Particulate Matter Levels in Ambient Air Adjacent to Industrial Area

Levels of Fine Particulate Matter Bound Trace Metals in Air of Glass Industrial Area; Firozabad

The present study deals with sequential extraction of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) bound trace metals in an industrial area of Firozabad, India. During the study period, daily PM2.5 concentration ranged between 73.49 μg/m3 and 113.26 μg/m3 with poor air quality index of 196.37. In the present study, Ca recorded the highest while Co had the lowest concentration among all analysed metals. Mn, ...

Trend of ambient air particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter of 2.5 μm and smaller in Zahedan city in 2018-2019

Background and Objective: Air pollution is one of the most important environmental risk factors that exposure to it can cause many acute and chronic effects on human health. Some regions of Iran, especially the western, southern and southeastern provinces of the country, have been affected with dust storm for years. Studies on the frequencies of dusty days in the country show that central pits ...
