Abstract

This work is a pilot study in Aurangabad, Maharashtra, to determine the seasonal concentration of fine particulate matter PM2.5 with an aerodynamic diameter of less than 10µm between 2016 to 2018. The Seasonal concentration of PM2.5 and PM10 was recorded at fifteen representative sites throughout the city. The investigation revealed that the annual average concentration of the particulate matter at the CIDCO bus stop is high, with PM2.5 ranging from 74.64 µg/m3 to 88.75 µg/m3, while PM10 was ranging from 153.36 µg/m3 to 535.52 µg/m3, according to the central pollution control board standards respectively.
