PM10: refers to particulate matter in the air with a diameter of less than or equal to 10 microns, which has a greater impact on human health and can easily cause respiratory diseases.

AQI: Air Quality Index is calculated based on the concentration of pollutants in the air. The higher the value, the more serious the pollution and the greater the impact on human health.

According to the standards of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, AQI between 0 and 50 is considered excellent, between 51 and 100 is considered good, between 101 and 150 is considered mildly polluted, and between 151 and 200 is considered moderate. Pollution, between 201 and 300 is considered severe pollution, and above 300 is considered serious pollution.
