1.0 Brief Introduction.

 Undertaking impact studies of air pollution on the environment involves investigating how
pollutants released into the atmosphere can harm our natural surroundings. These studies aim
to

 Identify Sources: Determine the origins of air pollutants, such as industrial emissions,
transportation, and natural events like wildfires.

 Assess Environmental Effects: Examine how these pollutants impact air quality, soil, water
bodies, and ecosystems, including their effects on plants, animals, and aquatic life.

 Analyze Long-term Consequences: Investigate the long-term consequences of air pollution,
including climate change, acid rain, and the depletion of ozone in the atmosphere.

 Propose Mitigation Strategies: Suggest measures to reduce emissions and protect the
environment, including regulations, technological advancements, and conservation efforts.

 Through these studies, we gain a better understanding of the far-reaching consequences of air
pollution on our environment, which can inform policies and actions aimed at preserving our
ecosystems and mitigating the harmful effects of pollution.

 Air pollution can damage crops and trees in a variety of ways. Ground-level ozone can lead to
reductions in agricultural crop and commercial forest yields, reduced growth and survivability
of tree seedlings, and increased plant susceptibility to disease, pests and other environmental
stresses (such as harsh weather).

WHAT IS AIR POLLUTION ?

Air pollution refers to any physical, chemical or biological change in the air. It is the
contamination of air by harmful gases, dust and smoke which affects plants, animals and
humans drastically.

There is a certain percentage of gases present in the atmosphere. An increase or decrease in

the composition of these gases is harmful to survival. This imbalance in the gaseous
composition has resulted in an increase in earth’s temperature, which is known as global
warming.

WHAT IMPACT OF AIR POLLUTION ON ENVIRONMENT ?

 Ecosystems can become imbalanced from air pollution

 Pollution particulates eventually fall back to earth, contaminating the soil
 Air pollution creates acid rain, which can damage plants.
 Acid rain also changes soil chemistry, which can alter plant growth.
  Animals also get affected by air pollution – reproduction may get damaged, and reproductive
anomalies may occur.
 Furthermore, air pollution can also cause health and respiratory issues for animals.
 Air pollution is also one of the major causes of global warming
 Global warming can also lead to more destructive natural calamities such as storms and cyclones.
 Burning certain substances may release potentially carcinogenic substances.

THE MAJOR POLLUTANTS ASSOCIATED WITH AIR POLLUTION ON ENVIRONMENT

1. Ozone-

The primary ingredient in urban smog, ozone is created when hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides both
of which are chemicals released by automobile

fuel combustion react with sunlight. Though beneficial in the upper atmosphere, at the ground level
ozone can irritate the respiratory system, causing coughing, choking, and reduced lung capacity.

2. Particulate matter-

These particles of soot, metals, and pollen give smog its murky color. Among vehicular pollution ,fine
particles pose the most serious threat to human health by penetrating deep into lungs.

3. Nitrogenoxides-

These vehicular pollutants can cause lung irritation and weaken the body's defenses against
respiratory infections such as pneumonia and influenza. In addition, they assist in the formation of
ozone and particulate matter.

4. Carbon monoxide-

This odourless, colourless gas is formed by the combustion of fossil fuels such as gasoline. Cars and
trucks are the source of nearly two-thirds of this pollutant. When inhaled, CO blocks the transport of
oxygen to the brain, heart, and other vital organs in the human body. New born children and people
with chronic illnesses are especially susceptible to the effects of CO.

5. Sulphurdioxide-
Motor vehicles create this pollutant by burning sulfur-containing fuels, especially diesel. It can reacting
the atmosphere to form fine particles and can pose a health risk to young children and asthmatics.

6. Hazardous air pollutants-

These chemical compounds, which are emitted by cars, trucks, refineries, gas pumps, and related
sources.

CAUSES OF AIR POLLUTION ON ENVIRONMENT

1. The Burning of Fossil Fuels

Most of the air pollution takes place due to the incomplete burning of fossil fuels. These include coal,
oil, and gasoline to produce energy for electricity or transportation. The release of CO at a high level
indicates how much fossil fuel is burned. This also emits other toxic pollutants like nitrogen oxides into
the air. Inhaling air induced with pollutants due to the burning of natural gas and fossil fuel reduces
the heart’s ability to pump enough oxygen. Hence causing one to suffer from various respiratory and
heart illnesses. Furthermore, the nitrogen oxides are responsible for acid rain and the formation of
smog.

