Abstract. The base for an integral environmental management should comprise an estimate of the influence on health, identification, evidence, registration and monitoring of the sources, types and levels of environmental pollution, an estimate of the population's exposure to the pollutants as well as the measures for the improvement of the actual situation. Increased concentrations of the nitrogen-oxides can have a negative influencs on the health of certain segments of the population. The estimation of health influence assumes identification of the environmental health factors with a great impact on health. Air pollution is an unavoidable result of the development of big cities.
This analysis comprises the data about air pollution in Belgrade caused by the burning of flammable liquids in the engines in road transport. The measurement was done in the period from 2000 to 2004 along with the estimation of the environmental degradation.
The obtained research results indicate that traffic is a constant source of air pollution caused by nitrogen-oxides in Belgrade, the inner city zone being the most endangered one.
Key Words: Nitrogen-oxides, Air Pollution, Environmental, Road Transport

PRILOG ANALIZI UGROŽENOSTI ŽIVOTNE SREDINE BEOGRADA
AZOTNIM OKSIDIMA NASTALIH U MOTORIMA DRUMSKOG TRANSPORTA
Polazna osnova integralnog upravljanja životnom sredinom uključuje identifikaciju, evidenciju, registraciju i praćenje izvora, vrste i stepena zagađenosti sredine, procenu obima izloženosti populacije štetnom delovanju polutanata, kao i preduzimanje mera radi unapređenja postojećeg stanja. Povišene koncentracije azotnih oksida u životnoj sredini mogu dovesti do porasta negativnih uticaja na zdravlje pojedinih grupa u populaciji. Procena uticaja na zdravlje je identifikacija zdravstvenih faktora životne sredine značajne na zdravlje. Aerozagađenje je neminovan pratilac razvoja velikih gradova. Zagađujuće materije prisutne u vazduhu dovode do promene kvaliteta vazduha koji je najneophodniji prirodni izvor života.
U radu je, na osnovu podataka izvršenih merenja i ispitivanja za period 2000-2004. godina, data kvantifikacija zagađenja vazduha Beograda azotnim oksidima nastalih sagorevanjem zapaljivih tečnih materija u motorima drumskog transporta, kao i ugroženost životne sredine.
Dobijeni rezultati istraživanja ukazuju da je saobraćaj stalni i dominantni izvor zagađenja vazduha azotnim oksidima u Beogradu sa centralnom zonom kao najugroženijom.
Ključne reči: azotni oksid, zagađenje vazduha, životna sredina, drumski transport
