Abstract: Earth's atmosphere is mainly made up of two gases, nitrogen and oxygen, which together comprise 99% of gases therein. The other gases include the remaining 1% of the atmosphere. Amongst these are the five major air pollutants (e.g., ground-level ozone, airborne particles or aerosols, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide). Excess of these pollutants in the atmosphere is risky to human health. They are the main ingredients of smog. Air quality is measured with the air quality index. An AQI under 50 is considered as good air quality; however, as the AQI number increases, it becomes a concern for human health. To find a non-conventional solution to air pollution problem, it has been proposed to do Yagya, a fire process with three different samidhas, namely mango wood, bargad wood, and dry cow dung sticks and study their relative emissions and ability to reduce the aerosols PM 2.5 and PM 10. In this paper, the researcher has measured the PM levels (PM 2.5 and PM 10) and carbon dioxide CO2 along with AQI, temperature, and humidity.
