High consumption of coal that affected the prime energy balance, plus the absence of effective measures to protect the atmosphere from pollution, resulted in a widespread ecological threat to Poland. The paper describes the current air pollution conditions in Poland and basic measures that apply to the energy production sector that must by implemented. The most important and simplest method to reduce the emissions of SO{sub 2} and dust that result from burning coal is to introduce fuel enrichment and desulfurization.
