Air pollution concentrations were estimated the dispersion models as well as the emissions inventories compiled in AirQUIS for Dhaka and Chittagong. Meteorological data were generated from TAPM. Concentration plots for PM10, PM2.5 and SO2 and NO2 were presented for both cities. A scenario for 2020 was developed based on a combination of projected mitigation measures and sector growth based on GDP and population growth rates. In addition, health impacts were assessed based on methodologies from previous studies performed in Asia.
Results show that in general the PM2.5 and PM10 concentration distributions are closely linked to the emissions from brick kilns in the Dhaka area, while in Chittagong the impacts are more spread between the urban sources, brick, and industry and traffic sources. Results also show that PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations exceeds annual limit values, and that the dry season is most critical when it comes to high concentrations of PM10 and PM2.5.

Bangladesh Air Pollution Management (BAPMAN) er et kapasitetsbyggingsprosjekt finansiert av NORAD hvor NILU bidrar med nødvendige verktøy og kompetansebygging til Clean Air and Sustainable Environment (CASE) programmet ved Miljøverndepartementet (DoE) i Bangladesh. Denne rapporten presenterer en oversikt over mulige helseeffekter fra luftforurensning (PM10) i Dhaka så vel som fremtidige strategier og mulige strategier for å redusere disse helseeffektene.