2. Industrial Emission
Huge amounts of organic chemicals like CO2, hydrocarbons, etc. are released by the industries
including other toxicants. They furthermore affect the climate as CO2 causes a greenhouse effect.
Hence, causing the heat to be trapped within the earth’s atmosphere. Therefore, the temperature and
humidity increase. More and more industries are being built as the demand grows. And as a result the
emissions also increase day by day. We are already observing the after-effects of this, as the earth’s
temperature rises by 1 degree Celsius per decade.

3. Indoor Air Pollution

Climate change is not just increasing wildfire but also spiking air pollution. Burning stubble and farm
residue is also a major contribution to wildfire. It causes increased PM2.5 in the air which collides with
other harmful substances like chemical gas and pollen creating smog. Smog makes the air hazy and
people find it difficult to breathe. Visibility also decreases as a result of this smog. Difficulty in
breathing, irritation in the eyes, nose, and throat, itchiness in the respiratory tract, etc. are all
symptoms of inhaling smog.

4. Microbial Decaying Process

Manufacturing, chemical, and textiles industries release a large number of CO, hydrocarbons,
chemicals, and organic compounds which contaminate our environment. Bacteria and fungi play a
fundamental role in the biogeochemical cycles in nature. They are the key indicators of abnormal
environmental conditions. Decaying of these microorganisms present in the surroundings releases
methane gas which is highly toxic. Breathing toxic gas like methane may lead to death.
Decaying process releases carbon, methane, and nitrogen that can affect the quality of air to some
extent. As these microbes stay suspended in the air, they can cause
 5. Transportation

Cars on the roads are increasing day by day. There is no denying that vehicle pollution is the major
contributor to air pollution, especially in urban cities, where car ownership rates are more as
compared to rural areas. When the car burns gasoline, it emits pollutants in the air which is as
harmful as smoking 10 cigarettes a day. Your vehicle emits:
1. Carbon monoxide,
2. Hydrocarbons,
3. Nitrogen oxide, and
4. Particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10)

6. Open Burning of Garbage Waste

Open air garbage burning releases toxins such as black carbon, soot, and carcinogens. It actively
contributes to the greenhouse effect, and in turn to climate change. Black carbon and soot gets
deposited on the ice peaks, which results in their meltdown.
Open garbage burning causes skin irritation, aggravates asthma and other respiratory diseases and
illnesses, increases the risk of heart diseases, and difficulties in breathing, nausea and headaches.

7. Agricultural Activities
Agricultural activities have had a serious impact on the decreasing air quality. To begin with,
pesticides and fertilizers are the main sources that contaminate the surrounding air. Nowadays,
pesticides and fertilizers are mixed with new invasive species which are not found in nature, for
quick growth of the crops and vegetation. Once they are sprayed over, the smell and the effect of
the pesticides are left in the air. Some mix with water and some seeps into the ground which not
only destroys the crops but also causes numerous health-related issues.

What you can do about air pollution

There are many small, but critical sources of air pollution in our homes and
neighborhoods. Such sources — vehicles, construction equipment, lawn mowers, dry
cleaners, backyard fires, and auto-body shops — are located where we live and work.
Total emissions from these smaller but widespread sources are significantly greater than
all the industrial sources in the state combined.

To prevent pollution from these sources, the MPCA provides education,

guidance, and incentives for reducing air pollution. We have programs for businesses,
cities, nonprofits, and communities that address a range of environmental problems,
including air quality.

 Drive your car less. :

Vehicle exhaust is a major source of air pollution in Minnesota. Carpool.

Bike. Bus. Telecommute. Electric vehicles. How could you burn less fuel?

 Keep your car in good repair.:

Fix exhaust and oxygen sensor problems ASAP. Check your tire pressure
monthly; under-inflated tires have been shown to lower gas mileage, particularly at lower
speed.

 Turn off your engine.:

An idling engine creates a hot spot of pollution. Buses and big trucks
produce particularly unhealthy exhaust. Parents and teachers can help their schools and
daycares develop and implement no-idling policies.

 Don't burn your garbage.:

Burning your household garbage is dangerous to your health and our

environment, and generally against the law in Minnesota. If you're still using a burn barrel,
wood stove, or fire-pit for your trash, contact your county about arranging for trash hauling
services.

 Limit backyards fire in the city.:

Smoke from backyard fires can cause unhealthy conditions for hundreds of
people, especially during stagnant weather conditions. Since cities have elevated levels of
pollution compared to rural areas, urban fires are more of a nuisance to people with
asthma and other lung conditions. If you do have a campfire:
 o Keep fires brief and small — 3 feet across or less.
o Burn only dry fire wood. In the Twin Cities it is illegal to burn any waste in a fire,
even yard waste.
o Never start campfires during an air quality alert. Sign up for texts or emails about
elevated air pollution levels.

