SUMMARY:

Atmospheric pollution is a widely discussed topic, as it is responsible for several chemical processes, occurring in the absorption of different substances, whether in solid, liquid or gaseous state, from natural or anthropogenic sources. Chemical compounds can disperse, react with each other or with other substances present in the air. Among the biggest environmental issues in Brazil, air pollution in urban areas stands out, where the burning of fuels by motor vehicles is the main component of pollution and due to population and fleet growth. Pollution has a direct influence on air quality, which can be compromised if the substances emitted must meet the standards established by CONAMA, which has as reference the guide values recommended by the World Health Organization. as its dispersion in the medium is directly associated, meteorological variables are responsible for this dispersion or concentration of substances. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to identify the main pollutants and evaluate the air quality of the capitals of the Northeast of Brazil, for the year 2015. To verify the influence of meteorological variables on the concentration of pollutants, modeling was used computational (WRF/CHEM Model) to simulate the state of the atmosphere, as it allows quantifying the chemical species present in the air, as well as observing their dispersion and concentration process.
