WHAT IS AIR POLLUTION?
Air pollution is the introduction of particulates,
biological molecules, or other harmful materials into
Earth's atmosphere, causing diseases, death to humans,
damage to other living organisms such as animals and
food crops, or the natural or built environment.

Sources – such Sources – such as
power plants, oil
as cars, buses, refineries,
planes, trucks, industrial facilities,
and trains and factories

Area Sources –

 EFFECTS OF AIR POLLUTION:

EFFECT TO HEALTH

EFFECT TO ENVIRONMENT

EFFECT TO WILDLIFE

EFFECT TO AQUATIC LIFE

1- EFFECT TO HEALTH:
Exposure to high levels of air pollution can cause a variety of adverse
health outcomes. It increases the risk of respiratory infections, heart
disease and lung cancer.  Both short and long term exposure to air
pollutants have been associated with health impacts.  More severe
impacts affect people who are already ill.  Children, the elderly and poor
people are more susceptible. The most health-harmful pollutants –
closely associated with excessive premature mortality –  are
fine PM2.5 particles that penetrate deep into lung passageways.

2-EFFECT TO ENVIRONMENT:
Air pollution can damage crops and trees in a variety of ways. Ground-level
ozone can lead to reductions in agricultural crop and commercial forest
yields, reduced growth and survivability of tree seedlings, and increased
plant susceptibility to disease, pests and other environmental stresses
(such as harsh weather).

Greenhouse gases cause the Earth's heat to be trapped in the atmosphere,

which leads to warmer temperatures, exacerbating climate change.
Air pollution can also impact the quality of soil and water,
impacting ecosystems and wildlife.

 AIR POLLUTION CAN ALSO CAUSE MANY MORE
ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES SUCH AS:
“Acid
ACID rain”
RAIN means the presence of excessive acids in rainwater. Burning of coal, wood or
petroleum produce sulphur and nitrogen.

“Eutrophication“occurs when the environment becomes enriched with nutrients, increasing the amount
of plant and algae growth to estuaries and coastal waters.
EUTROPHICATION

The presence of Fine Dust ,Smoke or Light Vapour that causes lack of transparency
in air is Known as “Haze”.
HAZE

GLOBAL WARMING:
Global warming is the long-term heating of Earth’s surface observed
since the pre-industrial period (between 1850 and 1900) due to
human activities, primarily fossil fuel burning, which increases
heat-trapping greenhouse gas levels in Earth’s atmosphere. 

“Climate Change” and “Ozone Depletion”

are the major effects caused by
Global Warming.

3/1/20XX SAMPLE FOOTER TEXT 9

CLIMATE CHANGE:
Since 1800s the human activities such as primarily due to burning fossil fuels
like coal, oil and gas has Increased a lot. Burning fossil fuels generates
greenhouse gas emissions that act like a blanket wrapped around the Earth,
trapping the sun’s heat and raising temperatures . These variation in
temperature leads to “Climate Change”.
Examples of greenhouse gas emissions that are causing climate change
include carbon dioxide and methane. These come from using gasoline for
driving a car or coal for heating a building. for example , Clearing land and
forests can also release carbon dioxide. Landfills for garbage are a major
source of methane emissions. Energy, industry, transport, buildings,
agriculture and land use are among the Main emitters.

OZONE DEPLETION:
The “ozone layer ”is a region in the earth’s stratosphere
that contains high concentrations of ozone and
protects the earth from the harmful ultraviolet
radiations of the sun.

“Ozone layer” depletion is the gradual thinning of the

earth’s ozone layer in the upper atmosphere caused due to the release of 
chemical compounds containing gaseous bromine or chlorine from
industries or other human activities.

3- EFFECT TO WILDLIFE:

Air pollution can harm wildlife in two main ways:

i) It affects the quality of the environment or habitat in which they live.
ii) It affects the availability and quality of the food supply.

3/1/20XX SAMPLE FOOTER TEXT 12

 How air pollution harms habitat?
Atmospheric deposition of nitrogen and sulfur resulting
from air pollution is a major stressor to natural ecosystems,
often leading to acidification and eutrophication of both
terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.

