Abstract:
Electroplating is considered to be a major polluting industry because it discharges toxic materials and heavy metals through effluent like wastewater, air emissions and solid wastes. There are many registered electroplating units in Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR). The quantities of gaseous wastes generated from these industries were estimated and the existing control and treatment techniques for these gaseous wastes were evaluated. Further, Air Quality Modeling (AQM) study was also carried out to predict the concentration of acid mist with the help of emission, characteristics of stack and meteorology. A Gaussian plume model based SCREEN View software was used to predict concentrations for two industries which showed that the acid mist emissions from stack were under the consented limits. Further, health impact survey was performed at 1km radius of the industry to study the effects of air pollution on human health. It showed that 47%, 40% and 57% workers near the electroplating industries are suffering from chest pain, eye irritation and breathlessness respectively. Clustering of electroplating industries in the MMR will improve the waste management in the region. Installation of efficient air pollution control equipment like wet scrubbers can eliminate the hazards caused due to acid mist emissions from electroplating industries.

Abstract:
The development of heavy pollution industry has a certain impact on the ecological environment. This paper combs and summarizes the environmental treatment technology of heavy pollution industry from the aspects of air pollution and water pollution. During studing the advantages and disadvantages of various environmental treatment technologies, the authors finds that there are the following problems in the development of environmental treatment technology of heavy pollution industry in China: there is a lack of long-term planning for air pollution environmental treatment; The cost of water pollution control is high and the energy consumption is large. Therefore, relevant environmental governance departments should promote the concept of sustainable development and strengthen the constraints of waste gas and sewage treatment process; Enterprises in heavy pollution industries need to learn and learn from the cutting-edge technologies of environmental governance; Social media positively guide enterprises in heavily polluting industries to protect the ecological environment through public supervision.

Abstract:
To analyze the impact of the added value of primary, secondary, and tertiary industry on public attention to air pollution in Handan, Xingtai, and Shijiazhuang, Baidu index is used to build the air pollution attention index. Taking the added value of the primary, secondary, and tertiary industry as the influencing factors, fractional grey multivariable convolution model is used to predict and analyze the public attention to air pollution in these three cities from 2020 to 2024. The results show that the secondary industry has the greatest impact on the public’s attention to air pollution compared with the primary industry and the tertiary industry. And the added value of the secondary industry with faster increase will cause a faster increase in the public’s air pollution attention from 2020 to 2024, especially in Handan. It is not only helpful to air pollution control, but also helpful in solving the public psychological problems caused by air pollution.

Abstract:
During the 1960s, Sarnia was the wealthiest city in Ontario and the one with the dirtiest air. Its economy was dominated by Chemical Valley, the city’s petrochemical industry. Chemical Valley firms and executives were civically active, donating to public causes, dominating the local chamber of commerce, and working closely with provincial and municipal officials to ensure a friendly business environment. They also maintained a monopoly on information about local air pollution levels and were not required by government to adhere to clean air regulations. However, like the rest of the chemical industry at the time, Chemical Valley was exposed to an onslaught of negative publicity, raising the threat of regulation and loss of their control over emissions data and production processes. This article illustrates how economic elites in Sarnia prevented the problematization and regulation of air pollution. In doing so, it describes the actors in the policy system and examines its recourse to suppress dissent when activists sought to raise the air pollution issue.

Abstract:
There is an upsurge in air pollution due to urbanization and industrialization across the globe. This calls for immediate action. Large exterior surfaces of high-rise buildings and civil infrastructure can be utilized to one’s advantage by applying nanocoatings that are capable of alleviating the concentration of air pollutants in the surrounding atmosphere. Few nanomaterials with their photocatalytic property can degrade some of the air pollutants such as oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and sulfur (SOx) to their respective non-harmful counterparts, thereby bringing down the concentration of actual pollutants. Most of the metropolitan cities which have high-rise buildings are the ones that have more concentration of pollutants. Therefore, these buildings can be employed for coating nanomaterials on the exterior surface of these buildings. Nano-photocatalysts can be either incorporated onto a surface as a coating or into the outer layer of the building during construction. The most commonly used semi-conductor nano-photocatalyst for this purpose is nano titanium dioxide (TiO2) or its composites, such as silica-doped TiO2. This review paper consolidates various methods of synthesizing TiO2 and its composites, their characterization, different methods of incorporating nanomaterials onto construction materials, and degradation mechanism.

