CHAPTER 2 ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION
3.1 Introduction
Environmental pollution can be defined as “the unfavorable alteration of our surroundings”
3.1.1 Types of pollutants
1. Bio degradable pollutants-decompose rapidly by natural processes.
2. Non-degradable pollutants-do not decompose or slowly decompose in the environment.
3.1.2 Classification of Pollution
Air pollution
Waterpollution
Soil pollution
Marine pollution
Noise pollution
Thermal pollution and Nuclear hazards
3.2 AIR POLLUTION
The presence of one or more contaminants like dust, smoke, mist and odour in the atmosphere which are injurious to human beings,plants and animals.
3.2.1 Sources of air pollution
Natural pollution-volcanic eruptions, forest fires, biological decay.
Man–made activities–Thermal power-plants, agricultural activities.
3.2.2 Classification
Primary pollutant–these are those emitted directly in the atmosphere in harmful form like CO, NO.
Secondary pollutant–these may react with one another or with the basic components of air to form new pollutants.
3.2.3 Control Measures
1. Source control
Use only unleaded petrol
Use petroleum products and other fuels that have low sulphur and ash content
Plant trees along busy streets because they remove particulates and carbon monoxide and absorb noise.
Industries and waste disposal sites should be situated outside the city centre.
Use catalytic converters to help control the emissions of carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons.
2. Control measures in Industrial center Emission rates should be restricted to permissible levels Incorporation of air pollution control equipment in the design of the plant lay out.
