Studies and calculations

Modelling calculations

Do you need to quickly compare stack, plant room or transport variants? We perform immission and noise modelling calculations — documentation for a study, EIA or authority consultation.

Documents and preparation

What to send us

  • source technical parameters and emission data
  • project layout and surrounding development
  • operating schedule and variants
  • authority requirement or study brief

Typical mistakes and risks

  • Calculation without verified input emission data
  • Failure to consider all relevant sources on site
  • Confusing calculation with field measurement for existing operation
Typical situations
  • immission modelling calculation for new technology on site
  • noise calculation for plant room or HVAC location variants
  • immission contributions for a landfill or boiler dispersion study
  • documentation for EIA and permitting

Frequently asked questions

When is a dispersion study required?

Prepare a dispersion study for a new or modified emission source, technology change, capacity increase, EIA, permitting proceedings or on instruction from the regional authority.

Who may prepare a dispersion study?

A dispersion study may be prepared by an authorised person within the relevant scope.

What documentation is needed for a dispersion study?

Typically a technology description, emission parameters, stack height and diameter, volumetric flow, temperature, operating hours, site layout, transport data, surrounding development data and the study purpose.

Can a dispersion study be prepared for variants?

Yes. For projects in preparation, multiple technology, stack, operating mode, capacity or transport intensity variants can be compared. Variant assessment helps the investor and designer find a technically and environmentally preferable solution.

When is a noise study appropriate?

A noise study is appropriate before implementing a new noise source, during technology change, for industrial sites, HVAC, heat pumps, transport, storage and production operations, or as documentation for building proceedings, KHS or EIA.
