PM 2.5 refers to the atmospheric particulate matter (PM) that has a diameter of less than 2.5 micrometers. The sources of causing it are mostly from human’s activities; for example, burning fossil fuels for energy and transportation, burning corps, managing of chemical by the factory, mining and, domestic cooking or heating by not using eco-friendly sources.
