Abstract :

Air pollution has become an environmental problem of public concern worldwide. Amravati city is a fast-developing city, the rural population around the city migrated towards the city. Because various facilities such as education, market, business, health, and entertainment are available in the city; increasing urbanization increases the vehicular traffic day by day. In addition to these five stars, MIDC at Nandgaonpeth which is a distance of 20km from the core Amravati city is growing tremendously. It is observed that the air quality of Amravati city is degrading day to day which affects human health in the city and adjoining areas. The Sofia thermal power station contributes a large quantity of SPM, RSPM, SOx, NOx, etc. In our study, the concentration of suspended particulate matter (SPM) and OZONE were monitored over periods of 24 hours at Amravati city. Pollutant concentrations were used to determine the AQI. The five location locations have for select or the assessment of SPM and OZONE based on traffic volume, locality, and availability of electricity. The High-Volume Sampler (HVS) is used to find out the concentration of SPM and O; Spectrophotometer is also used for evaluation for O; concentration. SPM is collected on filter paper. This study identifies the potential of pollutants and the degree of air pollution. Further, management strategies to minimize the effect of air pollutants have also been suggested.
