air pollution control technologies

Air pollution control technologies are methods used to reduce harmful substances in the air. Common technologies include scrubbers, which remove pollutants from industrial exhaust using liquid, and filters, which capture particles from the air. Catalytic converters in vehicles convert harmful gases into less harmful substances. Electrostatic precipitators use electric charges to eliminate particles from the air stream. Additionally, green technologies like urban trees and green spaces help improve air quality naturally. These technologies aim to protect public health and the environment by minimizing harmful air emissions from sources like factories, vehicles, and power plants.
