Air quality solutions for Railways
Let’s embark on a journey towards cleaner, healthier railways for everyone with comprehensive air monitoring, purification, and data management solutions.
Factors affecting air quality in Railway Stations
Diesel-powered trains and crowded stations are fueling a rise in
air pollutants at railway stations.
Particulate Matter
(PM2.5 and PM10)
Dust from rail systems, and dust from maintenance activities.
Volatile Organic
Compounds (VOCs)
Emits from solvents used in maintenance, and chemical interactions.
Carbon
Monoxide (CO)
Emits from Diesel engines and incomplete combustion of fuel in trains.
Nitrogen
Oxides (NOx)
Emits from diesel-powered locomotives and engines.
Congested Stations
Crowded stations result in poor ventilation, trapping pollutants and worsening air quality.
Noise Pollution
High noise level increases the stress levels in a person and can exacerbate respiratory problems.
Diesel Emissions
Diesel engines powered trains emit various pollutants such as nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM).
DO YOU KNOW?
According to the study by the California Air Resources Board (CARB), locomotives are projected to produce Over 640 tons per year of PM2.5 and Over 29,800 tons per year of NOx in California.
Such emissions not only deteriorate air quality within the state but can also contribute to global air pollution.
Areas of Concern
Railway stations are bustling activity hubs and also pose significant air quality challenges.
Railway Stations
Train emissions and crowded conditions emit various pollutants that affect indoor and outdoor air quality.
Locomotive Cabins
Loco Pilot and other members are exposed to diesel emissions for extended periods.
Rail Tracks in Urban Areas
The passing trains suspend pollutants from tracks in residential and commercial areas.
Maintenance Yards
Train maintenance includes engines and other equipment repairs that release pollutants.
Who is at Risk?
The air quality issues at railway stations impact various groups, each facing unique risks.
Passengers
Children, older, and those with pre-existing respiratory conditions.
Loco Pilot
Prolonged exposure to pollutants trapped in the cabin.
Nearby Residents
Communities living close to railway tracks and stations.
Railway Workers
Long-term exposure while performing their duties.
