Abstract
The article summarizes the results of research, whose purpose
was to characterize the behavior of gases NO2, CO, CO2
present in the city of Villavicencio Meta Colombia. The
methodology used was experimental type whose data were
processed using descriptive statistical techniques. The results
indicated that the gases under study are in the permissible
levels by current legal regulations and recommended
continued efforts to mitigate the agentsair pollutants in the
city.
Keywords: Air Quality, CO, CO2, Instrumentation,
Descriptive Statistics, Sustainability.
I. INTRODUCTION
Colombia ranks second among the 12 different mega nations,
with an area of 0.7% of the surface of the planet, with 10% of
the flora and fauna of the Earth, according to the Research
Institute of Biological Resources Alexander von Humboldt
likewise alarms are on due to high pollution since it is a
problem that is increasing, according to (wHO) Colombia is
the second country in Latin America with major
environmental problems.
Global warming is a problem that currently increases due to
the different sources of contamination, this is produced one of
the greatest environmental problems of air pollution, which
occurs naturally and / or artificially. Starting from this point, it
is important to know in depth each of the variables and factors
involved in their development.
The direct consequences that occur in humans due to high
levels of air pollution on health are observed. According to
official figures, worldwide 3.8 million people die every year
from diseases related to pollution of the air, which are
pneumonia (27%), stroke (18%), ischemic heart disease (27%),
obstructive lung disease occur chronic (20%) and lung cancer
(8%) (World Health Organization, 2018).
According to the information above, they are notable attempts
to lessen the overall impact of air pollution in Colombia.
However, these attempts are premature and insufficient, it is
necessary to implement better technologies in the major
generating sources of pollution such as industry and transport,
able to consolidate a culture for the care of the air is another
important aspect that can lead to lower economic indices and
current health of the country.
Likewise, the purpose of the investigation focused enn
determine levels of gaseous pollutants CO, NO2, CO2, and
O3 present in villavicención, Meta Colombia.
II. BACKGROUND
Among the different models to analyze data sets referring to
modeling variables contamination of the air for a case study
for the city of Medellin (Colombia), where regression models
uses of the soil worked in the estimate is Local monthly
concentration of pm10, their results were related to indicate
the importance of the proper choice of the explanatory
variables and access to them for the efficiency of the
mathematical model is optimal, likewise, the direct correlation
is denoted the closeness between the main roads and traffic
density with the concentration of the pollutant PM10 a
measurement point [1],statement is consistent with the one in
the city of Cali (Colombia) which states that the dynamics of
vehicular traffic is primarily responsible for the pollution of
air particulate matter PM10, an approach that was developed
by using a Spline method modeling the daily behavior of said
contaminant [2].
Likewise, in another study conducted in the same city, exactly
in the districts 7 and 8, where he worked with a logistic
regression model to assess environmental conditions and
pollution under which the risk of presence of contamination
Total Suspended Particles (PST) is higher. Worked as
variables total suspended particles (TSP) and PM10
particulate material where, from the results of PM10 is
possible to obtain a value for PST that can serve as reference
for other studies. Moreover, the influence of the climate
variable in the presence of pollution that ultimately supported
by the model created, you can obtain a measure of the risk of
the presence of contamination by PST in the study area is
ratified [ 3].
