Abstract (EN): Research in environmental engineering is an activity that benefits and develops preventive intervention technologies, abatement and rehabilitation so as to reduce or eliminate the adverse effects of pollution and decrease the intensity of use of natural resources, minimizing the negative impacts of human activity on the environment. This work contributes to an assessment of air quality in the Portuguese national territory. A review was made of the main air pollutants, emission sources, occurrence, and harmful effects on human health.
