Nārāyanganj's air quality reflects the flat Bangladesh Dhaka metropolitan southeastern industrial corridor on the Shitalakshya River, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the extraordinary jute processing, textile dyeing, and river port corridor generating elevated PM2.5 and chemical VOCs. The dry winter northeast monsoon concentrates emissions extensively, while the flat delta terrain's minimal dispersal maintains Narayanganj among Bangladesh's most distinctively industrial jute and textile-defined urban environments throughout the dry season.

When is air pollution at its worst in Nārāyanganj?

In Nārāyanganj, traffic on the surrounding roads, petrochemical and refining operations, together with textile and manufacturing operations are the main local sources, with conditions worsening when windblown dust events occur. These wind events can carry dust in from the surrounding arid landscape. Rainfall through the monsoon usually keeps levels in check.

Are air quality levels in Nārāyanganj based on measurements or forecasts?

It is forecasts derived by downscaling forecasts provided by EU’s Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) by taking into account local conditions such as traffic patterns. CAMS bases its forecast on satellite measurements of particles and chemical compounds in the atmosphere. Airmine’s services were developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team.
