Özet
Air pollution is caused by many reasons such as using low calorie and high sulfur content coal for heating, increasing number of vehicles which produce exhaust and having industrial activities that do not contain chimney filtration and treatment plant. Even though there are many matters that cause air pollution, particulate matter has an enormous affect on human health. Because of the harmful effects of PM, it should be controlled very carefully. In Turkey, PM10 measurements are performed and controlled. The aim of this study is to develop new approach for risk assessment that considers those measurements. In the study, severity scale is determined with the help of Fine-Kinney Risk Assessment method with the integration of PM10 values for each measurement value. Environmental affect and Environmental Quality Ratio (EOR) are calculated for measurement stations. In addition, EOR and process capability () are integrated in this article. Developed approach is implemented for the values of Ankara, which is considered as polluted city, and clean cities of Turkey according to 2017 data in Turkey and results are discussed.
