We introduce a generalized form of the Hankel transform, and study some of its properties. A partial differential equation associated with the problem of transport of a heavy pollutant (dust) from the ground level sources within the framework of the diffusion theory is treated by this integral transform. The pollutant concentration is expressed in terms of a given flux of dust from the ground surface to the atmosphere. Some special cases are derived.
