Authors(6) :-Jignesh K. Konkani, Ashish R. Chaudhari, Kuldip B. Patel, Nikunj Patel, Pratik Nisarta, Montu Motaka

A study was carried out to evaluate the Level of Carbon Monoxide in residential area of GIDC Mundra. Some locations of residential area of Mundra were selected. For that purpose reading should be taken from the locations, they were Orient Abrasives Limited (kaolin Division), Adani Wilmar Ltd., Gujarat Credo Alumina Chemicals Pvt Ltd, Oriental Carbon and Chemicals Ltd, Drof Ketal Chemicals Pvt Ltd, Mundra Plant, Adani Wilmar Limited. Samples one during Morning and one after the Evening were taken from each sampling point. The atmospheric parameters which include measurement of CO level were taken from each locations using CO level meter instrument and the value compared with (WHO) guideline. Data analysis was carried out and suitable measures should be taken out to living healthy human life which free from harmful CO gas.
