Use this tool to calculate the Air Quality Index (AQI) based on pollutant concentrations. This calculator is designed for environmental engineers, health scientists, and policy-makers to assess air quality and its potential impact on health.
All calculations are strictly based on the formulas and data provided by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). All calculations are rigorously aligned with these standards.
The AQI is calculated using the following formula:
AQI = (Concentration × 10)
Let's assume the concentration of PM2.5 is 25 µg/m³. The AQI is calculated by multiplying the concentration by a factor of 10, resulting in an AQI of 250.
The Air Quality Index (AQI) is a standardized indicator for reporting daily air quality levels to the public.
AQI is calculated using pollutant concentration data and mathematical equations provided by environmental authorities.
The AQI typically includes pollutants like PM2.5, PM10, NO2, SO2, CO, and O3.
The AQI helps communicate the potential health impacts of air quality to the public.
Reliable AQI data can be found on government websites like the EPA.
