Abstract

The air quality in the capital of the Kyrgyz Republic Bishkek was analyzed. The study established that there is a problem of pollution, especially in the autumn-winter period. It was shown that the main sources of emissions into the air are thermal power plants, heating in the private sector and urban transport. Priority pollutants have been identified – these are particles 2,5 and 10 microns (PM2,5 and PM10) in size. It was concluded that it is necessary to develop a modern system for monitoring harmful substances in the air. The methodology for conducting comprehensive studies to obtain a large amount of information on priority components and sources of pollution was discussed. Examples of the air monitoring in the urban environment of Bishkek were provided. The Kyrgyz-Russian Slavic University has been testing a technique for automatic monitoring of atmospheric air in the urban environment and on highways. The article discussed the use of software developed by the university. This software complements the capabilities of the Russian “Ecologist” program and can be used in any region of the Kyrgyz Republic.
