Evaluation of the Level of Air Pollution by Gases and Particulates at the Edge and in the Interior of a Conservation Unit: A Case Study in the FLONA of Restinga de Cabedelo, Paraíba, Brazil
Resumo
Air pollution has become one of the biggest problems and concerns worldwide, especially in large industrial cities, where the discharges of toxic substances together with the intense and growing traffic of vehicles are largely responsible for the emission of pollutants into the atmosphere. It is known that road infrastructure generates several environmental impacts during its implementation and operation. Thus, the present study seeks to describe the air quality in and around the Restinga de Cabedelo National Forest (Flona), a conservation unit located in the State of Paraíba, prior to the improvement work with expansion of the capacity and safety of the BR-230 Highway, through the measurement of PTS, PM10, SO2 and NO2.
