This study presents the results of eleven years of measurement of a sulfur dioxide campaign, in three places in Zenica City between January 1 2006 and December 31 2016. This Study was performed to analyze the periods of activation/deactivation of domestic heating as a source of pollution. Sulfur dioxide was measured using the British standard number 1747 (24-hour samples). Analysis of temporal variations of SO2 showed an uprising trend of pollution in the city of Zenica with a strong connection to activation/deactivation of the domestic heating period.
