Abstract

This research paper delves into the pressing issue of urban air pollution in the Delhi/NCR region and proposes innovative solutions from the perspective of vertical environmental engineering and technology. With the rapid urbanization and industrialization in this region, air pollution has reached alarming levels, posing significant health risks and environmental challenges. The paper begins by analysing the current state of air pollution in Delhi/NCR, highlighting the major sources and contributors to poor air quality. It then explores various innovative solutions that can be implemented to mitigate this issue effectively. These solutions include advanced air purification technologies, vertical gardens and green walls, sustainable transportation systems, smart urban planning strategies, and the integration of renewable energy sources. Furthermore, the paper discusses the feasibility, cost-effectiveness, and environmental impact of these innovative solutions, emphasizing the need for interdisciplinary collaboration and stakeholder engagement. By adopting a holistic approach that combines engineering, technology, and environmental science, this research aims to provide actionable insights and recommendations for policymakers, urban planners, and environmental agencies to combat urban air pollution in the Delhi/NCR region and create a healthier and more sustainable urban environment.
