What affects the air quality in Smart Cities

Air pollution in a city depends on many things. Among them are the weather, traffic, industry, building work, vehicle fumes and waste disposal.

PM2.5 pollutant in a city
Particulate Matter PM2.5 denotes fine particles that are 2.5 micrometres or less in size. Such particles come from many different sources within a city. The chief ones are vehicle fumes, factory work, building sites and the burning of fossil fuels.
CO pollutant in a city
Carbon monoxide (CO) forms when fossil fuels do not burn fully, mainly in vehicles. In urban areas, heavy traffic and choked roads are among the biggest sources of carbon monoxide emissions.
NO2 pollutant in a city
Nitrogen Dioxide NO2 is produced mainly by burning fossil fuels in vehicles and power plants. Heavy traffic jams in a city are a major source of NO2 emissions. Factory work and the heating of homes with fossil fuels may also release nitrogen dioxide into the air.
SO2 pollutant in a city
Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) comes mainly from the coal and oil burnt at power plants and factories. In urban areas, vehicles that run on diesel engines add to SO2 emissions as well. Further still, some industrial processes, such as smelting and refining, let sulphur dioxide out into the air around us.
ozone pollutant in a city
Ground-level Ozone (O3) is not released at source. It is formed when nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) react with one another in sunlight. Vehicle fumes are the main source of these precursor pollutants in urban areas.

Health Impacts

Urban air pollution can have a serious impact on human health, the environment and the economy of a city. Brief exposure may lead to breathing problems such as asthma and bronchitis. Longer exposure can raise the risk of heart disease, stroke, cancer and premature death.

Have a question? We are here to help.

Prana Air's smart city air quality monitoring and solutions project offers a complete answer for cleaner city air. It provides air quality monitors, air quality drones, outdoor air purifiers and data dashboards. With these tools, a city may meet air quality standards, protect public health and cut greenhouse gas emissions as well.

Prana Air's smart city air quality monitoring and solutions project provides a number of benefits, such as:

1. Improved air quality: Live data on air quality levels helps a city see the problem clearly. Targeted steps then reduce pollution, so the air gets better.

2. Protected public health: People come to know the air quality levels. They are also alerted when the air turns unhealthy, and this helps protect public health.

3. Reduced greenhouse gas emissions: By backing cleaner fuels and technologies, the project can help bring greenhouse gas emissions down.

An air quality monitor is a device that tells you how much of each pollutant the air holds. Examples are particulate matter (PM2.5, PM10), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulphur dioxide (SO2), ozone (O3) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Prana Air offers advanced air quality monitors with live data on these pollutants.

The air quality drone is a smart tool that collects air quality data at many heights and places. Its onboard sensors let it fly over areas of interest and report on how air quality varies from one place to the next across the city.

Prana Air outdoor air purifiers are devices meant to filter and clean the air in open spaces, including parks, streets and public areas. They help bring down the level of harmful pollutants and make the outdoors healthier for all.

Prana Air, together with AQI, provides data dashboards that show air quality data in a form that is easy to follow. These dashboards may be reached on TV screens, LED displays, mobile/tablet apps and the website. Each one gives live updates on air quality levels and trends.

Prana Air's smart city air quality monitoring and solutions project collects live data on air quality levels as its first step. This data reaches a central data server, where it is studied and shown on data dashboards. Alerts may also be raised when air quality levels turn unhealthy in an area.

Prana Air's smart city air quality monitoring and solutions project serves a wide range of stakeholders, including: 1. Citizens: can use the data to take informed decisions about their health and well-being. They can also use it to hold elected officials to account for cleaner air. 2. Businesses: can use the data to judge how air pollution affects their work and to plan ways to lower their emissions. 3. Government officials: can use the data to frame and apply rules that improve air quality. 4. Researchers: can use the data to study the health effects of air pollution and to create new tools that cut pollution.

The data dashboards provide clear insights on air quality trends and pollution levels. Cities and communities may rely on this data for informed choices on town planning, traffic flow, public health schemes and much more. The final aim is always better air quality for all.

Yes, the Prana Air with AQI mobile/tablet apps are easy to use and open to the general public. Through these apps, people stay aware of the air quality in their own surroundings at any time and can take the right steps for their health and well-being.

To keep its monitors accurate, Prana Air uses advanced sensor technology along with proper tuning. Routine upkeep and quality checks are carried out as well, so the air quality data stays reliable and precise.

Yes, the Prana Air project is flexible by design and may be shaped to the exact needs of various cities and communities. Solutions are tailored to the unique air quality challenges and goals of each place.

Cities and organisations that wish to take up the Prana Air smart city air quality monitoring and solutions project may contact the Prana Air team through the official website or other contact channels.
