PM10 is a type of particulate matter found in the atmosphere and refers to dust particles with a particle size of 10 micrometers (µm) or smaller. These particles can come from natural sources (e.g. volcanic eruptions, forest fires) and human activities (e.g. industrial activities, traffic). PM10 are fine dust particles that enter the respiratory system and have direct health impacts. In particular, these small particles, which can be inhaled by the lungs, can lead to various respiratory diseases and chronic illnesses.
Regular monitoring of PM10 concentrations is important for assessing air quality and developing environmental policies. The 24-hour sampling method is used to determine daily particulate matter concentrations so that the impact of various pollution sources can be monitored throughout the day. High levels of PM10 are associated with traffic density, construction activities and other human activities, especially in cities and industrial areas. Inhalation of these particles can lead to health problems such as respiratory diseases and cardiovascular problems.
The 24-hour PM10 sampling and analysis process includes the following steps for accurate and precise determination of particulate matter concentrations:
PM10 concentrations are monitored in accordance with air quality regulation and environmental regulations. In Turkey, the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization's “Air Quality Management Regulation” and the European Union's air quality directives set specific limits for PM10. These regulations are designed to monitor particulate matter concentrations in specific regions and to prevent exceeding these limits.
Particles according to their size:
Particulate matter with a diameter of 10 μ and smaller is referred to as PM10.
