Description:
Air quality in many of the cities in India is gradually deteriorated due to various activities. One of such activities is open burning of garden biomasses in cities. This study was aimed to estimate the emissions from various types of garden biomasses namely grass, leaves, twigs and mixtures of these three in a controlled SIFT chamber. Although the particulate emission (1.51gkg^-^1) was lowest from grass, the particle size distribution indicates that the emission contains 10% of fine particulates (
