Abstract: One of the most important concerns facing urban regions across the world is air pollution. As a result, it's critical to monitor pollution levels and notify the public on the state of the air. An indicator called the Air Quality Index (AQI) does this by mapping the concentration of different contaminants into a single number. Because the examination of pollutant data is frequently opaque to outsiders, poor environmental control judgments may result. This has led to a need for a tamper-proof pollution management system for use by authorities, like the state and central pollution boards. To address these challenges, a model using machine learning algorithms to predict the air quality and store that information in the blockchain is proposed. Machine learning algorithms are used to categorize the air quality, and blockchain technology guarantees a permanent, tamper-proof record of all air quality data. Such a system might address the persistent issues with data dependability, immutability and trust in pollution control. The execution time of two main operations on blockchain are measured. The execution time of the put block is measured as 10 ms and the get block gets executed in 1 ms that fetches data from the blockchain ledger.
