The Cairo Air Improvement Project done by Chemonics handled by Cairo's air quality issues by actualizing cleaner advancements in transportation and industry, combined with a creative outflows testing system.
With a city of 16 million occupants confronting genuine wellbeing dangers from lead and other particulate matter, the Government of Egypt perceived a dire and basic need to clean up Cairo's air. In organization with USAID and Chemonics, Egyptian authorities set endless supply of the biggest air contamination control exercises supported by a contributor office.
Operations at the new Awadallah smelter decrease air outflows by 99 percent.

The undertaking tended to the fundamental wellsprings of contamination vehicles, industry, and open smoldering of squanders. At first, the Cairo Air Improvement Project focused on the capital's 1.5 million vehicles. Chemonics drove this exertion by serving to draft new vehicle emanation models, planning a vehicle testing system, and opening the first vehicle emanations testing station on the African landmass. The group composed and acquired an armada of skeleton for transports that keep running on packed common gas, a clean-smoldering fuel that lessens hurtful discharges by up to 85 percent. Cairo's pilot armada of 50 compacted common gas transports gave by the venture keeps on growing.
The venture likewise expected to diminish modern wellsprings of lead, for example, industrial facilities refining lead scrap. It effectively moved Egypt's biggest lead refining organization from a thickly populated private neighborhood to a modern site outside of Cairo. The group composed a best in class office to screen discharges.
Moreover, the task propelled the first solid encompassing air quality observing program in Cairo, drawing on information from a system of 36 checking stations. At long last, the system has helped Egyptian powers execute effective open data battles for unleaded gas and vehicle tune-ups. Occupants of Cairo can in fact inhale simpler because of the Cairo Air Improvement Project.
Task Results

- 99 percent decrease in fall season air contamination scenes
- 99 percent diminishment in air outflows by Egypt's biggest lead smelter
- 65 percent decrease in lead discharged by all sources in Greater Cairo
