Air Pollution Control

Air-pollution source analysis identifies where pollutants originate and how much each source contributes to ambient burden. It is the first step in planning effective control strategies.

Atmospheric dispersion estimates how emitted pollutants spread and dilute in air under varying meteorological conditions. Gaussian plume models remain a core analytical tool for stack-impact calculations.

Particulate-control devices remove suspended solids from industrial gas streams using electrical, inertial, or filtration mechanisms. Device selection depends on particle size, gas temperature, and required outlet standards.

Gaseous-pollutant control targets acid gases, VOCs, and NOx through transfer, reaction, or catalytic conversion mechanisms. Proper technology choice depends on pollutant chemistry and concentration range.

Ambient-air standards define permissible pollutant concentrations for protecting public health over specific averaging periods. Compliance tracking uses monitored values, exceedance counts, and index-based communication tools like AQI.
