Abstract Advances in manufacturing technolo-gy and increasing the number of pollutants concentration, exceeding the allowable values (100 mg/m3); thus causing changes in human bodies, and thus the development of cancer and mutations in humans. The in-crease in air pollution problems has been linked to lung function and increases in heart attacks. The overall air quality has im-proved over the last 20 years but urban areas are still a concern. Air pollution is the presence in the at-mosphere of substances (physical, chemical or biological) or combinations that may be harmful to health, safety or welfare of the population. Although it can occur by natural causes, such as volcanic eruptions, for-est fires unprovoked or activity of some liv-ing things, but most of the current pollution (the most consistent and damaging) is due to human activities, especially industrial processes and the burning of fossil fuels.
