Major Air Pollutants
Air pollution has been a major cause of concern for a long time now and there one major aspect of it that goes unnoticed is the air pollution due to construction. 30% of the air pollution prevalent in Delhi is caused due to construction pollution i.e. particulate matter – pm2.5, pm10 dust particles produced from the construction sites.
PM
Fine particles suspended in the air, especially at the sites
Noise
Machinery on the sites creates noise that can cause ear injury.
CO
It is produced from the combustion of carbon-based fuels.
VOCs
Activities like welding emits organic compounds & cause illness
NOx
Burning of fuels used in machinery can release NOx into the air.
VOCs
Exposures can cause dizziness, headaches, and other discomforts.
SOx
Shifting to alternative fuels can decrease SOx emissions.
NOx
Causes respiratory problems and is a major cause of acid rain.
PM
It can cause respiratory and cardiovascular problems.
CO
It can cause nausea, dizziness, headaches, and even death at very high levels.
Who are at Risk?
The workers working on the C&D site are affected the most by air pollution. Other than them, people living nearby these areas are affected by both indoor and outdoor air pollution caused by C&D emissions near their homes. These include:
People at the site
Construction workers
They are most exposed to various pollution sources
Construction Inspector
They can experience short-term health effects.
Surveyor
Eye & respiratory tract irritations, & aggravation in asthma.
Civil Engineer
Exposure can impact attentiveness.
Nearby Residential Areas
Children
Their airways are narrower, resulting in more obstructions.
Pregnant ladies
PM exposure can cause preterm labor, low-weight deliveries, etc.
Old people
Aggravates COPD, asthma, and other disorders among old age people.
People with health issues
Their conditions might worsen and harm organs such as the kidneys, lungs, etc.
Guidelines for C&D sites as per the CAQM
The government of India recognized the problem and has come up with a solution for dust mitigation. The Ministry of Environment, Forest, and Climate Change recently issued a notice regarding the construction pollution at the project sites in Delhi NCR and other regions that come under the Commission for Air Quality and Management (CAQM).
Prana Air Ambient Air Quality Monitors help construction companies monitor air quality and ensure worker safety. Accurate readings of different air quality parameters, including temperature, allow for proactive measures to mitigate air pollution and improve overall air quality on site.