Abstract:
Urban air pollution and climate are closely connected due to shared generating processes (e.g., combustion) for emissions of the driving gases and aerosols. They are also connected because the atmospheric lifecycles of common air pollutants such as CO, NOx and VOCs, and of the climatically important methane gas (CH4) and sulfate aerosols, both involve the fast photochemistry of the hydroxyl free radical (OH). Thus policies designed to address air pollution may impact climate and vice versa. We present calculations using a model coupling economics, atmospheric chemistry, climate and ecosystems to illustrate some effects of air pollution policy alone on global warming. We consider caps on emissions of NOx, CO, volatile organic carbon, and SOx both individually and combined in two ways. These caps can lower ozone causing less warming, lower sulfate aerosols yielding more warming, lower OH and thus increase CH4 giving more warming, and finally, allow more carbon uptake by ecosystems leading to less warming. Overall, these effects significantly offset each other suggesting that air pollution policy has a relatively small net effect on the global mean surface temperature and sea level rise. However, our study does not account for the effects of air pollution policies on overall demand for fossil fuels and on the choice of fuels (coal, oil, gas), nor have we considered the effects of caps on black carbon or organic carbon aerosols on climate. These effects, if included, could lead to more substantial impacts of capping pollutant emissions on global temperature and sea level than concluded here. Caps on aerosols in general could also yield impacts on other important aspects of climate beyond those addressed here, such as the regional patterns of cloudiness and precipitation.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the implementation of air pollution control at the local level within the UK. Focusing upon the local air pollution control regime (LAPC) that is regulated by local authorities under the provisions of Part One of the Environmental Protection Act 1990, the research assesses whether this system has been effective in controlling localised emissions from industrial processes. To place the research in context, it essentially evaluates the implementation of LAPC with reference to its main objectives: to reduce industrial emissions and improve local air quality, to provide greater clarity and certainty for business and to allow the public greater access to local environmental information. The methodology adopted to undertake the research was based upon grounded theory and naturalistic inquiry. As such, the research programme was structured in phases where initially, essential baseline data was collected on the LAPC system. This quantitative data provided the foundations from which more detailed qualitative work was undertaken in the field in subsequent phases of the research. This allowed the research to build towards theory utilising an emergent, yet structured research design. As the research progressed, a range of complementary methods were used to collect data about the LAPC system. Initially, the research critically evaluated the major Reports that had been written on LAPC in order to establish benchmarks from which implementation of the LAPC system could be assessed. To keep the research within defined limits, a case study approach was adopted, using Lancashire as the case study area. Under the first phase of the research a questionnaire was used to survey the process operators within the region in order to collect baseline information about their processes and to obtain their views and perceptions of the LAPC system. Under the second phase qualitative research was carried out in the field. This involved detailed, semi-structured, faceto-face interviews with the process operators and the DETR and examination of documentary evidence within the Public Registers held by Lancashire's local authorities. The phased approach allowed the research to explore progressively deeper into the key areas associated with the implementation of the LAPC system. In particular, the research examined local authority enforcement and administration of the LAPC system to assess their regulatory performance and to determine the strategies they adopt to achieve compliance. The research also focused upon the process operators to assess their capacity to comply with the duties and responsibilities placed upon them under LAPC. The work offers a new perspective as it focuses upon both regulators and operators alike and examines their performance from the outset of LAPC to its closing stages. The research findings allow conclusions to be drawn on the relationship that exists between these "stakeholders" and the regulatory conditions that exist within the system. The research findings suggest that local authorities and process operators have had difficulty in discharging their duties under the LAPC system. For various reasons, the capacity of the regulators and the operators to achieve compliance has been compromised. The difficulties that the stakeholders have faced in striving to come to terms with the LAPC system have influenced their compliance strategies and affected the relationship that exists between them. This research identifies and examines these difficulties and assesses their performance under such conditions.

