Environmental Design for Atmospheric Emissions - Summary

Emissions to atmosphere can be categorized according to their phase (gas, vapor, liquid and solid). Industrial emissions of major concern are  

Urban smog, acid rain, ozone layer disruption and the greenhouse effect are environmental problems caused by atmospheric emissions. 

Solid (particulate) emissions are produced from incomplete combustion of fuels, solids, drying operations, crushing and grinding operations, solids handling operations, and so on. The largest volume of emissions is from products of combustion (C02, CO, NOv, SO.v and particulates). Acid 

Remediation processes to deal with atmospheric emissions include  

Once VOCs have been minimized at source and recovery possibilities have been exhausted, then any residual VOC needs to be destroyed using
