Abstract :
Industrial activity is one of the major sources of air pollution in urban cities. Diverse scientific techniques have been utilized to monitor and analysis the polluting agents. In the present study fuzzy set theory has been employed to determine the contribution of industrial and natural sources to the air pollution in the city of Vitoria, ES, Brazil
