Abstract

Legislation requires that manufacturers carefully monitor and control their particulate gas discharge effluent. Pollution today is a very ‘dirty’ word and visible discharge from chimneys with deposition of soot and sulphurous compounds creates a barrier between the industrialist and an environment-conscious public. The industrialist who accepts his duty to society and the environment equips his factories with dust-arresting plant such as filters, cyclones, electrostatic precipitators and scrubbers, balancing the cost against his profit margins. His less public-spirited counterpart keeps this non-productive plant to the minimum required by law. In general, financial and technical resources and an incentive to act are necessary for results.
