Air pollution can be defined as the presence of harmful substances present in the atmosphere more than the natural levels. Based on the source of emission they are classified into primary pollutant and secondary pollutant.

The pollutant that is released directly from the source either by natural causes  or man made causes is known as primary pollutant.
