Abstract Ambient (Outdoor) particulate matter (PM) represents a significant and growing concern in environmental health due to its widespread presence and its direct association with adverse health outcomes.
Ambient air quality in Chandrapur (Black Gold City) surrounding areas has been studied from January to December 2023. A total of 1287 ambient air samples have been collected from 11 Sampling stations i.e., Mahanagar Palika Chandrapur, Gadchandur Nagar Parishad, Mahatma Gandhi School, Ballarpur, MIDC Tadali, Multi Organics, MIDC, Chandrapur, Ghughus Nagar Parishad, Dall Mill, MIDC, Wani Gram Panchayat, Chikhalgaon Tahasil Office Wani, Bhadrawati Nagar Parishad, and District Collector Office, Gadchiroli.
The present study and Analysis of Ambient Air Quality reveal the highest concentration of RSPM (268 µg/m³) at Gadchandur Nagar Parishad and at MIDC Dall Mill Wani (240 µg/m³) in Wthe interseason whereas the lowest concentration of RSPM was found (55 µg/m³) at Mahanagar Palika Chandrapur and at Ballarpur Nagar parishad (58 µg/m³) was recorded in the Rainy season.
The composition of PM varies by geographic location and is influenced by sources such as vehicle emissions, industrial activities, biomass burning, and natural phenomena like wildfires and dust storms. This paper explores the sources, composition, and size-related health effects of particulate matter in and around Chandrapur area. It also highlights the urgent need for enhanced air quality and monitoring of PM2.5.
By addressing the Current status of Ambient matters, policymakers and researchers can work towards developing more effective interventions and regulatory frameworks to mitigate the impact of particulate matter on public health in and around Chandrapur Region.
