Hội nghị Khoa học Công nghệ lần thứ - SEMREGG 2018 MANAGEMENT MODEL OF AIR QUALITY AND FORECAST OF SO2 AND NOX CONCENTRATION OF NHON TRACH INDUSTRIAL ZONE COMBINING NEURAL NETWORK AND GEOSTATISTICS TECHNOLOGY Le Thi Thu Thao, Pham Hoang Thu Na, Pham Van Tat* Department of Environmental Engineering, Hoa Sen University, Ho Chi Minh city * Email: vantat@gmail.com ABSTRACT The management modelling of the emitted gases SO2 and NOx at Nhon Trach industrial zone was utilized to assess the air quality using the nonlinear multivariate regression, neural network and Kriging technique The operation of this industry zone in years 2011 to 2018 was developed quyckly extent The nonlinear multivariate models and the three-layer neural network architecture I(3)-HL(8)-O(2) were constructed to predict the concentration of gases SO2 and NOx The predicted values resulting from those models are compared with the monitored concentration at various locations at Nhon Trach The nonlinear models were established with statistical parameters R2fit = 0.9334, RMSE = 0.0499, SSE = 0.6217, Fstat = 64775.9226 for gas SO2 and R2fit = 0.9704, RMSE = 0.03813, SSE = 0.7918, Fstat = 68385.4330 for gas NOx The neural network model I(3)-HL(8)-O(2) was built with RMSE = 0.0344, R2train = 0.9777 for gas SO2 and RMSE = 0.0263, R2train = 0.9986 for gas NOx Geostatistical techniques and Kriging interpolation model were used to find the trend of air pollution at industrial zones of Nhon Trach The study results indicate that the neural network is able to give better predictions with less residual mean square error than those given by nonlinear multivariate models The obtained models can support effectively in the management of air quality in industrial areas of Nhon Trach, Dong Nai Keywords: Air pollution, geostatistical analysis, interpolation method, neural network, multivariate analysis INTRODUCTION In recent years the industrial area of Nhon Trach district is in the status of air pollution at an alarming rate, due to the population grows rapidly which is followed by the development of industrial areas The air pollution is also increasing Recognizing the level of air pollution caused by the industrialization, since 1999 the station network of air monitoring has been located in residential, traffic and industrial zone with 46 positions In addition, it will continue to offer control solutions while adding several monitoring locations to industrial clusters by 2010 [1] So far, Nhon Trach district has 10 industrial zones, including Nhon Trach 1, 2, 2-D2D, 2-Loc Khang, 2-Nhon Phu, 3, 5, 6, Nhon Trach and Ong Keo This number will continue to increase in the future [2,3] Nowadays the studies implemented on dispersion of pollutants in atmospheric environment The various prediction techniques including gaussian and numerical models are generally used The inputs to dispersion models include emission, meteorological data and monitoring locations The output of these models is the predicted concentration of specified monitoring locations [4,5] The models are mainly based on the mathematical formulation of the physics and chemistry of the atmosphere Especially under normal conditions, when the pollutants disperse on horizontal 109 The fourth Scientific Conference - SEMREGG 2018 direction due to changes in the wind direction over a one-hour duration could not be well represented by the Gaussian distribution [6] Even the dispersion models have some physical parameters and detailed information about the sources of pollutants But in this model other parameters are not generally known To surmount this, statistical models are also employed to simplify the prediction of pollutant concentrations [7,8] The statistical models could be the relationship between the variables in nature However, such models requyre information about the data distribution [6] Recently, neural network models have also been applied to predict pollutant concentrations The neural network model can be a better alternative to statistical models It can handle data having high dimensionality [9,10] Furthermore the geographic information system technique has been also widely used in several fields of environmental management, in order to analyze and manage the factors affecting the environment clearly, more accurate In this work we report the construction of nonlinear multivariate models and neural networks to predict the concentration of gases SO2 and NOx at the industrial zone of Nhon Trach These