Hürth's air quality faces challenges from the Cologne-Weilerswist lignite region, with the Fortuna-Garsdorf open-cast mine and the Goldenberg coal power station legacy generating elevated industrial SO₂ and PM2.5 alongside vehicle traffic on the A4 motorway. The flat Rhine-Erft plain provides reasonable dispersal on westerly days, while the lignite mining operations' legacy and the Cologne metropolitan area's regional industrial background maintain elevated readings throughout the year.