Abstract:
This dissertation studies the policy process which produced and implemented the Integrated Pollution Control (IPC) system in 1990, administered by Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Pollution (HMIP). It assesses how IPC was implemented in terms of setting pollution control standards, hQWIPC compares with the air pollution regime it replaced, and in terms of IPC's policy output. Policy network concepts are used to analyse the networks of interaction between policy actors as they seek to influence the policy process. The research involved interviews with these policy actors, plus analysis of relevant documentation - including a content analysis of the new IPC public register. The analysis is presented historically, beginning with the policy network of regulator and industry which negotiated air pollution controls. Public interest groups criticised this regime in the early 1970s for the informal, consensual, and confidential way it set and enforced air pollution standards. During the 1980s, European legislation put pressure upon domestic pollution control practice. Industry began lobbying for improvements to the flexible British regime as a bulwark against European formalism. Several factors led to HMJP's creation and IPC introduction, including European and industrial pressures, but also a belief by government that change had deregulatory potential. Regulatory procedures under IPC are more transparent and formal. However, standard setting was at HMIP's discretion, to be exercised during IPC implementation. HMIP initially intended to break from the past and do this at arms'length from industry. Analysis of this implementation stage uses the organic chemicals sector for case study. It explains why IPC has suffered an 'implementation deficit' compared to HMIP's initial intentions. Moreover, improvements to industrial pollution control are negotiated in a policy network similar to its air pollution predecessor. It is argued that within the formal legal framework, persists an infonnal, consensual, and somewhat opaque pollution regime.

Abstract:
The sanitary and hygienic condition of tree stands exposed to increased anthropogenic load, namely, the impact of industrial chemical pollution in the urban environment, is evaluated. The difference in the forest pathological state of trees is explained by their age, proximity to emission sources, highways, residential buildings, as well as different degrees of resistance to chemical pollutants in urban areas. The main types exposed to industrial emissions affecting the condition of tree stands are identified, with subsequent distribution by condition categories. Five reference points are proposed for studying the effects of chemical air pollution on plant biota. The characteristic species composition of woody vegetation growing on the territory of the selected objects under study was determined, and the percentage of their occurrence was calculated. At the test sites located near the sources of emissions, a high percentage of individuals affected by spot or spot necrosis and having pathological signs of the trunk, water shoots, shrunken skeletal branches and tops were noted, in contrast to the plantings located in the so-called zone of moderate pollution and at the control point at the maximum distance from the sources of emissions. Individuals promising in monitoring of atmospheric air pollution have been identified.

Abstract:
Renewed interest in waste-to-energy (WTE) has spurred a number of plans for facility expansions, retrofits and in several cases, new facilities. Complex federal and state regulations governing stationary air pollution sources challenge projects to develop and implement a compliance strategy that meets current and emerging regulatory requirements and which consists of commercially available and technically feasible control technologies, while managing the financial viability of the project. Past experience in the WTE industry is indicative of current challenges, and the deliberate development of WTE in the United States over the last 15 years now creates challenges when technologies developed and implemented elsewhere must be considered. One example is control of nitrogen oxides. Individual projects are subject to regulatory requirements differently, with net emissions increases, location and other attributes establishing the basis for regulatory compliance. This paper will discuss the complex New Source Review permitting requirements that typically apply to WTE projects, review commercially available air pollution control technologies, and discuss, through the use of a case study, the decision-making process used to develop the air pollution control strategy for the York County Resource Recovery Center expansion, one recent development of new WTE capacity in the United States.

