Air Quality Trend Analysis, causes, and methods

Air pollution poses a significant threat to public health and the environment, particularly in densely populated urban areas like Delhi City. This abstract delves into the trends, causes, and strategies to mitigate air pollution in Delhi.The analysis of air quality trends reveals a concerning pattern of consistently poor air quality levels in Delhi, with frequent occurrences of hazardous pollutants such as particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These pollutants originate from various anthropogenic activities, including vehicular emissions, industrial processes, construction activities, biomass burning, and dust from roads and construction sites.The causes of air pollution in Delhi are multifaceted, stemming from both local sources and regional factors. Vehicular emissions, particularly from diesel vehicles, contribute significantly to the pollution burden.
