Urban air pollution in Craiova, Dolj County, was studied to understand its impact on health. The researchers looked at sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, ammonia, and particulate matter levels. They found that pollution with sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and ammonia decreased after European regulations were implemented, but particulate matter levels remained high. Overall, the air quality in Craiova still poses a significant risk for diseases related to air pollution.