Abstract:
Soil, air, and water pollution is emerging as a major problem in many cities because of industrialization and fast-paced lifestyles. The main sources of pollution in such environments are combustion products originating from industry, traffic, city heating plants, individual fireplaces, and construction activities, but also improper storage of industrial and communal waste. Soil is a complex and specific layer of the earth’s crust that represents a geochemical „accumulator“ of pollutants and plays an important role in environmental processes where it acts as a natural buffer that controls the transport of chemical elements and compounds to the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and the living world. Most of the industry in its production processes uses various mineral resources, the burning and melting of which results in the emission of dust, smoke, and suspended particles containing heavy metals, which are deposited in the soil from the air. The greening of urban areas through the construction of parks and green oases is of great importance for the reduction of soil pollution and the rest of the environment and for the preservation of urban ecosystems.

Abstract:
The demands on industry to reduce fugitive emissions are steadily increasing. For the European Union the Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control (IPPC) directive determines emission levels, and this directive must be transferred into national regulations. In Germany this is done by the TA-Luft (Technical Instructions on Air Quality Control). In addition, several VDI Guidelines give details for the implementation of the TA-Luft in the industry. In the guideline VDI 2440 (“Emission Control — Mineral Oil Refineries”) there are definitions for a high-grad sealing element which must be used in bolted flange connections (BFC) in TA-Luft applications. More details are defined in the VDI guideline 2200 (“Tight Flange Connections — Selection, Calculation, Design and Assembly of Bolted Flange Connections”), the topic of which is similar to the ASME PCC-1 document. For industry the most important guideline in respect of calculation and assembly of bolted flange connections is the VDI guideline 2290 (“Reduction of Emissions — Characteristics of Tight Bolted Flange Connections”) which will be issued over the course of the year. In this guideline the tightness classes required for a particular design analysis are defined. Because of requirements on the quality management system of the operating company in respect of the assembly of the bolted flange connections, the impact of this guideline will be extensive. In the paper the most important requirements on the industry resulting of the TA-Luft and the VDI guidelines are first summarized. Then the impacts of these requirements are illustrated, and some possible implementations of these demands which are under discussion at present are shown.

Abstract:
Coal-fired power plants that survive into the future and avoid being displaced by combined cycle plants and wind turbines will require air quality control (AQC) equipment to conform to EPA requirements per the Cross State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR). This AQCS can consume 5–10% parasitic load of a coal-fired unit’s output. This paper will provide discussion on recent industry trends of utilities pushing to implement modernization projects for parasitic load recapture and also other benefits such as life extension, improved maintenance, better efficiency, availability, and reliability. The three main strategies discussed will be: • Boiler and Turbine Optimization options • Steam Turbine Modernization with the latest technology steam path • Steam Valve Modernization Coal-fired plants have been careful to implement these types of projects without additional heat input in- order to avoid any new source review issues. Recent industry examples and development efforts will be discussed in this paper to provide an overview of these options current available or that will be available in the near future for coal-fired power plants.

Abstract:
The Environmental Protection Agency promulgation of “Control of Emissions of Air Pollution from New Marine Compression Ignition Engines at or above 37 kW,” on December 29, 1999, marked the first time federal air pollution regulations were directly applied to marine engines for commercial U.S. ships. Perhaps surprisingly, these regulations are not having as much impact as are individual State Implementation Plans (SIP) for Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) attainment, and local political pressures. These regional plans and pressures are forcing many domestic marine operators and ports to get a quick education on the cause and mitigation of air pollution. Cases in point, include: • The State of Alaska now fines passenger vessels that enter ports with greater than allowable stack gas opacities. One cruise operator has opted to plug into shore power when its vessels are tied up to pier. • In the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach vessel operators have been asked to slow vessel speeds below normal while entering and exiting in a voluntary attempt to reduce NOx emissions. • Environmentalists in the San Francisco Bay Area are applying significant political pressures to ensure proposed new ferry systems emit a minimum of air pollution. • The State of Texas briefly considered stopping all industrial equipment in the Port of Houston for twelve hours per day as a method of decreasing area ozone formation. • Potential NOx emissions generated during imminent channel dredging in the Port of New York and New Jersey is impeding the development of the latest State Implementation Plan. Local pressures are likely to continue to grow, federal regulations are set to become more stringent, and international conventions loom on the horizon. However, as expected in such a competitive industry, concerns are often focused on the bottom line in which cost of operations is a pre-eminent factor. It was in view of these dynamics that the federal Maritime Administration (MARAD) recently launched the Maritime Energy and Clean Emissions Program. This paper introduces the Program, including the background, evolution, and progress of each strategic goal. This paper is intended to be an overview. Attention is paid to the potential transferability and/or development of technologies not previously deployed in the U.S. marine environment. Any of the specific projects described could become the basis for a separate technical paper.

