RESUMENReducir las emisiones de mercurio en la atmósfera es uno de los acuerdos tomados en la Convención Internacional de Minamata, llevada a cabo en Kumamoto Japón en 2013. Ante este compromiso se estableció como objetivo principal de este estudio la estimación de la variación temporal mensual de las emisiones de mercurio por unidad de generación para cada una de las tres carb… Show more
“…Considering how toxic and persistent is the presence of mercury in the atmosphere, Sosa et al (2014Sosa et al ( , 2017 investigated the mercury emissions from 2012 to 2013 using monthly coal consumption data provided directly by the industrial sector for the three Mexican coal-fired power plants, and Fuentes et al (2017) reported the spatiotemporal variability of atmospheric mercury using per-day and per-generatingunit data of one coal-fired power plant (CETEPEC) in Mexico. Fuentes et al (2017) reported that mercury concentration in the coal from a Kansas mine in the USA, which is used by CETEPEC, was 0.335 mg Hg/kg of coal, and Múgica et al (2003) reported a concentration of 0.333 mg Hg/kg in Mexican coal.…”

“…These estimates were calculated using the USEPA methodology, assuming a mercury concentration in coal of 0.113 mg/kg. Table IV shows mercury emissions estimated by Sosa et al (2017) using the mercury emission rate.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
