Air quality assessment and management is usually performed using atmospheric integrated modelling systems and comparisons with data observed by monitoring stations. In Italy, the Project MINNI (National Integrated Model in support to the International Negotiation on Air Pollution) has been supporting Italian Ministry of Environment for the last ten years within the international negotiation pro...

On the basis of the reported air quality index (API) and air pollutant monitoring data provided by the Guangzhou Environment Monitoring Stations over the last twenty-five years, the characteristics of air quality, prominent pollutants, and variation of the average annual concentrations of SO2, NO2, total suspended particulate (TSP), fine particulates (PM10), CO and dustfall in Guangzhou City we...

Air pollution is a challenging issue in some of the large cities in developing countries. Air quality monitoring and interpretation of data are two important factors for air quality management in urban areas. Several methods exist to analyze air quality. Among them, we applied the dynamic neural network (TDNN) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) methods to predict the concentrations of ground-level...

Traditional air quality monitoring relies on point measurements from a small number of high-end devices. The recent growth in low-cost air sensing technology stands to revolutionize the way in which air quality data are collected and utilized. While several technologies have emerged in the field of low-cost monitoring, all suffer from similar challenges in data quality. One technology that show...

Wireless sensor network (WSN) enhanced the process of monitoring many environmental phenomena such as the air pollution monitoring issue in proposed this paper. In this paper, a WSN based microcontroller equipped with gas sensors have been actively used for air quality monitoring. The design included several units mainly: Arduino Microcontroller, MQ-2 Gas Sensors, and the current regulator circ...

Industrialization, explosive population growth, anthropogenic activities, and vehicular exhaust deteriorate ambient air quality across the world. The current study aims at assessing impacts on patterns their co-relations in one of world’s most polluted cities, i.e., Lahore, Pakistan, during a strict, moderate, post-COVID-19 period 28 months (March 2020–June 2022). purpose this is to monitor ana...

Surface coal mining creates more air pollution problems with respect to dust than underground mining . An investigation was conducted to evaluate the characteristics of the airborne dust created by surface coal mining in the Jharia Coalfield. Work zone air quality monitoring was conducted at six locations, and ambient air quality monitoring was conducted at five locations, for a period of 1 yea...

The worsening condition of the environment on various levels of devastations in various regions negatively shares both the health of the population and the general quality of the entire ecosystem. The air pollution is the cause of hundred of thousands of deaths of Europeans per year and millions of people in the world. At present we are breathing the air polluted by the power industry, the traf...