Abstract:
The Industrial Revolution in the nineteenth century has introduced chemical leavening agents such as baking soda. In today’s Biscuit and Cracker Industry, ammonia is one of the most common ingredients for the bakery product. According to the EPA, ammonia vapor constitutes about 99% of total emissions from a biscuit oven. Air control equipment, such as catalytic oxidizers, is often installed at bakeries to convert the NH3 to nitrogen and NOx. It is a highly expensive and complicated method of controlling pollution. Integration of waste heat recovery and ammonia extraction processes gives us an effective, non-expensive and more natural solution to this problem. This method can be accomplished by using the solubility property of ammonia for the process of exhaust cooling and condensation with high moisture content.

Full text
Abstract:
Siemens Environmental Systems & Services (SESS), formerly Wheelabrator Air Pollution Control (WAPC) started up their first SDA on a Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) incinerator in 1987, and now have 50 operating at Waste to Energy (WTE) plants alone. We were pioneers in the development of semi-dry scrubbing technology and are continuously improving it. While Spray Dryer Absorber (SDA) / Fabric Filter (FF) technology is not new, it is still a viable option for multi-pollutant control from many processes including Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) incinerators. It has been the Best Available Control Technology for this industry during the last 25 years. High performance and reliability have been experienced at these facilities across the United States. The simple, proven design of the SDA/FF system has been shown to be effective in acid gas, particulate, heavy metals, and dioxin/furan control. Technology advancements make this technology even more attractive. This paper will provide an update on SDA/FF technology for controlling emissions from MSW incinerators, particularly in relation to performance enhancements, including advancements in SDA dual fluid nozzles and Fabric Filter design. The new generation SESS Fabric Filter enhances system performance by providing lower emissions, lower compressed air consumption, and longer bag life.

Full text
Abstract:
Since passage of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA), continuous emission monitoring system (CEMS) vendors, manufacturers, research organizations, parametric emissions monitoring system (PEMS) vendors, consultants, and source owner/operators have been developing strategies to satisfy compliance monitoring requirements that may eventually apply to many gas turbines and engines. A variety of CEMS and PEMS approaches have been developed, and evaluated to determine overall performance and cost. In addition, a few natural gas transmission companies have been required to install and operate CEMS on specific engines and turbines in order to comply with existing State permitting requirements or emissions trading programs.Within the next five years, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is expected to promulgate a series of stationary source, air emission regulations that will have a significant impact on many industrial sources. In addition, EPA will be issuing regulatory revisions, policy manuals and guidance documents to further clarify the implementation and enforcement of rules recently promulgated - e.g., Title V Permitting, Compliance Assurance Monitoring (CAM) and Credible Evidence rules. As a part of each of these anticipated rules, revisions, and supporting documents, EPA will require and continue to refine corresponding compliance monitoring procedures and performance specifications. For the natural gas transmission industry, the anticipated regulatory changes could result in substantial increases in the cost of environmental compliance. Costs associated with pollution control (including reductions in engine/turbine efficiency), compliance monitoring, emissions reporting and recordkeeping may all increase as a result of pending regulatory requirements. This report has been prepared to document the natural gas transmission industry's experience operating continuous emission monitoring systems (CEMS) on reciprocating engines and stationary gas turbines and to discuss some of the more critical, technical issues that will have to be addressed if pending regulatory changes require the use of CEMS. In particular, this report provides technical discussions regarding the performance, operation, maintenance and costs of a CEMS program for compliance monitoring of nitrogen oxides emissions.

