AIR QUALITY ASSESSMENT OF AMLAI INDUSTRIAL AREA IN DIFFERENT SEASONSM.K. BHATNAGAR, AVINASH KUMAR, PRACHI BHATNAGAR AND POOJA SAXENAAbstract Although the climate of the Earth is continually changing from the very beginning, anthropogenic effects, the pollution of the air by combustion and industrial activities make it change so quickly that the adaptation is very difficult for all living organisms. Air pollution is the introduction of chemicals, particulate matter, or biological materials that cause harm or discomfort to humans or other living organisms, or cause damage to the natural environment or built environment, into the atmosphere. The atmosphere is a complex dynamic natural gaseous system that is essential to support life on planet Earth. Stratospheric ozone depletion due to air pollution has long been recognized as a threat to human health as well as to the Earths ecosystems. Indoor air pollution and urban air quality are listed as two of the worlds worst pollution problems in the 2008 Blacksmith Institute Worlds Worst Polluted Places report.Controlling and curtailing air pollution from industrial sources is essential to improv air quality. Industrial sources of air pollution include factories, electrical generation plants and incinerators. Because these sources exist in fixed locations, they are often referred to as point sources to distinguish them from emissions from mobile sources such as motor vehicles, boats and airplanes.amlai industrial area has also some point sources.The stack & ambient air quality of some locations in the area has been studied in different period of time. High volume air sampler has been used to determine SPM, RSPM, SOx & NOx concentration in the air. Study reveals that the quality of air is not so bad & in under control.
