Industrial Air Emission Pollution: Potential Sources and Sustainable Mitigation

Abstract

Air of cities especially in the developing parts of the world is turning into a serious environmental interest. The air pollution is because of a complex interaction of dispersion and emission of toxic pollutants from manufactories. Air pollution caused due to the introduction of dust particles, gases, and smoke into the atmosphere exceeds the air quality levels. Air pollutants are the precursor of photochemical smog and acid rain that causes the asthmatic problems leading into serious illness of lung cancer, depletes the stratospheric ozone, and contributes in global warming. In the present industrial economy era, air pollution is an unavoidable product that cannot be completely removed but stern actions can reduce it. Pollution can be reduced through collective as well as individual contributions. There are multiple sources of air pollution, which are industries, fossil fuels, agro waste, and vehicular emissions. Industrial processes upgradation, energy efficiency, agricultural waste burning control, and fuel conversion are important aspects to reducing pollutants which create the industrial air pollution. Mitigations are necessary to reduce the threat of air pollution using the various applicable technologies like CO2 sequestering, industrial energy efficiency, improving the combustion processes of the vehicular engines, and reducing the gas production from agriculture cultivations.

Pressure Drop and Particle Collection Efficiency of Multivortex Separator

“…The collection efficiency can be estimated by the deposition efficiency of dispersed particles of various sizes on the wall surfaces of all separation elements and the case of the multivortex separator from the following formula: (3) where is the number of particles at the outlet of the multivortex separator;…”

“…Environmental protection from industrial gas emissions is currently one of the crucial issues all over the world. The increasing volume of gas emissions from different industrial enterprises coupled with new climate rhetoric leads to stricter requirements for the efficiency of gas cleaning from particles smaller than ten microns, which negatively affects human health [1][2][3][4]. Furthermore, the small size of particles excludes or limits traditional separation methods -gravitational, inertial, and electrostatic [5,6].…”

Environmental governance investment and Air Quality: Based on China’s provincial panel data

“…However, air quality is not only related to gas emissions, but also to solid waste production, the indirect determinants of air pollution have also received increased attention. For example, solid, gases and liquid pollutants from industrial production and human actions, like fume and dust (Abdelkader et al, 2015), industrial solid pollutants (Munsif et al, 2021), exhaust gas (Lozhkin et al, 2018), and wastewater contaminants (Devda et al, 2021), have toxicological impacts on the environment. So, we use these related indicators as explanatory variables of air quality.…”

Machine Learning for Determining Interactions between Air Pollutants and Environmental Parameters in Three Cities of Iran

“…As a result of the increasing demand for energy in the previous 50 years, air pollution has expanded dramatically, with a threatening acceleration that cannot be eliminated [1][2][3][4]. Approximately 91% of the population of the world lives in regions with high levels of air pollution [5], which contributes to the deaths of seven million people annually [6].…”
