Contact UsFactors shaping air quality in Logistics
Day-to-day logistics work adds to air pollution in several ways, giving off a mix of pollutants which includes:
Particulate matter (PM2.5 / PM10)
Loading operations, handling gear, diesel lorries and trains all give off PM.
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
Sources of VOCs include lorries, factory work, heating systems and packaging.
Carbon monoxide (CO)
Loading and unloading work, handling gear and fuel burning all release CO.
Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Fossil fuels burnt in lorries, shipping vessels, heating systems and the like release NOx.
Transportation
Trucks
Marine Vessels
Locomotives
Handling EquipmentStationary
Refineries
Oil & Gas Storage
Storage Piles of Coal
Power GenerationDID YOU KNOW?
Diesel engine exhaust can cause cancer in people, says the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), and breathing it in raises lung cancer risk.
Areas of Concern
Logistics work runs at a busy pace all day long, and this makes good air quality a real challenge to keep up here.
Warehouse Facilities
Lots of heavy work in closed spaces traps pollutants indoors.
Loading Docks
The pollutants here come from loading and unloading work and from lorry fumes.
Transportation Routes
Diesel fumes on key routes affect the homes and business areas around them.
Logistics Hubs
Pollution builds up in the local area where busy hubs work non-stop all day.
Who is at Risk?
In the logistics sector, air quality issues can pose health risks to everyone involved.
Logistics Workers
Years of contact with pollutants can result in lung and heart problems.
Nearby Residents
Pollutants put people living near logistics hubs at higher risk of ill health.
Drivers
Long hours in lorries expose drivers to high levels of harmful pollutants.
Delivery Personnel
Delivery and pickup runs mean long-term contact with pollutants.

Frequently Asked Questions
We are on hand to help with questions.
Diesel-powered transport and many other kinds of work are part of the logistics sector, and these can affect the towns and homes nearby.
Within logistics, warehouses, transport and fixed sources give off pollutants that include PM2.5, NOx, CO and VOCs.
Pollutants build up in crowded warehouse areas, and both indoor and outdoor air quality suffer as a result.
Air quality monitors and advanced air purifiers are among the practical tools Prana Air offers to improve the air quality in logistics.
Industrial Applications
Big or small, every business is welcome, and Prana Air offers a wide range of smart, low-cost and highly accurate air quality tools for many industries.
