    Ways to control environmental pollution
    Source of pollution Main pollutant Way to control pollution
    Combustion of Acidic gas such as • To use an air cleaning system to dissolve poisonous gas in water before
    fossil fuel Sulphur dioxide and releasing it into the air
    nitrogen dioxide • To build a tall chimney to release poisonous gas to a higher level of the
    atmosphere

    Soot and dust(haze • To equip chimneys with electrostatic precipitators to remove pollutants in smoke
    and smoke) before releasing it into the air
    • Fixing a filter at the chimney

    Carbon dioxide • To plant more green plants to remove carbon dioxide in the air
    Carbon monoxide • To install Catalyst converters on the exhaust pipes of vehicles to convert carbon
    monoxide gas to carbon dioxide

    Disposal of By-product, toxic and • To reinforce laws and regulations to control the disposal of industrial waste
    industrial waste radioactive materials
    materials substances
    Heat • To cool hot water in cooling pounds before releasing it

    and pesticides pesticides
    • To encourage the practice of biological control instead of the usage of pesticides
    Domestic wastes Plastics and solids • To recycle materials that are reusable
    and sewage • To prohibit open burning of garbage except in an enclosed incinerator

    energy
    • To impose fines on those who litter
    Food residue • To place them in plastic bags ,tie and throw them in a covered garbage bin
    Sewage • To channel sewage to oxidation ponds, so that bacteria can react to decompose
    the sewage to simple materials that are not smelly
    Vehicles and Noise • To ban loud noises in certain areas such as hospitals and residential areas
    machinery
    Poisonous gas and • Constant checks by authorities on factories that emit poisonous gas and smoke
    smoke • To encourage the usage of unleaded petrol
    The usage of Chlorofluorocarbons • To reduce the usage of chlorofluorocarbons(CFCs)
    chlorofluorocarbo (CFCs) • To replace chlorofluorocarbons(CFCs) with hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs)
    ns(CFCs) that do not harm the ozone layer
