Abstract:

Air pollution is called the presence of any kind or form of substances, noise or radiation found in the atmosphere in such a quantity, concentration or duration capable of causing harm in human health, living organisms and ecosystems. By understanding the reasons behind the increase of air polluting substances in the atmosphere, we may have better chances of solving the problem in the future.

Abstract:

The poisonous and harmful substances which contaminate or infect the air are called air pollutants. Air is the mixture of different gases in the environment, polluted by different human activities. Air is very important for the existence of lifecycle on earth. Air is present all around the earth's surface. It is also present in soil and water, due to which living beings can breathe inside the soil and water. Everybody needs air; it is needed for living organisms to remain healthy and safe in the environment. Many sources pollute the air, in these sources, including natural (forest fire, Vo

Abstract:

Air pollution has been directly responsible for increases in mortality and morbidity in the general population during periods known as episodes, when pollutant levels were elevated well above those that occur on a regular basis. The major concern today regarding pollution and health is, however, more subtle—namely, whether the lower levels of pollution to which we are exposed dally are harmful to health. It is extremely difficult to relate specific health problems to specific pollutants, because other environmental and lifestyle factors may contribute to decrements in health, Furthermore peopl

Abstract:

<em>Air quality has emerged as a critical factor influencing public health, environmental sustainability, and economic development. This study investigates the spatial and temporal variations of air quality, focusing on key pollutants such as PM2.5, PM10, NO2, SO2, and ozone across urban, suburban, and rural settings. Utilizing advanced monitoring technologies and machine learning algorithms, we analyse extensive datasets to identify sources of pollution and assess their impacts on human health and ecosystem stability. Findings reveal a significant correlation between industrial activities and

Abstract:

The paper presents a study of air pollution caused by black carbon (BC) and fine particulate matter (PM) carried out in the rural area of the municipality of Loški Potok in the winter season of 2017/2018. Measurements of pollutants were performed at two different locations, one at Retje, a village at the bottom of a karst depression, and the other on the top of the Tabor hill in settlement Hrib. The measurement results exposed the main sources of black carbon air pollution in this area: domestic heating with biomass (almost 80% of all black carbon emissions) and unfavorable meteorological cond

Abstract:

Abstract Hanoi is an economic-society centre of Vietnam but also faces the problem of air pollution with diverse sources including points, areas, and mobility sources. The emission inventory is a big project at the city level which determines a tabulation of compounds released into the atmosphere. The objectives of the study are to determine the status of air pollutant emissions and which activities are the main contributors to emissions in the sources in Hanoi city. By the combined methods, findings revealed that air pollution emitted from the sources in Hanoi included 10,570 tons SO2 per yea

Abstract:

The quality of living space largely depends on the quality of indoor air. The physical and chemical properties of the air people breathe can affect their health and comfort. Indoor air pollution in residential and workplace environments can occur due to various activities of occupants or employees, such as cooking, smoking, and using electronic devices, as well as emissions of pollutants from building materials and the use of certain products. Pollutants that can be present indoors include carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, volatile organic compounds, particulate matter, aerosols, biological conta

Abstract:

While the debate about air pollution in India continues to focus on visible pollution sources such as rapid growth in coal-based thermal power generation, mining operations etc., tremendous growth of vehicles inside the cities is largely out of considerations of urban Indians and is one of the key drivers of the crisis. This work exposes the key factors responsible for urban air pollution emission.   Identification of the problem clearly indicates that large numbers of vehicles are the dominant sources of urban air pollution growth, with those running on adulterated fuel as the main drive

Abstract:

Air pollution is a global environmental concern that poses significant risks to human health. Among the various pollutants, arsenic (As) has gained considerable attention due to its widespread occurrence and severe toxicological effects. This review paper aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the sources, distribution, and toxicological importance of arsenic in the context of air pollution. Arsenic is a naturally occurring element and can be found in various forms, including inorganic and organic compounds.

Abstract: Air Pollution has become one of the significant factors behind the increase in world-wide mortality rate. There are several reasons behind this increased rate such as rapid growth of industrialization, vehicular pollution accompanied by increase in urbanisation and burning of fossil fuels. This paper presents the proper management and mitigation plan (action plan) of air pollution scenario for the city Prayagraj based upon emissions. Some major air pollutants under consideration in the city of Prayagraj are Particulate Matter (PM10) and particulate matter (PM2.5). There are several p

Abstract:

Problem statement. The fact that the air we breathe is polluted is well known. There are many sources of pollution, especially in big cities. Various sensors are installed to monitor pollutants in the air. One of the global systems for registering the concentration of pollutants in urban air is AQI. Air quality monitors collect data of five major air pollutants – ground-level ozone, particle pollution, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen dioxide, that then convert to the Air Quality Index. And although the sensors themselves are not capable of reducing pollution in the air, based on
