CARBON MONOXIDE EMISSIONS MONITORING during COVID-19 PANDEMIC in JAKARTA

ABSTRACT

Jakarta has been known as the capital city, has been dealing with air pollution since many years ago. The main contributor of air pollution in Jakarta is due to large population, and high numbers of transportation, of which still running on diesel fuels, emitting far higher levels of pollutants. Carbon monoxide pollution is associate with number of transportations run in the city. Mobility index provided by Facebook Data for Good has managed to identify people's movement during COVID-19 period (stay put and change in movement matrix's). Therefore, this study aims to analyze the dynamic of carbon monoxide emissions during the COVID-19 pandemic in Jakarta. The results showed the distribution of CO emission in Jakarta and its mobility index of each quarter showed a similar pattern. The quarter 2 of 2020) is presented the lowest CO emission distribution value compared to the other five quarters, ranging from 0.0309-0.0334 mol/m2. The low value of CO emission distribution during that period was related to the low community mobility index (index of go) in the same period. While in the next quarter which is quarter 3 2020, the CO emission was relatively increased ranging from 0.031-0.037 mol/m2, which associated with the rise of mobility index stay of go value. Therefore, in this study, there is a relationship between the distribution of CO emission with the mobility index provided by Facebook. © ACRS 2021.All right reserved.
