What is the Air Quality in Jabodetabek This Evening? (Monday, October 30, 2023)

Bekasi's air quality this afternoon is the worst in the Jabodetabek area, based on data from the Ministry of Environment and Forestry's (KLHK) Air Pollutant Standard Index (ISPU). Bekasi's air quality index was recorded at 138 on Monday, October 30, 2023, at 5:00 PM WIB.

East Jakarta follows with an air quality index of 104, and Tangerang is third with a score of 103.

For information, KLHK categorizes air quality based on the following Air Pollutant Standard Index (ISPU) ranges:

* 0-50: Good
* 51-100: Moderate
* 101-200: Unhealthy
* 201-300: Very Unhealthy
* 300+: Hazardous

The air quality index (ISPU) is monitored at 72 stations spread across 31 provinces. The air quality index calculation uses measurements of air pollutant parameters, including particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10), sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), ozone (O3), and hydrocarbons (HC).

This indicates that cities in Jabodetabek, such as Bekasi, East Jakarta, and Tangerang, have unhealthy air quality.

KLHK advises that individuals in areas with unhealthy air quality should reduce prolonged outdoor physical activity. In areas with moderate air quality, everyone can still engage in outdoor activities except for sensitive groups.

Those living in areas with very unhealthy and hazardous air quality should avoid all outdoor activities.
