The main pollutants of thermal power plants are wastewater, waste gas, waste residues, noise, radiation and other pollution.
Exhaust gases are combustion gases containing sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides produced after the combustion of coal. At present, all thermal power plants have installed flue gas purification devices and can meet the emission standards. According to the diffusion model, there is practically no impact beyond 100 meters from the thermal power plant.
Wastewater, waste residues and noise, in accordance with the environmental impact assessment standards before the construction of thermal power plants, have all been recovered and will not affect people.
The current main impact is that the purified combustion gases of thermal power plants contain a large amount of water vapor, which causes pollutionvisual for people.
This power plant can pollute an area within a 5 kilometer radius.
Thermal power plants cause serious pollution of the atmosphere due to the combustion of large quantities of coal, oil or natural gas, and are one of the main sources of pollution of the urban atmosphere. The degree of pollution varies considerably depending on the type of fuel. At present, China still mainly burns coal, and the proportion of fuel oil is only about 10%. Dust is the main pollutant emitted into the atmosphere by thermal power plants, and its emissions are very significant. Residents around thermal power plants are recommended to live at a distance greater than 5 kilometers.
During operation, the thermal power plant will emit high electromagnetic radiation, which is very harmful to the human body. Under long-term radiationrm, it is easy to cause qualitative changes in blood and lymphatic fluid, especially for the human body. children, the impact is particularly significant and can easily lead to leukemia.
