| Abstract This paper discusses the environmental impact assessment (EIA) for Shubra Al-Kheima power plant in Egypt. The study focuses on the air pollution problem caused by of fuel combustion in the boilers of thermal power plant. Pollutant emissions from the thermal power plants represented in sulphur oxides (SOR2R), nitrogen oxides (NOR2R), and particulate matter (PMR10R). Therefore, severe restrictions and controls are taken into consider to assess the environmental impacts of such projects, before implementation, and during the operation of these projects. In this study, Industrial Source Complex software (ISCST3) is utilized to study the effects of pollution caused by emissions from stacks of the Shubra Al-Kheima station. The study is based on maximum hourly (MRHR) and maximum daily (MRDR) prediction of SOR2R, NOR2R and PMR10R concentrations at two different locations. The results of the concentrations of PMR10R, NOR2R, and SOR2R are compared with the limits stated by Egyptian Environmental Affairs Agency (EEAA), World Bank Environmental Law (WE), Environmental Standards in (U.S)-(ESUS) and Air Quality Standards for (U.K)-(AQSUK). | ||||
