The paper presents Wireless sensor network system used to monitor and control the air quality in Nagpur city. Environmental air pollution monitoring system that measures, RSPM (Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter), NOx, and SO2 are proposed. The traditional air quality monitoring system, controlled by the Pollution Control Department, is extremely expensive. Analytical measuring equipment is costly, time and power consuming, and can seldom be used for air quality reporting in real time.
