TITLE:

IMPACTS OF ATMOSPHERIC POLLUTANTS CONCENTRATIONS AND AIR QUALITY IN THE MUNICIPALITIES OF ALAGOAS

KEY WORDS:

Air quality, atmospheric pollution, public health, SISAM.

SUMMARY:

Atmospheric pollution originates from human activities and directly impacts air quality.
In Brazil, national air quality parameters are defined by the National Environmental
Council (CONAMA), a reference for states and municipalities to develop reports and
monitor air quality. However, Alagoas lacks an air quality monitoring system via an air
quality station, and mainly studies on pollutant concentrations and air quality.
Therefore, the objective of this study is to evaluate spatially and temporally the impacts
of atmospheric pollutant concentrations on air quality in the municipalities of Alagoas.
The study used data on atmospheric pollutants (PM 2.5 , O 3 , SO 2 , NO 2 and CO) with a 6-
hour resolution obtained from the Environmental Information System Integrated to
Environmental Health (SISAM) over a period of twenty years (2000-2019) to from
environmental satellites. Preliminary results of annual concentrations were evaluated for
the years 2002 and 2018 at the spatial scale. The Eastern Alagoano mesoregion
presented concentrations higher than the limits established by CONAMA for PM 2.5 . The
coastal region of Alagoas presented a high concentration of O 3 and CO in Agreste and
Sertão also for the years 2002 and 2018. Therefore, the information presented in the
unprecedented study is not estimated data, but rather real data, as there is no body in the
State of Alagoas to carry out measurements or make air quality reports available to the
population.
