The mobile laboratory and experts of the State Ecology Committee were involved in this process, and analyzes were carried out based on samples.
The results of the obtained sample showed that point 2 (Yunusabad district) exceeded the established standard for total dust.
According to experts, the lack of precipitation for a long time, weak winds, and temperature inversion allowed the atmospheric air to stagnate. As a result, the accumulation of pollutants was observed.
On the night of October 17-18, the air of Tashkent was cleared of dust due to the rain, and according to international standards, the air pollution index registered 38th place.
