Pollution local

In ambient air, including dusts, poUen, and local pollutants. [Pg.477]

Control Technique Guidelines (CTG) EPA documents designed to assist state and local pollution authorities to achieve and maintain air quality standards for certain sources (e.g., organic emissions from solvent metal cleaning known as degreasing) through reasonably available control technologies (RACT). [Pg.526]

It is important to note that in some installations where local pollution regulations would not permit venting a condensible blowdown tank in toxic service to the atmosphere, a pressure drum or sphere, vented to a flare, may be necessary. [Pg.239]

According to EPA (1974), pesticides such as endosulfan should be destroyed at high temperature in an approved incinerator with a hydrochloric acid scrubber, if available. Any sludges or solid residues generated from this process are to be disposed of in a manner approved by all applicable federal, state, and local pollution control requirements. EPA strongly recommends that if incineration of excess pesticides is not possible, organic pesticides should be buried in a designated landfill site. [Pg.218]

Irrespective of the fuel supply chain, alternative fuels have generally lower tailpipe emissions in terms of local pollutants (such as NO, CO, S02, VOC and particle emissions) than conventional gasoline and diesel engines for instance, natural gas completely eliminates particle emissions synfuels are manufactured with very low sulphur and aromatic contents alcohol-based fuels have high octane numbers, which... [Pg.202]

Although in principle stationary and transport-specific energy chains can be analysed, here the assessment of the latter is explained in more detail, and is then referred to as well-to-wheel (WTW) analysis. The primary focus of WTW analysis in Europe is on global environmental impact, i.e., greenhouse-gas emissions expressed as C02-equivalents. Other issues of interest are (a) primary energy demand (which equals resource utilisation), (b) local pollutant emissions and (c) full energy or fuel supply costs. Well-to-wheel analysis covers the entire fuel supply chain from feedstock extraction, feedstock transportation, fuel manufacturing and fuel distribution to fuel use in a vehicle. [Pg.204]

If hydrogen is produced via solar photovoltaic (PV)-powered water electrolysis, it would be possible, in principle, to provide energy on a global scale, with essentially no greenhouse gas emission and veiy low local pollution. [Pg.129]

The dry product is primarily collected in cyclone collectors (a few bag houses still remain), sieved, and finally packaged in moisture barrier containers. The exit air from the dryer often has to be treated to meet local pollution control laws. While many of the older dryers use gas incineration, as energy costs have increased these incineration systems have become quite costly to operate. New dryer installations use scrubbing systems (e.g., aqueous/chemical sprays) to remove entrained solids and gaseous volatile flavors. [Pg.57]

Worldwide pollutant of the at- mosphere. concentrated in urban areas from the combustion of tetraethyl lead in gasoline local pollutant "j from mines some poisoning from lead-based paint pigments. [Pg.486]

Carbon Synthesis of all organic molecules and ofbiogenetic carbonates. Carbon monoxide is slightly toxic to plants and very toxic to mammals ChP Is very toxic to all organisms. Carbon dioxide and CO are global pollutants from burning fossil fuels ChT is a local pollutant of rivers near mines. [Pg.1006]

The data of POPs monitoring showed us general overview of the status of local pollution in Japan, although there seems to be some information from which regional/global scale information might be inferred. [Pg.15]

Local pollution has caused extensive forest destruction in Austria, Germany, Hungary, Norway, Poland and Sweden. Industrial operations along the northern border of Czechoslovakia have caused extensive forest destruction. [Pg.261]

Deposition of regional pollutants subjects forests to different perturbations than local- pollutants because the doses are less. Rather than severe tree morbidity or mortality with dramatic symptoms, regional pollutants subtly change tree metabolism and ecosystem processes. Smith (14) provided a comprehensive review of subtle air pollution forest stress. [Pg.262]

Reduce local pollutants that are a result of fires... [Pg.696]

Someday we will run out of fossil fuels and perhaps more importantly, someday the environmental impact of these fuels will catch up with us. Global warming is a real threat, but fossil fuel combustion [burning] also causes local pollution. We need to stop burning things as much as possible ... [Pg.10]
