Impact of Transport and Industrial Emissions on the Ambient Air Quality of Lahore City, Pakistan - Ⅱ

摘要：

This study presents the finding of ambient air quality monitoring carried out in Lahore city, Pakistan. The ambient air quality was monitored for criteria pollutants carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), particulate matter (TSP & PM10), lead (Pb) at selected locations of the city. The sampling locations were selected in away to draw a representative profile of air quality; covering both newly developed as well as highly congested urban centers. The sulfur dioxide, lead and suspended particulate concentration was found very high as compared to the ambient air quality standards of USEPA and WHO guidelines. The study present the current scenario of air pollution in the city, and in absence of local ambient air quality standards would be helpful to develop air quality database.
