Title

Pollution Contribution from Line Sources and Carrying Capacity of the Environment at Hinkal Junction, Mysuru

Abstract

Air quality in urban areas is polluted due to vehicular and industrial emissions which may cause a negative impact on human health. This paper focuses on traffic density with its composition in Hinkal Junction, Mysuru and identification of nitrogen oxides (NOX), carbon monoxide (CO), particulate matters (PM), carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrocarbon (HC) pollution load from two-wheeler (2W), three-wheeler (3W), light duty vehicle (LDV) and high duty vehicle (HDV) and their dispersion over the study area with the help of various meteorological factors. Windrose plot represents a predominant wind was blowing from East to West direction and from West-South-West towards East-North-East direction. The traffic density studies showed a maximum traffic density during 08:00-10:00 hrs and 18:00-20:00 hrs, with Emission Factors (EFs) for CO2 varying from 300 – 600 g/mi followed by CO and HC from 5–12 g/mi and 1–3 g/mi, respectively. Traffic distribution was dominated by 2W (~61%), followed by 4W (15%), HDV (12%), LDV (8%) and 3W (4%). From EF study, it was observed that NOx was mainly contributing from HDV (74%) followed by 2W (13%), LDV (8%), 3W and 4W (2-3%). A similar observation was made for PM10 and CO2 pollutants also. However, the ventilation coefficient (VC) studies showed very low (<2000 m2/s) during morning (01:00–08:00 h) and evening/night hours (23:00–24:00 h) indicating low assimilative capacity or high pollution potential during these periods
