Particulate Matters, or Does it? Phase II
| Division: | Earth & Environmental Sciences | | Category: | Intermediate | | Region: | | | City: | , | | School: | | | Abstract: | This project studied the effectiveness of two pollution barriers (man-made and natural) and buffer zoning in reducing particulate pollution levels. Particulate levels were measured using home-designed equipment. Man-made barriers were found to have the highest particulate reduction rate. Moving a distance of 5-10m from pollution sources also reduced particulates effectively. |
