Air pollution has an
important place among today's environmental problems. People can survive for a
few days without food and drink. However, they can only live for a few minutes
without air. The importance of the air is understood when the quality of the
air has decreased. Urbanization and industry are an important factor in the air
pollution. Especially fossil fuels that are used for warming in the cities
during the winter months spread many pollutants to the atmosphere. These
pollutants can be mixed in the atmosphere with dry and wet deposition to soil
and surface waters. By wet accumulation; rain, snow and fog play an important
role. In the case of snowfall, it is effective that snowflakes accumulate
pollution in the atmosphere because the snow particles are bigger than the
other rainfall. In this study, dissolved oxygen, NO3, turbidity,
conductivity and pH analyzes were carried out in the snow water samples taken
from 3 points (A, B and C points) in Seyitler Village and from 1 point in city
center (D point). The results show a ranking as A> C> D for dissolved
oxygen, B> A> C> D for dissolved oxygen, D> B> A> C for
conductivity, D> B> C>A for turbidity and A> B> C> D
sequence. When the results belonging to this study are examined, it is possible
to say that in the region, the fly ash formed as a result of combustion of coal
for heating and the flue gas together are absorbed by the atmospheric air and
the snow particles.
