چکیده
Background and purpose: In this study, the air quality index and concentration of particles such as PM۱۰ and PM۲.۵ were investigated in Arak. Materials and Methods: To determine the concentration of PM۱۰ and PM۲.۵, ۶۰ samples were collected by laser TSI model ۸۵۲۰ in summer and winter ۲۰۱۲. The collection site was around Arak city center. Results: during the sampling period, as a matter of PM۱۰, the cleanest and the most polluted month were December and June with the average of ۳۴.۳۳ µg m-۳ and ۱۰۰.۱ µg m-۳, respectively. The concentration of PM۲.۵ was ۱۲.۹۳ and ۵۳.۱۷ µg m-۳ for December and June, respectively. Meanwhile, in terms of air quality index (AQI), in ۹۸.۳% and ۷۰% of cases, the concentrations of PM۱۰ and PM۲.۵, respectively were less than normal (AQI۱۰۰). Conclusion: The concentration of PM۱۰ in the study period was less than Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ۲۰۰۶ guideline. Meanwhile, the concentrations of PM۲.۵ in ۳۰% of air samples were greater than EPA guideline. The average PM۲.۵/PM۱۰ ratio during the sampling period was ۰.۴۱ compared to range ۰.۱۵ to ۰.۲۵ reported by EPA.کلیدواژه ها

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.
کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
