| 總結: | Air pollution is the introduction of chemicals, particulate matter, or biological materials that
cause harm or discomfort to humans or other living organisms, or cause damage to the natural
environment or built environment, into the atmosphere. Air pollution can also be known as
degradation of air quality resulting from unwanted chemicals or other materials occurring in
the air. The simple way to know how polluted the air is to calculate the amounts of foreign
and/or natural substances occurring in the atmosphere that may result in adverse effects to
humans, animals, vegetation and/or materials. The objective of this study is to create a
simulation of air quality dispersion in UTHM campus by using computer aided design
mechanism such as software and calculating tools. Another objective is to compare the
concentration obtained from the end result of calculation with past studies. The air pollutant in
the scope of study is Particulate Matter (PM10). The highest reading recorded for E-Sampler
was 305µg/m
3
. It was recorded in Structure Lab sampling point while the highest expected
concentration by the Gaussian Dispersion Model was 184µg/m
for UTHM Stadium. The
recommended value for permissible exposure to particulate matter in 24 hours time is
150µg/m
3
3
according to the Recommended Malaysian Air Quality Guidelines. |
