A STUDY OF DUST POLLUTION AROUND OPEN CAST COAL MINES OF IB VALLEY AREA, BRAJARAJNAGAR

Abstract

To find out dust trapping tree species to open cast coal mines dust pollution, Ficus releginsa, Ficus benghalensis, Psidium guyava, Ziziphus mauritiana and Calotropis procera plants were selected in the IB valley area. Dust fall on the leaves were observed for a period of one year from June 2003 to May 2004. From the result, it is observed that Psidium guyava has the maximum dust trapping efficiency followed by Ficus benghalensis. At the same time Ziziphus mauritina has shown the minimum dust trapping efficiency.
