Sažetak
The study was performed in thirteen European Countries in the frame of the IAEA Regional TC project. The samples of PM10 fraction of Air Particulate Matter (APM) were collected in each country at two sites (urban and rural) during two seasons (winter and summer) in 2009, 2010 and 2011. The concentrations of PM10 were the highest in winter seasons 2010, 2011 and varied from 10 to 134 μg/m3 at urban sites and from 25 to 95 μg/m3 at rural sites. The values for summer were lower and varied from 4 to 40 μg/m3 at urban sites and from 12 to 30 μg/m3 at rural sites. In some locations the limit values were exceeded especially during winter time. Additionally the elemental concentrations were determined in APM by using nuclear or related analytical techniques. The values of the elemental concentrations did not exceed the limit values given by the EU regulations. The following elements were considered: K, Cr, Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, Se, Cd, Pb and Br. In parallel the meteorological parameters were measured and correlated with the elemental concentrations.
