Pulheim's air quality reflects the Cologne metropolitan area's western suburban corridor, with vehicle traffic on the A57 motorway and the surrounding residential and commercial character contributing local sources. The flat Rhine-Erft plain provides reasonable dispersal on most days, while the proximity to the Hambach lignite complex elevates regional background SO₂ and PM2.5 and the broader Cologne metropolitan area's industrial and traffic background influences Pulheim's readings throughout the year.
