Abstract

Air pollution adversely affects the lives of all the living, in particular human health. In case its effect increases and it continues to harm the living, it will cause countless health issues and this will incur economical losses in our country. The use of poor-quality coal leads to an increase in air pollution. The coals of this quality used in the city of Bitlis have led to the increase of air pollution. In order to ensure air quality, the polluting amounts should be decreased and the national pollution limiting values should be such that they are applicable. Monitoring the current pollution state by preparing an emission inventory for developing future clean air plans and taking the necessary measures is important for laying out the extent of the air pollution problem. Under the Clean Air Action Plan for the City of Bitlis, the city was evaluated in respect of its general characteristics and considered with regard to the distribution characteristics and effects on human health of the pollutants. The amount of coal consumed in Bitlis in 2014 was obtained from Bitlis Directorate of Environment and Urbanization and this value is approximately 32802 kg. In 2014, due to coal firing in Bitlis, the amounts released to the atmosphere are calculated to be 1178 tons/year for SO₂ emission, 105 tons/year for NO₂,  124 tons/year for PM₁₀ and 1316 tons/year for CO.
