Air Pollution from Industrial Processes

Air pollution from industrial processes refers to the release of harmful substances into the atmosphere during manufacturing and production activities. Factories may emit gases like carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and volatile organic compounds, as well as particulate matter, which can harm human health and the environment. These pollutants can contribute to respiratory issues, climate change, and acid rain. Regulations aim to minimize emissions, but ongoing industrial growth and insufficient control measures can exacerbate air quality problems, affecting communities and ecosystems nearby. Understanding these impacts is crucial for advocating for cleaner technologies and better environmental policies.
