Minimizing the impacts on the health is the goal principle of the pollution abetments initiative’s run by various entities at various level and encourage by society. Preparing an effective pollution reducing strategy requires identifying the most serious or most prevalent health problems in exposed population. The location of pollution hotspots, the change in the pollution as well as the composition of the pollution are of concern.
Abstract - One of the major drawbacks of solid waste
disposal site is air pollution. Hence monitoring of air quality near the solid waste disposal sites is essential and hence predicting concentrations levels of Suspended Particulate matter (SPM) of diameter less than 10micron, SO2, NO2 is needed in order to prevent the adverse impacts on health of the workers working over there. This literature review focuses on methodologies used for determining concentration levels of pollutants that may generate air pollution and predict air quality index (AQI) values from the obtained concentrations levels of Suspended particulate matter, Sulphur dioxide, Nitrogen dioxide.
Getting an idea for minimizing the pollution focused at creatively conserving public health require more information than knowledge of the location where the odd health affects in terms of kind and predicted number of cases attributes to the pollution, may be important to satisfy and encourage the decisions that might be more expensive and requires more involvement from the society. The CPCB states that 12 parameters (Air Pollutants) are employed to measure the AQI, including NO2 (Nitrogen Dioxide), SO2 (Sulfur Dioxide), CO (Carbon Monoxide), O3 (Ozone), PM10 (Particulate Matter having diameter 10 micron or less), PM2.5 (Particulate Matter having diameter 2.5 micron or less), NH3 (Ammonia), Pb (Lead), Ni (Nickel), As ( The majority of cases, the air quality index (AQI) is based on the criterion pollutants (i.e., PM10, PM2.5, SO2, NO2, CO, and O3), however it is better to use many pollutants from the list of 12 pollutants when computing the AQI. However, the choice of pollutants is determined by the AQI objectives, the averaging period, the availability of data, the frequency of monitoring, and the measuring techniques.

1. INTRODUCTION Air pollution can also be the reason for different illness, allergies and even may lead to human’s demise. These are also dangerous to towards living organisms such as animals, crop and also affect the natural environment by causing ozone depletion, climate change or built environment such as acid rain. Both the process from nature and activities of human can produce air pollution. Air pollution can also be a main harmful cause of many of illness such as breathing infections, heart diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary illness, lung cancer stroke etc. There are many evidences suggesting that air pollution consumption might be linked with IQ scores, impaired cognition, most of the problems of psychiatric disorders for instance depression. Air pollution affects human especially to cardiovascular system and respiratory system. Every responses to the pollutants depends upon the variety of pollutant that is exposed to, level of exposure, genetic and general status of the health.
A pollutant concentration all through a specific average time from air monitoring or a model is essential for computation. The rate of air pollution is represented by the mixture of Concentration and time. Epidemiological study shows the clinical effects associated with a definite dosage. Ordinarily, air quality indexes are classed into categories. Each range has a typical public health advisory, a narrative, and color codes.
Most of the population of WHO European province survive in an areas where the concentration of the air pollution has attained certain level that resulting on worse
