The research describes the Gaussian plume model used to estimate the concentration of pollutants emitted from power plants and dispersed in the atmosphere. The object of the research is to compare the air quality between areas which is near to source station and away from the source station. The research estimates the concentrations of pollutants released from six electric power stations in Kuwait using the Gaussian plume model. A power plant with a stack height of 100 m, stack diameter of 2 m, and an emission rate of 1 kg/s for each station is considered. The Pasquill-Gifford stability categories are …
