What is Particulate Matter?


  • Particulate matter (PM) or particle pollution in the air is a mixture of airborne tiny particles and liquid droplets that consists of tiny solid fragments, liquid fragments, and fragments mixing with both solid and liquid.

  • These tiny fragments are made up of various components, such as acids, toxic exhaust, organic compounds, metals, dust, pollen, soil, or a mixture of these components.

  • Exposure to airborne particulate matter (PM) has harmful consequences on human health, the environment, and climate change.

  • Long-term PM exposure is associated with chronic respiratory, cardiovascular, and neurological diseases, including lung cancer, neurodevelopmental disorders, poor cognitive function, diabetes, and heart attack. Short-term PM exposure during pollution episodes can produce less severe effects, including temporary breathing difficulty, worsening of asthma symptoms, feeling of unwell, decreased activity level, etc.
