Monitoring of hydrogen sulfide concentration in the atmosphere near two geothermal power plants of Turkey
This study was designed to measure H2S concentrations near GPPs in Aydin and Manisa over different time intervals to address potential health hazards and odor problems for human populations. Measurements of H2S concentrations with a Radiello (R) and Thermo 450i (R) were carried out in a GPP (25 MWe)...

Measurements of H2S concentrations with a Radiello (R) and Thermo 450i (R) were carried out in a GPP (25 MWe) in Aydin, Turkey.

H2S concentrations measured by Thermo (R) 450i and Radiello (R) were lower than the limit reported by WHO (100 mu g m(-3)).

The air H2S concentrations in Aydin and Manisa, where the power plants are concentrated, ranged 11.2-66.7 mu g m(-3).
