Air Emissions, Air Quality and Energy Efficiency Monitoring for Prioritisation of Pollution Preventions and Public Health in the Region of Mpumalanga Highveld Conurbation

Viability assessment and outline plan for regional air quality monitoring on the Highveld, including institutional arrangements and information gaps, for industry, regulators and community bodies.

by Prof HJ Annegarn, MA Kneen, M Josipovic & MFF Ferraz | October 2004

What this report found

A regional monitoring programme was found to be viable and is proposed as a public private partnership covering air emissions, air quality and energy efficiency on the Mpumalanga Highveld. The assessment concluded that the worst health impacts fall on residential areas, driven by inefficient coal burning for heating and by housing sited close to large industry.

What this report found

Electrical and electromagnetic ground surveys were run over a Waterberg profile with borehole logs and three dimensional seismic data as control, to test whether cheaper methods can match seismic reflection for locating coal and faults. Resistivity tomography at two electrode spacings, frequency and time domain electromagnetics, controlled source audio magnetotellurics and magnetics were all acquired. Results are preliminary.
