Abstract:
Air pollution remains one of the most pressing environmental challenges in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. Among the major pollutants, particulate matter (PM?? and PM?.?) poses serious threats to public health, especially during the dry and hot seasons. This study investigates the potential impact of regular street and road sprinkling (watering) as a dust suppression method to improve urban air quality. Drawing from regional data, case studies in comparable climates, and Tashkent's AQI data from 2023-2024, we propose practical guidelines for implementation and estimate its efficacy in reducing harmful airborne particles.