models are constructed by the relationship between impacting factors humidity (%), temperature (oC) and wind speed (km/h) with concentrations of gases SO2 and NOx The geostatistics technique is used to identify the contaminated areas by air pollutants and the trend of the neighboring location in an industrial area in Nhon Trach The obtained output resulting from those models is compared to the monitoring data The interpolation technique of Kriging model is used to evaluate to find the trend of pollutants in industrial areas in Nhon Trach MATERIALS AND METHODS 2.1 Dataset The monitoring stations of air quality in Nhon Trach consist of 11 monitoring positions To test the air quality we performed the calculations of AQI index for substances SO2 and NOx The monitoring stations are distributed close by industrial areas in Nhon Trach, such as Ong Keo, Nhon Trach, Dai Phuoc, Long Phuoc, the industrial center Phu Thanh Vinh Thanh The monitoring subjects are used to create the various models and to chart the trend of pollution levels of each gas in accordance the years 2011 to 2018 The program Arcgis10.2 is used to map for the Nhon Trach location of Dong Nai and the monitoring locations of Nhon Trach as well as providing information on the characteristics of GIS map The dataset including spatial and attribute data as the x-y coordinate of monitoring stations, concentration of gases SO2, NOx and meteorological data are used to establish the shape file of the study area at Nhon Trach of Dong Nai province The monitoring stations with sample notation are given in Table The map of the study area at Nhon Trach is presented in Figure Table The location of monitoring stations with sample notation of industrial zone No Monitoring station Coordinate Sample notation X Y The industrial zone Nhon Trach 409198 1188812 AI-NT-01-L1 The industrial zone Nhon Trach 413132 1185690 AI-NT-02-L1 The industrial zone Nhon Trach 410982 1182587 AI-NT-03-L1 The industrial zone Nhon Trach 407036 1186484 AI-NT-04-L1 Ong Keo 402445 1177682 AI-OK-01-L1 Ong Keo 397441 1178192 AI-OK-02-L1 110 Hội nghị Khoa học Công nghệ lần thứ -

SEMREGG 2018 2.2.2 Neural network model A neural network is a biologically motivated structure whose ith neuron has an input value xi, output value yi = f(xi), and connections with the other neurons are described by weights wij A threelayer network I(k)-HL(m)-O(n) with one hidden layer is given in Fig A brief description of neural networks is given in [12,13] Generalization and error tolerance are the main features of neural networks [14] The neural network I(k)-HL(m)-O(n) was trained and tested using program JMP Pro 13 A three-layer neural network consisted of an input layer, an output layer and one hidden layer A typical Elman network is presented in Fig Each layer has a number of nodes called neurons The nodes in the input layer distribute the input signals to the network The nodes in the output layer are characteristics of air quality Each node in the hidden and output layers has an activation function, which transfers the node input to an output signal The output is a function of the inputs to the first layer The sigmoid transfer function from -1 to is given as y e x x (2) Where y is the node output and x is the total node input 2.2.3 Geostatistics method Geostatistics is a class of statistics used to analyze and predict the values associated with spatial or spatiotemporal phenomena It incorporates the spatial coordinates of the data within the analyses [15] The geostatistical tools were developed as a practical means to describe spatial patterns and interpolate values for locations where samples were not taken Those tools and methods have since evolved to not only provide interpolated values, but also measures of uncertainty for those values [16,17] Geostatistical analysis has also evolved from uni- to multivariate and offers mechanisms to incorporate secondary datasets that complement a primary variable of interest, thus allowing the construction of more accurate interpolation and uncertainty models [15] Kriging model assumes that at least some of the spatial variation observed in natural phenomena can be modeled by random processes with spatial autocorrelation, and requyre that the spatial autocorrelation be explicitly modeled Kriging techniques can be used to describe and model spatial patterns, predict values at unmeasured locations, and assess the uncertainty The progress is expressed through the steps: -
