Air quality sampling at Chalakudy was conducted in January 2016. The air quality in different places of Chalakudy was measured by finding the ambient concentrations of gases(SOx, NOx) and particulate matter using High Volume Sampler. The increasing general awareness of atmospheric pollution and its hazards to the health and well-being of industrial workers, educational buildings, offices etc., is bound to result in greater stress on accurate, reliable and frequent assessment of air pollution.
