Abstract

Petrochemical industries are among the basic-heavy industries which produce variety of important products. They have significant potential to affect air, soil and water quality. This paper studied a number of air pollutants in Shiraz Petrochemical Complex in order to determine their potential adverse health, environmental and costs effects. Dispersion of air pollutants from Shiraz Petrochemical Complex has been studied in area of 50×50km. Inhalation risk and environmental impact assessment have been evaluated with AirQ+ and SimaPro software. Economic costs related to Air pollution also investigated with BENMAP software. The results show that Shiraz Petrochemical Complex could contributes to a wide variety of long and short term adverse health effects. It also has a significant contribution (about 39%) to PM2.5 concentration in MARVDASHT city. The healthcare costs related to Air pollution could be rise to 750 thousand dollars per year. Emission of gaseous pollutants in Shiraz Petrochemical Complex are low, however it needs more control over particulate matter PM2.5 specially in Ammonia and Urea units. Even if Air pollution will disperse throughout the Persepolis area, but characteristics of their adverse effects needs wider discussion.
