4 Survey for preliminary information: During ambient air pollutants sampling, it is also necessary to collect information on qualitative and quantitative data on the local sources of air pollution, topography, population distribution, land use pattern, climatology, etc, depending upon the objectives of the survey or measurement campaign. For example, an area map to locate pollution sources and monitoring locations, sources of pollution situated at far distances, etc. and other relevant data that describe the behaviour of atmosphere for a specific pollutant to be sampled may also be required. What it includes: a) Selection of sampling procedures including procedures of analysis of samples b) Sampling locations c) Period of sampling, frequency of sampling and duration d) Auxiliary measurements (including meteorological parameters) e) Processing of data Selection of sampling procedure: There are two types of sampling continuous and time averaged in situ samplings. Continuous sampling is carried out by automatic sensors, optical or electrochemical, and spectroscopic methods which produce continuous records of concentration values. The specific time-averaged concentration data can then be obtained from continuous records. Time-averaged data can also be obtained by sampling for a short time i.e. by sampling a known volume of air for the required averaging time. Samples are then analyzed by established physical, chemical, and biological methods for the concentration values which are the effective average over the period of sampling. 1 P a g e
5 Sampling locations: Sampling locations are in general governed by factors like objectives, method of sampling and resources available. If the objective is to study health hazards and material damages, then locations should be kept close to the objects where the effects are being studied and should be kept at breathing level in the population centres, hospitals, schools, etc. For vegetation, it should be at foliage level. For background concentration, sampling location should be away from the sources of pollution. It can also be done by gridding the entire area to get statistically recommended values. The number of locations however depends upon the variability of concentration over the area under survey. A spot checking may be done to decide the location besides considering practical factors. Period of sampling, frequency and duration: Period, frequency and duration of sampling should be appropriate to the objectives of the study. It should be such that the measurable quantities are trapped in the sample at the end of the sampling. It is preferable to observe sampling period consistent with the averaging times for which air quality standards of the given pollutants are specified. Network design of monitoring: Please refer IS 5182 (Part -14): P a g e
6 The pollutants for which sampling and analytical techniques discussed are SO 2, NO x, O 3, NMHC, CO, BTX, SPM, and RSPM. In addition, methods for meteorological parameters such as wind speed, direction, temperature, solar radiation and relative humidity are also discussed along with wind rose plotting methods. The rationale for selecting these pollutants in this manual is that they are ubiquitous in urban air, widely recognized as posing a potential risk to population health and they are commonly regulated at national and international level. 3 P a g e