Abstract:
Air pollution has become a major public issue and it is now evident that unburned hydrocarbons, CO, and NOx must meet increasingly restrictive standards. The emissions of nitrogen oxides by gas turbines are of concern because of their high toxicity and their role in the formation of photochemical smog. The formation of NOx occurs in a gas-fired gas turbine when combustion temperatures exceed a critical level for sufficient time to allow atmospheric nitrogen and oxygen to combine. For those gas turbine applications where steam or ultra-pure water are readily available, then steam or water injection are preferable NOx control strategies. Because these attributes are usually not available at pipeline compression stations, the turbine operators in the pipeline industry have chosen to control emissions by a dry combustion process. An alternative would be a catalytic reduction of the NOx generated in the exhaust gas but this requires an investment in SCR hardware and continuous use of ammonia, which adds to operating costs. Historically, dry low emissions (DLE) systems have experienced a greater than expected number of start-up problems as new products were introduced to the marketplace. A need of the gas pipeline industry is to identify the operating problems experienced with DLE systems, to link these problems to their most probable cause, to estimate costs incurred, and to glean strategies for avoiding future problems. A comprehensive PRCI sponsored survey of operators and manufacturers was completed which provides assistance to gas turbine operators in making NOx control procurement decisions and for budgeting operations and maintenance costs. This first ever detailed study provides information on typical operating costs and problems incurred with the currently operating DLE systems and serves as a guide for individual companies in the selection of cost effective low NOx combustion systems from available components offered by the OEM and after-market suppliers. The information developed by this report is intended to guide operators in estimating maintenance and repair costs to establish a lifetime cost of operation.

Abstract:
The findings of this study can inform and enable policymakers in improving occupational air pollution, including addressing air pollution, pollution sources and other related issues in the garment manufacturing sector in Cambodia. Such interventions will help to uphold the health of workers as a human right, ensure safe workplaces, and also be beneficial for the country’s economic growth, as a healthy workforce is more productive. While the garment sector serves as Cambodia’s economic backbone and creates much-needed jobs, it is also a highly polluting industry, alongside being regularly implicated for not upholding labour rights. The sector emits pollutants to air from intensive energy use, solid and hazardous waste emissions, noise pollution and wastewater pollution discharge. Despite this, the sector’s environmental impacts in Cambodia, particularly in relation to air pollution, are not well known, and this gap was highlighted in the development of Cambodia’s 2021 Clean Air Plan. Aiming to fill this gap, in cooperation with SEI, the Air Quality and Noise Management Department of the General Directorate of Environmental Protection of Cambodia’s Ministry of Environment conducted a research project to improve understanding of air pollutant emissions from the textile industry and the health impacts on workers in Cambodia’s garment industry. The study drew on in-depth interviews with 323 garment factory workers across 16 factories, interviews with 16 factory owners, and quantitative data to better understand all interviewees’ experiences with occupational air pollution. While the research documented any symptoms related to air pollution, it did not employ medical research to assess the workers’ health status, nor did it attempt to investigate the cost or impact of air pollution on factory production. This policy briefing draws on a longer report prepared by the Ministry of Environment (Chandath, H., Chhay Por, I., Sokyimeng, S., Dana, S., Raksmey, Y. 2023.

Abstract:
Air pollution is one of the primary causes of premature death worldwide. This paper examines the cost-effectiveness of two different air quality information programs that were implemented as part of randomized control trials. In the case of the SMS air quality alerts in Mexico City, we find that the program was not cost-effective in the experimental sample, but it would likely be cost-effective if the program were extended to all of Mexico City. In the case of real-time feedback on wood stove emissions in Valdivia, we find that the program was cost-effective in both the experimental sample and at scale.
