The Examination of different Air Constituents to Ascertain Pune City's Air Quality

The city of Pune experiences poor air quality, leading to research of various air constituents in order to assess the overall quality of the air. Significant pollutants such as PM2.5, PM10 (RSPM), NO2, O3, SO2, and CO are addressed in this analysis, along with their causes and consequences. Exceeding WHO standards, levels of PM2.5 constitute a severe problem; NO2 and O3 levels constitute grounds for concern. In order to mitigate such pollutants and obtain cleaner air in Pune City, the research stresses the necessity for more difficult emission control measures, the promotion of public transportation and electric vehicles, and the supervision of industrial and construction activity. The objective of this research is to evaluate Pune City's air quality and offer insights by thoroughly examining various air quality elements. An extensive tracking strategy is analyzed for three years (2022, 2023, and 2024), considering air quality components like RSPM (PM10), PM-2.5,NO2, O3, etc. Various graphs are analyzed for the above-mentioned years and observe the growth in air quality index for Pune city. In the last three years, data has been collected from government websites on a monthly basis, and various graphs have been plotted by considering their average value. All the graphs show an increase in the air quality index. The study's findings provide valuable new information on the present state of the air quality in Pune City and emphasize the urgent need for effective air quality management measures. To mitigate air pollution, maintain public health, and maintain environmental sustainability, initiatives must concentrate on emissions control, planning for cities, enhancing public transportation, and creating green infrastructure in Pune City.
