J. Annegarn A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of Johannesburg, in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science 15 September 2012 Dedication This work is dedicated to my husband Anthony Scorgie, my mother Margaret Goosen and my children Michael and Katelyn. iii Acknowledgments I extend my sincere appreciation to the following individuals and organisations that have provided support during the course of my research: Prof. Harold Annegarn, for sharing his extensive knowledge of South Africa‟s air quality issues, and his insight into the shaping of solutions to suit local circumstances. His unwavering support and leadership have been invaluable. Melanie Kneen (University of Johannesburg) for her work on the NEDLAC Dirty Fuels Study, specifically in regard to extracting remote sensing burn scar data to estimate the spatial extent of biomass burning and assisting in the spatial distribution of household fuel burning and road transport emissions. Dr Lucian Burger, Hanlie Liebenberg-Enslin and Gerrit Kornelius (Airshed Planning Professionals Pty Ltd) for supporting my interest in air quality governance and providing valuable technical input. Lucian‟s guidance on the estimation and future projection of vehicle exhaust emissions during the Dirty Fuels Project, Gerrit‟s collaboration on the work undertaken in support of national emission standard setting, and Hanlie‟s shared interest in local air quality management planning is specifically acknowledged. Renee von Gruenewaldt (nee Thomas, Airshed Planning Professionals), for assisting in updating portions of the Highveld emissions inventory used as the basis for the modelling of tropospheric NO2 concentrations. Dr Andreas Richter (Institute of Environmental Physics at the University of Bremen) for providing the SCIAMACHY plots used in the study. Dr Peter Newman (UK Environment Agency) for provision of written inputs to inform the research undertaken in support of the national emission standard setting process. Eskom Holdings for providing meteorological, source and emissions data for use in the study and for their research support. Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism, specifically the Chief Directorate: Air Quality Management, for sanctioning my involvement in several projects including national state of air reporting and work in support of AQA implementation. Rina Taviv and colleagues (CSIR) for collaboration on the inaugural National State of Air Project. City of Johannesburg, Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality and City of Cape Town personnel for providing me with insight into the challenges facing local authorities and involving me in their air quality management plan development processes. Organisations and companies having provided air quality monitoring data for use in national air quality baseline characterisation. Their proactive approach, in the absence of legislation requiring such air quality monitoring, has significantly contributed to our understanding of the status of air quality and facilitated the identification of major air pollution challenges. Stellenbosch Automotive Engineering for providing the national vehicle fleet data using in the NEDLAC Dirty Fuels Study. South African Weather Services, for the provision of surface and upper air data including ETA model data. iv The South African National Research Foundation, for supporting the work by providing bursary funding.

  • Mercury Emissions from South Africa's Coal-Fired Power Stations
    Mercury emissions from South Africa’s coal-fired power stations Belinda L. Garnham*1 and Kristy E. Langerman1 1Eskom Holdings SOC Limited, Megawatt Park, 1Maxwell Drive, Sunninghill, Sandton, [email protected], [email protected] Received: 8 August 2016 - Reviewed: 3 October 2016 - Accepted: 2 November 2016 http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2410-972X/2016/v26n2a8 Abstract Mercury is a persistent and toxic substance that can be bio-accumulated in the food chain. Natural and anthropogenic sources con- tribute to the mercury emitted in the atmosphere. Eskom’s coal-fired power stations in South Africa contributed just under 93% of the total electricity produced in 2015 (Eskom 2016). Trace amounts of mercury can be found in coal, mostly combined with sulphur, and can be released into the atmosphere upon combustion. Coal-fired electricity generation plants are the highest contributors to mer- cury emissions in South Africa. A major factor affecting the amount of mercury emitted into the atmosphere is the type and efficiency of emission abatement equipment at a power station. Eskom employs particulate emission control technology at all its coal-fired power stations, and new power stations will also have sulphur dioxide abatement technology. A co-beneficial reduction of mercury emissions exists as a result of emission control technology. The amount of mercury emitted from each of Eskom’s coal-fired power stations is calculated, based on the amount of coal burnt and the mercury content in the coal. Emission Reduction Factors (ERF’s) from two sources are taken into consideration to reflect the co-benefit received from the emission control technologies at the stations.

  • Strategy to Reduce the Health Impacts Associated with Air Pollution from Fuel Combustion
    Strategy to reduce the health impacts associated with air pollution from fuel combustion 5 December 2003 DRAFT FINAL REPORT Executive summary Objective and scope The primary objective of the study was provide an assessment of the social and economic impact of the phasing out of air pollution from combustible fuels in the country over a period of time, and to provide specific guidance on supply side measures to support the process. The study investigated emissions resulting from ddomestic fuel burning, power generation industrial activity, transport and activity in the agriculture sector. It is important to recognise that the scope of this study was limited in that it only included the quantification of inhalation exposures due to fuel burning related atmospheric emissions. It does not quantify emissions or impacts associated with other sources of emissions. The emissions identified were SO2, NOx, particulates, CO, lead, VOCs, (CO2, CH4, N2O). It must also be considered that although the study investigated emissions and their sources at conurbation level, impacts were considered from a national level and the overall strategy is at national level The following conurbations were included in the study: Cities of Johannesburg and Ekurhuleni, Tshwane, Cape Town and Ethekwini Mpumalanga Highveld Vaal Triangle For air pollution prediction the US-EPA approved Gaussian Puff air dispersion model was used, and limited to first order chemical transformation (secondary particulate formation), therefore excluded photochemical modelling (and ozone

    NWRS NWRS National Water Resource Strategy National Water Resource Strategy Water for an Equitable and Sustainable Future June 2013 Second Edition VISION OF THE NWRS2 Sustainable, equitable and secure water for a better life and environment for all NWRS NWRS National Water Resource Strategy NWRS NWRS National Water Resource Strategy PREFACE We all want a better life for all. This is the decade of equity and redistribution – the decade we must realise everyone's right to water, a right guaranteed in our Constitution. How do we achieve equity and redistribution of our water resources? How do we ensure water security for the future and also enough water for our national economic growth and development priorities? These are the challenges this National Water Resource Strategy 2 tackles. Our water resources are under pressure. If we are to meet the demands of the economy, of society and ensure sufficient water for the environment we need to make strategic decisions and plan comprehensively and carefully. This NWRS2 sets out the strategy to plan, develop, manage, protect and control the use of our water resources effectively for the future. If we are serious about achieving equity and redistribution and the goals of our developmental state, we need to streamline our policies, legislation and strategies for both water resource management and water services. We are currently tightening our policy, legislative and overall sector environment and this Strategy forms part of that process, so that we can remove obstacles to greater equity in water resource allocation and meet our national objectives. The dynamics of water, equity, development and growth are complex I would like to acknowledge and thank all those who where water resource management lies at the heart of our aspiration to contributed to this Strategy which, I believe, provides achieve growth, sustainable development and poverty reduction.
