Port of Tallinn ENVIRONMENTAL PRIORITIES Top 10 Environmental Priorities of European Ports ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVITIES

• Port of Tallinn is obliged to perform EIA, marine environment monitoring due to development activity (quay construction, dredging work, filling work, etc). The obligation has been stipulated in environmental permits issued in relation to construction activity

• Port of Tallinn does not perform EIA, environmental monitoring by itself, as our staff does not include respective experts. Public procurement is organized for performing of EIA and monitoring, which criteria in addition to price also include experience and high level in performing of respective work

Our partners • Estonian Environmental Research Centre, Comon Invent Marine Systems Institute, of Technology • Estonian Marine Institute, University of Tartu • different EIA experts

AIR QUALITY Air Quality Problems

• The residential areas nearby Muuga harbour (oil terminals) have been complaining bad air quality during several years

• During recent years the real estate development has been very intense in the area

• The conflict of interests between development of residential areas and industry were already preprogrammed into land planning process Muuga Harbour Muuga 3 Air Surveillance

Real time air quality data is available to public via Internet page: http://airviro.klab.ee/ Cooperation for improvement of air quality in Muuga Harbour

• Oil Terminal Operators • Port Authority • Environmental Inspectorate • Environmental Research Center • Environmental Board • Ministry of Environment

e-Nose system

• eNoses are designed for continuous gas emission detection • eNoses provide information about the rise and spread of gas emissions • eNoses contribute to a pro-active odour & gas emission management • eNoses are NO GAS ANALYSERS! Complementary to human nose

Monitoring air quality & detecting anomalies

• Reducing the risk of noxious air pollution caused by oil comanies • Detecting anomalies in air composition • Getting updated info about the sources of anomalies – 24/7 online data, updated every minute

Comon Websuite – Online platform

Real-time information about the presence and spread of industrial emissions

Raw eNose & meteo (GPRS)

Live stream web-based dashboard Annoyed citizens Export historic data (e.g XLS) Remote server Expert perceptions Post processing * Data-analysis * Characterization * Training & Testing Example Good relation between eNose and odour complaints

Summarized

• eNoses are NO GAS ANALYSERS! Complementary to human nose • eNoses provide real-time insights in the rise and spread of gas emissions • eNoses are continuously exposed to ambient air (24/7) • Early detection of events that could cause odour nuisance & gas emission related risks • Gives good indication of historical & current air composition • eNoses provide information that can be applied for emission tracking and tracing • eNoses provide indicative information about the gas type causing irregularities in the air composition • Continious improvement (enlarge of Network, fingerprint development etc)
