Abstract

Emissions of pollutants into the atmosphere and their magnitude are the cause of many environmental problems today from the local to the global scale. The city of Pinar del Rio and the community of Santa Lucía province of Pinar del Rio are not an exception to this situation, being essential an inventory of emissions, constituting this the objective of this research. The data are obtained from the Automated Information Management Pollutant as methodologies were used, NC 39: 1999 to classify the radio sources for health protection, ranging from I, more pollution to V, less pollution, the NC 242: 2005 for the uptake of the technology data on stationary sources and emission factors at a calculate emissions. The values obtained show that in the city of Pinar del Rio the NOx is emitted a greater extent with 4 646.91 t/year, followed by sulfur dioxide with a value of 3 651.89 t/year and in a third place the PM10 with a value of 90.16 t/year and they are originated mostly by Briones Montoto generator. In the community of Santa Lucía source analyzed was Sulfometales Plant and the most emitted pollutant is sulfur dioxide which was issued with 18.2 t / year, followed by NOx with 2.16 t/year. It also shows the results of emissions of pollutants emitted by each source and organisms
