sites, including megacities like São Paulo, are growing in size and economic activity. At the same time, there is a remarkable growth in concerns about the environmental issues associated with these activities. In a constantly changing world, with increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs), among them methane (CH4) and volatile organic compounds (VOC), mitigation of atmospheric emission these gases to contain global warming, is of key concern, gas data suggest that fugitive emissions accounted for more than 5% of global greenhouse gas emissions over the past 5 years. Optical remote sensing techniques as lidar can attend the need for real time and trustable information on fugitive emissions. These techniques are non-intrusive, of relative simple construction, thus demanding less maintenance, and are able to provide data from distant locations with a high spatial resolution, typically up to 20 km from the measuring local, and 3 to 4 m long segments. Besides, information on different pollutants can be obtained simultaneously by adequate optical arrangements and data treatment methods. The technique can supply adequate information at lower costs and less effort than other techniques. The Cavity Ringdown Laser Spectroscopy (CRDS) technique was adopted because it is widely used in the detection of gas samples that absorb light at specific wavelengths and also for their ability to detect mole fractions up to the parts per trillion level. The correlation of the data between the techniques of real-time detection becomes interesting, since practical operations, fast and with a high level of sensitivity and precision are made. The mixing ratio of CH4 can be observed within the planetary boundary layer. The measured methane profiles correlate with the acquisitions made with the CRDS, however, an additional contribution of control data in which the Raman lines detect with high sensitivity.
Análise da dispersão de aerossóis em Cubatão-SP por meio de técnicas de sensoriamento remoto
2019 - ANDRADE, IZABEL da S.
A cidade de Cubatão está localizada na região da baixada santista, no estado de São Paulo. Ela conta com um dos maiores complexos industriais do Brasil, tendo este iniciado as suas atividades na década de cinquenta. Cubatão, tornou-se uma grande potência econômica seguindo as tendências de seu desenvolvimento industrial. Contudo o progresso fabril aliado a ausência de políticas públicas e regulatórias, no que se refere à emissão de poluentes atmosféricos, trouxe graves consequências ambientais. A ausência de leis ocasionou um grande problema ambiental em Cubatão na década de oitenta, época na qual a região atingiu níveis altíssimos de poluição atmosférica, ganhou grande repercussão internacional e deu origem ao termo Vale da morte. Após este acontecimento, foram desenvolvidas as leis regulamentadoras de emissões atmosféricas, tanto no âmbito estadual quanto no federal. Hoje apesar de Cubatão possuir níveis mais baixos de poluição e emissões industriais controladas, é possível notar ultrapassagens dos padrões de qualidade do ar. Baseado no contexto apresentado sobre o município, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo realizar um estudo da dispersão dos poluentes na região de Cubatão-SP utilizando técnicas diversas, como: sensoriamento remoto - técnica Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) e dados de satélite - e informações de qualidade do ar disponibilizados pela CETESB.
Monitoring the industrial sources of aerosol in Cubatao, Brazil, using a scanning elastic lidar and a lidar doppler
2018 - COSTA, RENATA F. da; MARQUES, MARCIA T.A.; MACEDO, FERNANDA de M.; ANDRADE, IZABEL da S.; ARAUJO, ELAINE C.; CORREA, THAIS; SALANI, MARIA H.G. de A.; LOPES, DANIEL S.; GUARDANI, MARIA L.G.; LANDULFO, EDUARDO; GUARDANI, ROBERTO
Field campaigns with a scanning multiwavelength elastic lidar coupled with a Doppler system to monitor industrial atmospheric aerosol emissions were carried out, with the objective of monitoring aerosol emission sources and plume dispersion. Since the technique provides information on the spatial and temporal distribution of aerosol concentration, the implementation of a systematic monitoring procedure is proposed as a valuable tool in air quality monitoring applied to regions of interest.
