Abstract

In this paper we have applied the chemometrical characterization of polluted matter particulate. In this work, we took some samples from the Metropolitan Área of Monterrey, the metals analyzed were: Cd, Cu, Cr, Fe, Pb, Mg, Mn, K and Zn, the sample were digested by microwave and their concentrations were analyzed by AAS-flame. After, the metals concentration were analyzed by factors analysis and we could determinate 4 factors and their origin of pollution; the cluster analysis show us the same 3 important groups corroborating with the analysis factor results. One was that the possible sources of emission of the particulate material are industrial activities like the metal-mechanical industry, of paintings and pigments; the public erosion of the ground and works.
