    Elaboración de un inventario de fuentes fijas de combustión establecidas en el Parque Industrial de la ciudad de Cuenca para la estimación de emisiones atmósfericas
    (2015) Aguirre Ramón, Jenny Fabiola; Machado Cuzco, Jessica Alexandra; Moscoso Vanegas, Diana Lucía
    Industrial Park of Cuenca city is located in northwest this park has presented an increase in their productive activity, today we can find a variety of important industries like food industry, ceramic, metal mechanical, elaboration of tires, textiles and plastic, for this situation and lack of information we have seen the need of to do inventory about air emissions of companies considered as a stationary sources of combustion in order to quantify the most representative contaminants, for the future determine the impact generated air resource witch visibly affects human health and environmental degradation. Into the selected for the study area was found 121active industries of which 32 are considered stationary combustion. The methodology used for the preparation of the inventory was made by emission factors with the result that the pollutant emitted is mostly sulfur dioxide (SO2), due to the production of paper, cardboard with a total of 8.71 kg/h, for fuel with high sulfur content, is also a consequence that this company works 24 hours a day and 7 day a week. The pollutant that is emitted in smaller quantities is carbon monoxide generated by the manufacture of furniture and joinery with a total of 4.70 kg/h. We can find suggestions to the competent environmental authority about the implementation of control measures to reduce emissions, for another part to prepare an updated database for tracking into this area of interest.
