An Assessment of Anticipated Pollution Index of Some Common Plants and Trees of Rohtak City of Haryana (India)

Abstract

Urban air quality around commercial and residential areas in cities has been progressively deteriorating due to gaseous pollutants released by an increasing load of vehicular on the roads resulting in adverse effects on human health. Plants due to their gas exchange have capability combat gaseous pollutants. The Phytoremediation capability and capacity of plants has been studied through the use of Anticipated Pollution Index (API) and Air pollution tolerance Index (APTI). Apart from other factors, the ecological significance of each plant has been considered for evaluating the API. The present study was undertaken for 40 plants,

An Overview on the Performance of 1,2,3-Triazole Derivatives as Corrosion Inhibitors for Metal Surfaces

“…It is well established that the organic corrosion inhibitors are more effective and less expensive than the inorganic ones [74]. In this context, 1,2,3-triazole derivatives, which were initially studied as biologically active compounds and relevant medicinal compounds [55,56,[75][76][77][78], have been reported as corrosion inhibitors for steels [79], copper, aluminum, and their alloys in corrosive media [80,81].…”

Air Quality Mapping and Urban Planning for Sustainable Urban Ecology: A Case Study of Chandigarh, India

“…Air quality and human health are directly linked to each other, which also affect the urban ecosystem. It is a critical environmental issue that affects millions of people worldwide in urban areas, and poses significant risks to human health, ecological systems, and economic development (Kampa & Castanas, 2008;Deswal & Deswal, 2012;Manisalidis et al, 2020).…”
