Abstract

In the era of booming industry, environmental pollution has become more and more important over the years. Global warming caused by air pollution has also caused Antarctica to lose large amounts of ice in recent years and global warming has increased. In a not too distant reality, such as that of Peru, whose capital has an aging vehicle fleet with an excessive impact on the environment and air quality, it is of the utmost importance not to focus on this problem, but to focus on underdeveloped cities. with few or no seasons of low air quality, for example, in the province of Huamanga in the province of Ayacucho. Therefore, it is proposed to carry out a study that allows determining the amount of carbon monoxide (CO) in each district capital of the province of Huamanga from the beginning of the COVID 19 pandemic until 2022, as an essential requirement for 2019. This work will contribute to future remediation projects to solve various environmental problems.
