In this work, Karabuk province Air Pollution Situation was studied and the causes of air pollution in Karabuk were investigated in this regard. Daily pollutant values Karabuk air pollution over the last 5 years have been examined This value comparison is made in Turkey and has been checked for conformity with European standards. In addition, the effects of the parameters examined on human health and socioeconomic values were examined. When Karabuk is considered as a city, it has reached to high levels in the iron and steel industry in our country and the main air problem is also due to this reason. However, thanks to the advanced chimney and remediation systems that have been created in recent years, these problems have begun to come from the upper level. These sector investments are expected to increase further in the coming years due to the fact that the main source of livelihood in the people living in the region is industrial workmanship. This percentage should be considered and should be carefully investigated for sectoral air pollution.
