3. Over View
• India is one of the ten most industrialized
countries in the world. It has the 8thlargest
economy which has grown by an average of
7% per year (2003-2012).
• Industrial Air Pollution ; Not only emulated
the pace of industrialization , But also
surpassed it in many counts!!
4. • Just to give a sense of horrendousness it created till
today ; Researchers at the Helmholtz Centre for
Environmental Research (UFZ) ,Who studied the
effect of Industrial Air Pollution in major cities of
India ,Reported
“Bangalore saw the second highest increase in air-
pollution levels in the world at 34%(2005-2012),
and Indian cities including Pune, Mumbai, Nagpur
and Ahmedabad, among others, also saw double-
digit increases
India`s Air Pollution Is It Worse than China`s , Brazil
`s , Russia`s !!!”
5. Industrial Air Pollution –How it weights when
compared to other sources of befouling the
AIR?
• In our study we came to know that , Industrial Air
pollution accounts for approximately 70 % of the
total air pollution !!!! .
• Industrial Air Pollution is much worse than Vehicular
Exhaust !
• Major Cause for the respiratory problems –
coughing, wheezing and asthma attacks.
• In a study released earlier this year, India ranked last
out of 132 countries in terms of air quality and
effects on human health.
6. Industrial Sources of Air Pollution
• All these activities of Industries Lead to Air Pollution -;
Coal Combustion, Oil Combustion , Gas Combustion,
Chemicals Manufacturing , Synthetic Rubber Manufacturing ,
Fertilizer Manufacturing , Metallurgical Industry , Smelting of
Non- Ferrous Ores , Construction Material Industry ,
Petroleum Industry , Manufacture of Iron and Steel , Paper &
Pulp Industry etc….
7. Recent Measures To Curtail The Industrial Air
Pollution By Indian Govt
• Introduced a concept of “Carbon Credits” Carbon
credits are sold to individuals and companies as a
method of offsetting the damage by giving
money to organizations that claim to clean up the
carbon released into the air.
• Tax Incentives for the companies that follow
stringent techniques to reduce Air Pollutants
• Imposed Stern laws for the companies that
violated minimum standards stipulated by the
Ministry of Environmental Affairs
8. Despite all these………!
• The pace of Industrial Air Pollution is
adamantly looking up due to the vulnerable
loop holes in our system and thus costing 2
Billion Dollars (11,000 Crore Rupees!!) from
Indian Citizens Pockets in the form of all
Health Issues……..
9. Preventive Measures
• We truly hope the following measures will ensure retrenching
the Industrial Air Wastes effectively ; Impressive Results from
the pilot implementation of these measures in Canadian
Region this year will Underpin our argument
1. Activated carbon is one of the most effective forms of air pollution control. This
type of control involves the use of a pollution filter, carbon, to reduce the
amount of pollutants that are allowed to escape into the air.
2. Biofiltration is another effective type of air pollution control. It uses
microorganisms, often bacteria and fungi, to dissolve pollutants
3. Usage of Bag Houses Or Fabric Filters in all Machineries
4. Usage of Electrostatic Precipitators reduce the exhaust wastes from the systems
5. Adsorbers , Catalytic Oxidizers absorb all the carbon emissions
6. Vapor condensers can be used to control emissions hydrocarbons and other
organic vapors such as chlorine, fluorine and particulate matte
10. • Mandatory imposition of all these measures
by the Govt of India in all Industries ensures
the better health of AIR
11. Ground Study & Key Takeaways
• When Inquired the residents near the Auto
Nagar region , Vijayawada . We found that
Atleast one in
