Air pollution is a serius environmental problem and may bring health impact to human. This paper will focus on the particulate matter with a diameter less than 10μm (PM10). This paper are carried out to determine the concentration of particulate matter (PM10) at the atmosphere, to determine the source of pollutant that contribute to the fluctuation of PM10 concentration and to study the effects of PM10 to human health, environment, economy and also social life. Using E-sampler, airborne particulate matter has been collected and analysed. This project was carried out at Chuping, Perlis. Meteorological Chuping Department were selected as a monitoring station and five kilometre radius from station are selected as a surveying area for determine source and the effects of the pollutant.Monitoring have been carried out for 24 hours, continuosly for one week to measure the concentration of PM10 in atmosphera. From the study, the highest concentration of PM10 are on second day which is 0.0375mg/m³ and the lowest concentration of PM10 are on day six which is 0.0022 mg/m³. As a conclusion,from the study, motor vehicle, road site and also construction work contributes the most of PM10 in atmosphere in Perlis. 2013-02-15T07:59:48Z 2013-02-15T07:59:48Z 2011-05 Learning Object http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/23557 en Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) School of Environmental Engineering
