They may be endangered due to pollution of air, water and land. In the recent years, air pollution reaches such proportions that require a special attention in terms of taking technical, technological, financial and economic, administrative and legal measures to protect the air. The basic and most common sources of air pollution are: industrial plants (technological processes), transport, energy (power plants and heating plants), and local boilers and furnaces in households. Water pollution is increasing. Different measures for rational use of water, reducing the amount of pollution and waste water, and protection of water resources are constantly being undertaken. The basic and most common sources of water pollution are: industrial plants and facilities, transportation, agriculture, towns and settlements. In addition, the environment is polluted by production and inadequate waste management and noise production. Industrial plants, especially metallurgical, due to the nature of technological processes and high emissions of harmful substances, cause multiple environmental consequences also to the environment, threatening the quality of the environment and the health of the population in industrial and urban areas, especially if there are not available measures to control and reduce emissions. This paper presents the results of monitoring of emissions from metallurgical plants and combustion plants and their impact on air quality and water in industrial-urban area of Zenica. The results presented in this paper can serve as a roadmap for measures to prevent / reduce and control emissions, improving the living conditions of the population and the sustainable management of environmental protection in industrial and urban areas of Zenica. Keywords: emission sources, emission of harmful substances, environment, air pollution, water pollution, environmental quality. 1. INTRODUCTION At the beginning of the third millennium, the air quality in urban areas in Europe, due to growing industrialization, receives a special attention. In industrial and urban areas, the 1 4th International Symposium on Environmental and Material Flow Management – EMFM14 31st October – 2nd November 2014, Bor’s Lake, Serbia problem of air and water pollution is much higher, especially in areas with developed base industries such as ironworks [1]. The present emissions of harmful substances have the multiple environmental consequences, threaten the environment quality and the health of the inhabitants of industrial and urban areas, especially if the effective available measures are not undertake in order to control and limit emissions and negative impacts on the environment [2,3]. Research and monitoring the environmental quality in urban and industrial areas is one of the first steps towards a solution, in most countries of the world, present problems of environmental pollution [4]. The study and monitoring the environmental quality aim to control and reduce the harmful substances [2]. In regard to monitoring air quality, a special attention was given to sulfur dioxide (SO2), total suspended particles (TSP), particulate matters PM10, nitrogen oxides (NOx) and other pollutants. Sulfur dioxide is a traditional air pollutant and monitoring its concentration is of a particular interest to characterize the air quality as it states the World Health Organization (WHO, 2000). It originates predominantly from the oxidation of sulfur compounds. Measurement of particles matter PM10 (d <10 microns), SO2, NOx and other pollutants in the air of Zenica basin has been continuously implemented for many years by using the automatic monitoring stations [5]. Industrial and thermal power plants have many options today to harmonize the production with more stringent requirements for preservation of environment quality. In this way, they can respond effectively to the challenges of the strict requirements for sustainable development. Therefore, many leaders in the steel industry, and in other sectors, start to adapt their procedures to reduce emissions into environment and impacts on the environment, and to improve their business image. They launched voluntary projects to reduce emissions and protect the environment. The best available techniques and eco-design are effective tools for achieving this goal. Zenica steel plant is on the track to realize this goal, which is defined in the plan of adjustment. The implementation of projects, defined in this plan, has already achieved high results regarding reduction of emissions of dust into the air and water, reduction of waste generating and noise, etc. The goal is to harmonize this steel plant with the European environmental standards and BAT by 2015, which is a very ambitious goal, given the inherited poor environmental practices and the lack of effective measures for environment protection. This paper presents the results of monitoring emissions from metallurgical and thermal power plants, and as well, their impact on quality of air and water in industrial-urban area of Zenica. Also, the paper presents the results of the implementation of the adaptation plan in relation to limit and control of emissions into the air and water and environment protection. 2. EMISSION OF HARMFUL SUBSTANCES INTO THE AIR FROM METALLURGICAL PLANTS The following table presents data on annual emissions of dust, SO2 and VOC. 2 4th International Symposium on Environmental and Material Flow Management – EMFM14 31st October – 2nd November 2014, Bor’s Lake, Serbia Table 1.

Dust emission of the coke plant is more than three times higher than the threshold limit value of 50 mg``/m3, due to the worn-out walling of the coke furnace. However, dust emission from agglomeration is a little bit bigger than the threshold limit value, and emission from the steelworks and blast furnace is a little bit below the limit value of 50 mg/m3. Emission of SO2 from agglomeration, steelworks and blast furnaces is lower than the threshold value, and emission from the coke plant is slightly higher than the limit value of 500 mg/m3. Figure 1.