 Plant and care for trees.:

Trees filter pollutants and absorb carbon dioxide. Trees also release
oxygen into the atmosphere and help cool our homes.

 Switch to electric or hand-powered lawn equipment. :

Gas-powered engines like those on lawnmowers and leaf or snow

blowers often lack pollution control devices. An hour running a lawn mower can produce
nearly the same amount of pollution as a 100-mile car trip! Use hand-powered or electric
lawn care equipment instead.

 Use less energy. :

Choose efficient appliances and heating systems. Get an energy audit

and follow the advice. Turn off electrical stuff you are not using. It all adds up.

 Become a champion for clean air :

Direct local businesses, city offices, and school districts toward programs
that can help them reduce air pollution and become more sustainable.

 GreenStep Cities:

City and county officials governments can help by passing local

ordinances, creating incentives for beneficial behaviors, and promoting and educating
residents on best practices.

 Small business assistance:

The Small Business Environmental Assistance Program helps

Minnesota businesses comply with environmental rules, reduce wastes and emissions,
and reduce regulatory obligations.

 Minnesota GreenCorps:

An AmeriCorps program coordinated by the MPCA places members

with organizations around the state to address environmental issues, including air quality.
Nonprofit, government and school districts are eligible to host members to work on
qualified projects.
 Observations

RESPIRABLE DUST SAMPLING :-

Respirable dust sampling is a process of measuring contaminants in the volume of air at a

given workplace that can be inhaled by workers. Various dust sampling methods are used
to identify the volume of dust particles and chemical vapors to make sure the health of
workers is not at stake. Respirable air sampling is very popular among industrial workers
who are constantly exposed to vapors, gases, and particles. The purpose of air sampling
is to detect the harmful compounds lingering in the air and take effective measures to
control them.

RESPIRABLE AIR SAMPLER

Cyclone based Separation (NEERI Design)Brushless Blower

APPLICATION:-

The APM 460 is used for routine monitoring of PM 10 in the ambient air. By using the
APM 460, measurement of Respirable Particulate Matter can be done accurately and
TSPM can also be assessed by collection of dust retained in the cyclone cup. The APM
460 gained acceptability from academic institutes consultants and a wide spectrum of
industries besides country-wide use by the Pollution Control Boards and the National
Ambient Air Monitoring Program
WORKING PRINCIPAL :-

The APM 460 sampler uses an improved cyclone with sharper cutoff (D50 at 10 microns)
to separate the coarser particulates from the air stream before filtering it on the glass
microfibre filter (CSIR NEERI knowhow). APM 460 comes with a brushless, continuous
rated induction motor to significantly reduce equipment downtime, maintenance efforts
and inconvenience to community. The brushless blower of the APM 460 also substantially
reduces the audible noise. A thermal cut-out has been incorporated to protect the Blower
motor from burnout due to overheating. With the improved motor design the instrument no
longer needs a voltage stabilizer resulting in cost saving and lowering the weight of the
field instrument. The cabinet design has been improved to prevent entry of rainwater and
dust into the machine.

Special features:-

 A brushless blower reduces equipment downtime and maintenance effort

 Significantly reduced Noise

 Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) to TVs eliminated

 Over temperature cut-off protects Blower

 A smaller cabinet size makes it easier to carry the instrument from one site to another
  Lockable Top cover and Gaseous attachment

 The improved cabinet is more weather resistant and durable with SS hardware

It’s often been said that we only have one earth and we should do everything to protect it.
One cannot afford to sit on the side lines and watch because when it comes to pollution,
everyone is affected, even the ones that did not contribute to it. air pollution is affecting
the environment . The good thing is that something can actually be done about it. It
begins with individual responsibility in having a cleaner planet. When people change their
mindsets and become more proactive, a lot of good things can be achieved. In the same
manner, air pollution can also be reduced and managed affecting environment .

we must prioritize proactive policies and technologies that reduce emissions, transition to
renewable energy sources, enhance industrial practices, and advocate for sustainable
transportation. Public awareness and education are pivotal in fostering responsible
choices and promoting a collective shift towards a cleaner, healthier environment. By
committing to ongoing research, international cooperation, and community engagement,
we can forge a sustainable path that protects our planet from the ravages of air pollution,
ensuring a better quality of life for generations to come.
