Air Pollution in the Home project
7.1 Introduction to air pollution
2.3 Air quality be affected though the realise of sulfur dioxide , principally diesel
2.4 The EPA regulate the use of lead
2.2 Combustion of fossil fuels= Nitrogen oxide into the atmosphere
The photochemical smoke convert to nitric acid
2.5 Air pollutants can be primary or secunadry pollutants
2.1 Coal combustions releases air polllutants
Carbon dioxide , sulfur dioxide , toxic metals
7.2 Photochemical smog
ozone is produced by chemical reactions between oxygen and sunlight
gasoline and farmaldehyde evaporate at room temperature
a lot of environmental factors affectthe photochemical smog
photochemical smokes are forms in urban areas this is because the smoke of the vehicles .
is formed when nitrogen and volatiled organic hydrocarbons react with heat
7.8 noise pollution
The noise pollution is a sound that is very high enough to cause stress and in the worst case hearing loss .
some causes of noise pollution in urban cities are : transportation,domestic and industrial activities and construction .
The effects on noise pollution in animals includes stress and the masking of sound .
7.4 atmospheric CO2 and particulates
CO2 appears naturally in the atmosphere with : volcanic eroptions , descomposition , celular respiration.
there are a really variety of natural sources that causes the expulsion of CO2.
7.5 Indoor air pollutants
natural sources indoor: radon,mold and dust
includes monoxide , nitrogen oxide ,sulfur dioxide particles and tabacco smoke .
indoor air pollutants can come in a natural way.
these air pollutants are classified abestos dust and smokes
carbon monoxide is an indoor air pollutant that is asphyxiant
7.7 Acid rain
acid depossition affect de communities that are downwind.
acid rain can lead to the acidification of soils .
nitric oxide cause acid deposition come from motor vehicles and coal burning
limestone bedrock has the ability of to neutralize the effect of acid rains of lakes .
Acid rain is due to nitrogen oxides and depositions
7.6 Reduction of air pollutants
Drive your car less. Vehicle exhaust is a major source of air pollution in Minnesota. Carpool. Bike. Bus. Telecommute. Electric vehicles. How could you burn less fuel?
Keep your car in good repair. Fix exhaust and oxygen sensor problems ASAP. Check your tire pressure monthly; under-inflated tires have been shown to lower gas mileage, particularly at lower speed.
Turn off your engine. An idling engine creates a hot spot of pollution. Buses and big trucks produce particularly unhealthy exhaust. Parents and teachers can help their schools and daycares develop and implement no-idling policies.
regulatory practices , conservation párticles and alternative fuels.
7.3 thermal inversion
Thermal inversion traps pollution close close to the ground , especially smoke .
The normal temperature gradient in the atmosphere is altered as the air temperature in Earth
