Smoke stacks

Smoke stacks, also known as chimneys, are tall structures attached to factories or power plants. They carry emissions like smoke, gases, and pollutants produced during industrial processes high into the atmosphere. Their height helps disperse these emissions over a wider area, reducing local pollution and health risks. Smoke stacks often include filters or scrubbers to reduce harmful substances released. Properly managed, they play a crucial role in controlling air quality, though their design and operation are important in minimizing environmental impact.
