Metrological Department Peshawar. The climatic condition for each period (morning, noon and<br />

after noon) of each sampling day is given in Tables 1.<br />

The average concentration of CO measured along with climatic condition at seven sampling points<br />

has been given in Tables 2.<br />

• On Saturday (Table 2) at evening (2:00pm to 4:00pm) CO was below detection limit at<br />

all the sampling point. The minimum average concentration was 0.28ppm in the morning<br />

(8:00am to 10:00 am) and maximum was recorded 2.0ppm. The average concentration at<br />

morning and noon has been recorded 0.35ppm and 1.5ppm respectively, which is very<br />

low from the permissible limit of WHO as given in Tables 2.<br />

• On Sunday the average CO level at measuring sampling points in Hayatabad is presented<br />

in Table 2. The concentration was minimum in the morning and maximum at noon that<br />

was 0.28ppm and 2.14ppm respectively. The average concentration in morning, noon and<br />

after noon was found to be 0.28ppm, 2.57ppm and 1.9ppm respectively.<br />

• At each of the sampling point the CO level on Monday; (Table 2) was below detection<br />

limit (DBL) in the morning, 1ppm in noon and a maximum of 4.0ppm at afternoon. The<br />

average concentration at noon and afternoon was 1.0ppm and 3.5ppm respectively, which<br />

is below the permissible limit.<br />

• On Tuesday, (Table 2) in all the three visits at each measuring point the CO level was<br />

found below detection limit (DBL).<br />

• The CO concentration measured on Wednesday is given in (Table 2). It is an average of<br />

0.36ppm in morning and 2.0ppm in noon and afternoon. The average level for the day<br />

was 1.45ppm.<br />

• On Thursday, (Table 2) in the morning no CO has been detected at any of the sampling<br />

point. The average level recorded at noon and afternoon is 0.21ppm and 0.49ppm<br />

respectively.<br />

• Table 2 also present the CO level measured at Friday. In morning and noon the average<br />

concentration has founded 0.35ppm and 2.5ppm respectively and was below detection<br />

limit at after noon.<br />

• On all the sampling points in the Hayatabad the CO level was not found to be higher than<br />

that of permissible limit of WHO standards, which is 9ppm for carbon monoxide. So<br />

from CO point of view the air quality around the Hayatabad is suitable for breathing.<br />

• The concentration of nitrous oxide NO recorded on the sampling points for one week has<br />

been given in the same tables described earlier for CO.<br />

• On Saturday, (Table 2) the minimum concentration in morning was 0.35ppm and<br />

maximum was 1.0ppm at after noon. The average concentration of NO at morning, noon<br />

and afternoon was recorded 0.71ppm, 0.85ppm and 1.0ppm respectively.<br />

• Table 2 presented the Sunday data. It shows minimum concentration 0.57ppm, 1.0ppm,<br />
