OBJECTIVES
To analyze the structure of vehicular population
To estimate the annual emission of pollutants (NOx, SOx, CO and CO2) from vehicles
To estimate the emission trends from traffic sources
To estimate afforestation required to minimize the annual CO2 emitted from vehicles
To determine the health effects of traffic pollution.
To suggest some mitigation measures for reducing the traffic pollution.
MITIGILATION
Fuel quality improvement
Traffic regulations and enforcement
Improvement of technology
Strengthen of legal authority
Public awareness
Research and development activities
CONCLUTION
The regular rising of vehicles in the city due to their increasing transport demands
The problem of vehicular air pollution is the integrated form of improper traffic management, low quality fuel utilization, absence of enforcement of proper traffic management, and the absence of exhaust gas control mechanism.
Diesel truck is the main vehicle responsible for SOX emission
Increasing rate of CO2and CO in last 10 years is 6.3% and 9.5%
Affected persons are vehicles staff, traffic personnel and shopkeepers.
Affected persons are suffering for mainly eye irritation, immediate coughing and respiratory illness.
