تحليل جغرافي لتلوث الهواء الناتج عن معامل الطابوق في ناحية السنية

الملخص EN

Air pollution is the most common type of pollution that affects a person's life due to the multiplicity of sources, the speed of its spread, and the difficulty of controlling it.

The brick factory is one of the most important sources of air pollution, so the research dealt with the geographical analysis of air pollution resulting from brick factories in Al-Saniya area.

The research touched on the study of the environmental reality of brick factories in terms of their geographical location and the characteristics of the climate elements of the site of the plants as factors affecting the concentration of air pollutants.

It also dealt with variables of brick factories in terms of their construction, the quality of their chimneys, their height and the type of fuel used in them.

The researchers worked on identifying locations to measure the concentrations of air pollutants within the research area and by means of the Global Positioning System (GPS).

It was found that the pollutant concentrations in July are the highest compared to January, and the CO2 concentrations were the most compared to other pollutants, which reached (387.8) PPM.

The nitrogen oxide (No) is the least recorded (0.13) PPM.

The research revealed poor planning in the construction of factories because of their nearness to residential and agricultural areas as well as the location of the prevailing winds in the area, and it became clear that not all factories applied the standards of environmental conservation, these are negative indicators of the establishment of brick factories in this particular area.
