Ultra ie dust around Frankfurt Airport: Strain endangers health!

The burden of ultra -ie dust around Frankfurt Airport ensures concerned faces among the residents. Preliminary measurements carried out in the first eight months of the year show that the values in Offenbach were moderate. This emerges from the current data of the State Office for Nature Conservation, Environment and Geology (HLNUG).

The measuring station in the weather park, strategically placed under two airport lines, has illustrated that the aircraft in the air is not the main source of the ultra -dust. Rather, it is the processes at the airport itself, such as starting, landing and driving the aircraft on the ground, which make up the largest proportion of this health -threatening air pollution.

cause of the stress

The southern parts of Frankfurt are particularly hard hit. Higher values of the ultra -icing dust were found here. The wind plays a crucial role by continuing to blow the fine particles into the area. This realization clearly shows that the air pollution caused by air traffic not only depends on the moment of overflow, but also on the activities on the ground.

ultra -ie dust is a serious health risk. While coarser fine dust often stays in the upper airways, these tiny particles can penetrate deep into the lungs and get into the bloodstream. HLNUG has therefore initiated a comprehensive examination of the health risks of ultra-dust in the entire Rhine-Main area. Initial results can be expected in a few years and could show far -reaching health consequences for the affected population.

The problem of this air pollution has already led to discussions and concerns at the airport and in adjacent residential areas. More and more people are concerned about the emissions that arise during air traffic and their long -term effects on health. The current situation requires urgent attention and possibly also measures to reduce the stress for residents. A review of the airport operations could be necessary to contain the ultra-dust pollution and to develop new strategies to improve air quality.

The data and its medical importance throw a critical light on environmental policy in the region. The authorities now face the challenge of not only monitoring air quality, but also actively taking measures to guarantee an improvement in the living conditions of the residents.
