Study on the Dust-Retention Capacity Resulting from Greenbelt of the Main Roads in Xuchang

Abstract:

With the acceleration of urbanization, dust composed of solid particles has become one of the major air pollutants in urban areas. The dust-retention capacity and its spatial distribution of 8 greenbelt types are discussed. The results show that the dust-retention capacity of Cedrus deodara is the highest, and the total dust-retention capacity is (2.85±0.28) g/m², in contrast, only (0.48±0.04) g/m² for Ligustrum quihoui. Moreover, the dust-retention capacity of outside of 7 greenbelt types is higher than that of inside, except Osmanthus fragrans. The dust-retention capability of outside indicates an order of lower section, middle section and upper section, and an order of middle section, lower section and upper section of inside.
