How Can Factories Affect The Environment?

With the fast development of the industry of the emission of industrial gaseous waste is slowly increasing, the pollution of gases to the atmosphere gradually became serious. The atmosphere is a mixture of a certain proportion of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, water vapor, and solid impurity particles. The production of industrial gaseous waste will cause changes to the atmosphere to a certain extent in which will have a serious impact on people.

These are some environmental problems that are caused by industrial gaseous waste:

  1. Polluting the air & Endangering human health: People need to breathe air to maintain their lives, and polluted air has a direct impact on human health. Gases may cause respiratory problems and physiological dysfunction.

  2. Harm to plants: Sulfur dioxide, fluoride, and other harm to plants are very serious. It can spots on the surface of the plant leaves, resulting in plant yield and deterioration of plant quality.

  3. Harmful effects on the weather: the effects of atmospheric pollutants on weather and climate are mainly manifested in: 

    1. reduce the amount of solar radiation reaching the ground. 

    2. increase the amount of atmospheric precipitation

      1. cause acid rain, which could destroy large areas of forests and crops, corrode paper products…etc.

    3. increasing atmospheric temperature: the temperature of the air near the ground is higher than in the surrounding suburbs.

      People need to pay more attention to the problems that we are contributing to the environment and control the amount of time that we are using the factories in order to reduce the environmental problems that are caused by the development of industries.
