Guideline for the Index of the Quality of the Air
Author:
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Air
Languages : en
Pages : 60
Book Description
The Index of the Quality of the Air described in this report was originally developed by a subcommittee of the Federal-Provincial Advisory Committee on Air Quality in the late 1970s. This report replaces the Annual Air Quality Index, provides an update of the Short-term Index published in 1980, and incorporates subsequent revisions to the national ambient air quality objectives and recommendations on additional sub-indices. Its goal is to provide information on the adverse effects of the five common pollutants: sulphur dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, and total suspended particulates.

Air Pollution Control
Author: Sudarshan Prasad Mahajan
Publisher: The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI)
ISBN: 8179931862
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 197
Book Description
Air pollution is aggravated in recent times because of four developments: increasing traffic, growing cities, rapid economic development, and industrialization. This book discusses the most important issues pertaining to air pollutants, their characterization, ambient concentrations, and effects on human health and ecology.

Air Quality Control
Author: G. Baumbach
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642790011
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 472
Book Description
Air quality and air pollution control are tasks of international concern as, for one, air pollutants do not refrain from crossing borders and, for another, industrial plants and motor vehicles which emit air pollutants are in widespread use today. In a number of the world's expanding cities smog situations are a frequent occurrence due to the number and emission-intensity of air pollution sources. Polluted air causes annoy ances and can, when it occurs in high concentrations in these cities, constitute a seri ous health hazard. How important clean air is to life becomes apparent when consid ering the fact that humans can do without food for up to 40 days, without air, how ever, only a few minutes. The first step towards improving the air quality situation is the awareness that a sound environment is as much to be aspired for as the development of new tech nologies improving the standard of living. Technical progress should be judged es pecially by how environmentally benign, clean and noiseless its products are. Of these elements, clean air is of special concern to me. I hope that this book will awaken more interest in this matter and that it will lead to new impulses. Due to the increasing complexity of today's machinery and industrial processes science and technology can no longer do without highly specialized design engineers and opera tors. Environmental processes, however, are highly interdependent and interlinked.

Statistical Summary and Trend Evaluation of Air Quality Data for Cleveland, Ohio, in 1967 to 1971
Author: Harold E. Neustadter
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Air
Languages : en
Pages : 28
Book Description
Air quality data for Cleveland, Ohio, for the period of 1967 to 1971 have been collated and subjected to statistical analysis. Total suspended particulate is clearly lognormally distributed, while sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide are reasonably approximated by lognormal distributions. Only sulfur dioxide, in some residential neighborhoods, meets Ohio air quality standards. Air quality has definitely improved in the industrial valley, while in the rest of the city, only sulfur dioxide has shown consistent improvement. A pollution index is introduced which displays directly the degree to which the environmental air conforms to mandated standards.
