Nowadays study of the industrial pollutions has become a controversial issue to reduce the risks of them in all of the world. Studding of air, water, and soil pollutions as separately may cause neglect from address to a comprehensive look in industrial pollution issue. In addition, without the exact information about quantity and quality of pollution sources, reduce or eliminate industrial poll...

nowadays, with population growth in urban areas, providing safe water and health is considered basic needs of human, alongside the various pollutants due to urban activities, agriculture and industrial areas on adjacent ranges into urban water resources around the environment is such that study necessary to prevent the pollution of water resources and identification of pollution sources shows. ...

various industrial processes with a huge variety of products, materials and compounds create different kinds of pollution for human beings, so that the identification of environmental pollutants resulting from industrial units’ activities, especially in water resources seems necessary. the aim of this paper is to estimate the role of industrial units in contaminating water resources, through us...

In this paper we investigate the relationship between economic growth and industrial pollution emissions in China using data for 112 major cities between 2001 and 2004. Using disaggregated data we separate FDI inflows from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan from those of other foreign economies. We examine four industrial water pollution indicators (wastewater, chemical oxygen demand, hexavalent chrom...

Urban air pollution due to industrial emission and vehicular emission due to automobiles has aggravated the problem of environmental pollution. Plants are known to act as sink for air pollutants. Planting of trees and shrubs in the form of greenbelt around the industry is an effective way for abatement of pollution and improvement of environment and is well recognized throughout the world. This...

In many people’s minds air pollution is associated with the contamination of urban air from automobile exhausts and industrial effluents. However, in developing countries, the problem of indoor air pollution far outweighs the ambient air pollution. There are four principal sources of pollutants of indoor air : (i) combustion, (ii) building material, (iii) the ground under the building, and (iv)...

A brief history of air pollution Accounts of air pollution in the UK date back to the 13 century. Early occurrences resulted from rapid population growth, urbanisation and changes in fuel use – in particular the medieval switch from wood to coal, especially in brick kilns and domestic fireplaces. Coal combustion in industrial furnaces, boilers and, above all, in domestic fireplaces, was the mai...

Human and animal toxicology has had a profound impact on our historical and current understanding of air pollution health effects. Early animal toxicological studies of air pollution had distinctively military or workplace themes. With the discovery that ambient air pollution episodes led to excess illness and death, there became an emergence of toxicological studies that focused on industrial ...

This article extends environmental risk perception research by exploring how potential health risk from exposure to industrial and vehicular air pollutants, as well as other contextual and socio-demographic factors, influence racial/ethnic differences in air pollution health risk perception. Our study site is the Greater Houston metropolitan area, Texas, USA-a racially/ethnically diverse area f...
