Prediction of SO2 levels using neural networks

J Air Waste Manag Assoc. 2003 May;53(5):532-9. doi: 10.1080/10473289.2003.10466186.

Abstract

In this paper, we present an adaptation of the air pollution control help system in the neighborhood of a power plant in As Pontes (A Coruña, Spain), property of Endesa Generación S.A., to the European Council Directive 1999/30/CE. This system contains a statistic prediction made half an hour before the measurement, and it helps the staff in the power plant prevent air quality level episodes. The prediction is made using neural network models. This prediction is compared with one made by a semiparametric model.