Habitat loss poses major welfare risks including preventing

safe animal movement across the landscape, restricting
expression of normal behaviours and denying animals'
access to basic needs such as food, water and shelter.

3/1/20XX SAMPLE FOOTER TEXT 13

 How air pollution harms food supply and quality?

Air pollution reduces both the yield and nutritional quality of crop plants, with
important implications for consumers and producers, particularly the poor.
Air pollution is also a major source of heavy metals that can accumulate at
toxic levels in the edible portion of crops.

Air pollution and climate change affect the global food system in such a way
that those who suffer from hunger and under nutrition are also the most
vulnerable to these added threats. In order to end hunger.

4- EFFECTS ON AQUATIC LIFE:
Eutrophication , the process of accumulation of nutrients,
including nitrogen, in water bodies, often results from
air pollution. 
Nutrient overloads in aquatic ecosystems can cause algae
blooms and ultimately a loss of oxygen, and of life.

 Monitoring air quality for the largest Steel Manufacturing Industry,
TATA STEEL

OUR CLIENT:
TATA Steel is one of the world’s leading Steel producing industries
with its presence in hundreds of countries. It ranked as the World’s No.1
Steel company in Dow Jones Sustainability Index 2018. It has a
revenue of US$32 billion in 2022, with its extensive presence
in steel-related industries as well as the Stock Market. It currently
has over 65,000 employees based across the globe. It also owns a
number of steel plants across India, and the Jamshedpur steel plant
is one of the largest of its manufacturing units.

3/1/20XX SAMPLE FOOTER TEXT 18

THE CHALLENGE:
In a manufacturing unit of a steel plant, it is common to observe
a huge amount of suspended Particulate matter in the air
because of constant casting, rolling, and processing. Since
Tata Steel’s Jamshedpur manufacturing unit is situated close to
the nearby villages, it was important for the company to monitor
the levels of PM2.5, PM 10, SO2, and other gaseous pollutants.
It was also in their interest that pollution be mitigated for meeting
the regulation as per the CPCB guidelines. For achieving such,
they needed an Air Quality monitoring system that could
accurately detect the various pollution levels, and subsequently,
automate the process of purifying it. They also wanted to ensure
the locals of clean air, and that toxic gases and particulate matter
suspension were limited from the Steel Plants

3/1/20XX SAMPLE FOOTER TEXT 19

 THE SOLUTION:
Oizom with Devic Earth offered Polludrone Smart to
the TATA Steel Jamshedpur unit to monitor the dust
and toxic gaseous emitting from the plant to the
surrounding city. It can be customized to detect and
monitor the wind speed and wind direction so that
TATA steel can keep track of the direction of the dust
and harmful gases. Polludrone also comes equipped
with Data analysing and Visualization software - Envizom.
It keeps track of the historical data and trends of the
air pollutants. Polludrone can also automate the
purification system by switching it on/off when such
air quality rises beyond a pre-defined threshold limit.

 “We have tested air
THE RESULT: quality monitors from
across South Asia,
The TATA Steel Jamshedpur is now capable of real-time Europe and the US.
Our best pick for
monitoring the levels of PM and gaseous levels and the Outdoor Air quality
direction from which it is originating around the steel plants. monitor is Oizom”
Oizom’s smart, robust and accurate air quality monitoring
- Mr. Srikanth Sola,
system has assisted the company in reassuring the -Devic Earth

residents of the nearby city of safe breathing conditions.

With threshold-based alerts, Polludrone equipped with Relay,
triggers the Devic Earth’s Pure Skies purifying system to
switch ON or OFF based on the air quality detected.
Polludrone’s integration with Devic Earth’s air purifying system
has enabled TATA Steel in reducing its pollution levels as per
the CPCB guidelines

“AWARENESS ABOUT THE AIR POLLUTION”
Air pollution adds to ozone layer depletion,
global warming and climate change . Since
air is present everywhere, pollution can
damage delicate ecosystems in forests.
We must take effective
steps to reduce air
Pollution.
