Air at the Brod-Rafinerija station

Brod, Republika Srpska

Network: Republic Hydrometeorological Institute of Republic of Srpska · Station code: BA0047A

This year, up to yesterday (October 6)

39 days

with a daily average of particulate matter PM10 above the legal limit of 50 µg/m³.

35 days are allowed in the whole year.

The number allowed for the whole year has been exceeded.

4 days more than allowed

In 2025: 90 days above the limit, 35 allowed.

17 days

with an 8-hour average of ozone (O₃) above the target value of 120 µg/m³.

The target value allows 25 such days a year, averaged over three years.

Worst day: January 15, 2026, PM10 179 µg/m³ as a daily average, 3.6 times the limit.

Daily average for 271 of 279 days · data for 2026 not yet finally verified · Yardstick: limits in Republika Srpska (Uredba, Official Gazette RS 124/12, as given in the RHMZ RS report)

All figures by year and month

No data has arrived from this station since October 6, 2026 at 15:00

No reading for 31 hours.

We take the readings from the European Environment Agency (EEA), and no new values for this station are coming from there. The cause may lie with the station itself or with the data transmission.

This station is one of 6 stations in Republika Srpska from which no data has been arriving since October 6, 2026. The data stopped at almost the same time. When data from several stations stops within a few hours, the cause is probably shared, for example in the data transmission. Where exactly, we cannot tell from here.

Last reading: October 6, 2026 at 15:00
Measured then: NO₂ 9 µg/m³, O₃ 31.3 µg/m³, PM10 9.5 µg/m³, PM2.5 8.4 µg/m³, SO₂ 11.3 µg/m³

How the air is changing

Over the last seven days there was more NO₂ and O₃ in the air than the week before.

  • PM10: average 9.5 µg/m³, week before 9.5 µg/m³
  • PM2.5: average 8.4 µg/m³, week before 8.4 µg/m³
  • NO₂: average 13.5 µg/m³, week before 8.5 µg/m³
  • O₃: average 13.2 µg/m³, week before 11.1 µg/m³
  • SO₂: average 11.2 µg/m³, week before 11 µg/m³

Last month there was less PM10, PM2.5, NO₂, O₃, and SO₂ in the air than the month before.

  • PM10: average 9.5 µg/m³, month before 16.3 µg/m³
  • PM2.5: average 8.4 µg/m³, month before 14.3 µg/m³
  • NO₂: average 9.3 µg/m³, month before 11.1 µg/m³
  • O₃: average 14 µg/m³, month before 21.2 µg/m³
  • SO₂: average 10.8 µg/m³, month before 13.1 µg/m³

* 2026 up to October 6; the average since the start of the year is not yet an annual average.

The monitoring networks have not yet finally verified this year’s data. The EEA publishes verified values once a year.

Unverified hourly values of particulate matter from 975 µg/m³ up, and single spikes from 500 µg/m³ up between low values, count as missing. In the verified data for BiH from 2023 to 2025 no hour was above 600 µg/m³.

■ and a figure in red: more than is allowed for the whole year.

The column for 2023 is shown on wider screens.

Compared with the new EU rules and the WHO recommendation

This is not the yardstick for the verdict above, only a comparison. From 2030 the EU tightens its limits (Directive (EU) 2024/2881), and since 2021 the World Health Organization has recommended even lower values.

  • EU from 2030: daily 45 µg/m³, 18 days allowed. In 2024 there were 88 such days.
  • WHO 2021: daily 45 µg/m³, at most three to four days a year. In 2024 there were 88 such days.
  • EU from 2030: annual average 20 µg/m³. Average in 2024: 38 µg/m³.
  • WHO 2021: annual average 15 µg/m³. Average in 2024: 38 µg/m³.

Calculated from the hourly values the EEA publishes. If late values arrive afterwards, an outage gets shorter or disappears.

Who is responsible

In Republika Srpska air quality is governed by the Air Protection Act (Official Gazette RS 124/11 and 46/17) and the Regulation on Air Quality Values (Official Gazette RS 124/12). The republic’s monitoring network is run by the Republic Hydrometeorological Institute (RHMZ RS), which publishes an air quality report every year.

We take the limit values from the RHMZ RS report for 2025, which cites the regulation. Unlike in the Federation of BiH, the hourly limit for nitrogen dioxide is 150 µg/m³, at most 18 times a year. As in the Federation, nitrogen dioxide also has a daily limit of 85 µg/m³ with no exceedance allowed. The regulation calls 500 µg/m³ of sulphur dioxide and 400 µg/m³ of nitrogen dioxide over three hours in a row a concentration dangerous to health.

We have not yet checked in the text of the law who in Republika Srpska must adopt a plan when a limit is exceeded, so we do not state it here.

We show measured values only. Whether an episode has been declared is decided by the competent authorities, who publish it on their own pages.

The limit values in BiH match the EU rules of 2008. Since 2021 the World Health Organization has recommended much lower values, for PM10 45 µg/m³ a day and 15 µg/m³ a year. From 2030 the EU lowers the annual PM10 limit to 20 µg/m³ (Directive (EU) 2024/2881).

We checked the rules against the published texts on 7 October 2026.

Where the data comes from

Measured by Republic Hydrometeorological Institute of Republic of Srpska. We take the values from the European Environment Agency (EEA) under the CC BY 4.0 licence.

Values marked provisional have not been fully checked by the network yet. The EEA publishes verified data for the previous year once a year, usually by the end of September.

An hourly value is the average of one hour. We show the end of the hour: the value to 18:00 was measured from 17:00 to 18:00.

A day runs from midnight to midnight local time.

We only show an average when at least three out of four hours in the period have a reading. The EU air quality directive requires this for daily averages, and we apply the same rule to longer periods. We compare an annual average with the EU limit only once 90 % of hours are measured, as the directive requires. For 12 months and for a year we ask for more: if less than 90 % of hours are measured, every full calendar month needs readings for at least half of its hours. Otherwise a whole season could be missing from the average, such as summer, when ozone is highest.

We do not call a difference of up to 10 % a change, nor one of up to 1 µg/m³ at low levels, because weather and measurement uncertainty alone cause differences that size.

When a station sends no reading, the EEA sometimes fills the hour with a model estimate. We draw those hours dashed and leave them out of every average.

The limits are those of Republika Srpska (Uredba o vrijednostima kvaliteta vazduha, Official Gazette RS 124/12), as listed by RHMZ RS in its report for 2025. Unlike in the FBiH, the hourly limit for NO₂ is 150 µg/m³. When more than a tenth of the days or hours are missing, the number of exceedances can only be higher, so we write “at least” in front of it.
