Abstract

The populations are daily exposed to breathable suspended particles that turn out to be a problem in all the cities of the planet, putting at risk the quality of the air and the health of the human being, it is in response to this that the present study was developed in the area of ​​the river basin Alto Mayo, which includes the towns of Naranjos, Nueva Cajamarca, Segunda Jerusalem, Rioja and Moyobamba, places where the monitoring was carried out. The determination of the concentration of breathable suspended particles smaller than 10 microns (PM-10) and smaller than 2.5 microns (PM-2.5) was considered as objectives. The methodology used to determine the concentrations was by gravimetric method, from which it was obtained that during the sampling period (4 months), at all points the value obtained for PM-10 does not exceed the Environmental Quality Standard (ECA). ) for 24 hours of 100 uց/m3; however, the towns of Nueva Cajamarca and Moyobamba have the highest values, likewise, at all sampling points the value obtained for PM-2.5 does not exceed the ECA for 24 hours of 50 u/m3, with the towns of Nueva Cajamarca and Moyobamba who present the highest values.
