1.NATURE
Air pollution has had and will continue to have a devastating effect on the natural environment. The factors associated with pollution will lead to the falling appearance of plants, flowers, leaves, and other natural inhabitants. Many people take pride and appreciation in the visual beauty, smell, and detail of nature. Pollution completely works against this aesthetic quality.

2.VEGETATION
Air pollution effects vegetation. The plant life will not be able to survive if we it is constantly confronted by pollution. Pollution will not allow plants to get the nutrients that it needs in order to produce the quantity of the vegetation desired. Air pollution has also posed a huge threat to the vegetation life in terms of quality. Due to the large mass of pollution that has been projected into the air, there has been quite a concern as to how healthy the vegetation that we consume is.

3.MANKIND
Air pollution is also said to have a huge effect on mankind. As everyone knows, pollution of any kind is not supposed to be exposed to the human body. Pollution is said to be the cause for many illnesses that humans face. Although pollution, in many cases, is hard to pinpoint with a particular disease, increased study has pointed several illnesses to the environmental issues. One of the most harmful forms of pollution being air pollution. Air pollution will continue to have a tremendous effect on the human race if this problem is not eliminated, or at least controlled. Yes, it is true that the industrial environment attributes to a huge part of a nation’s economy, but the catastrophic effects that it continues to have on the people that inhabit the earth is a high price to pay. In reverse, we will begin to see a negative effect in a nation’s economy that is highly exposed to air pollution because people will not be able to withstand the increasing medical bills. This will, in turn, not only effect the individual, but will be an added expense to the nation’s government.

1. Acid Gas Pollution Control Program
Acid Gas Pollution Control Program is officially called the Acid Rain Program. The Acid Rain Program is run by the United States Environmental Protection Agency. The program is run as a market-based operation and works in an effort to reduce pollution levels in relations to the atmospheric levels of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which cause acid rain. This is an important issue because this causes pollution in plants that lead to the destruction of aquatic animals, as well. What this program does is allow corporations to gain economic incentives if they reduce the pollution that they exert.

2. Mercury Pollution Control
One of the most frequently used of the mercury pollution control devices to fight of the harmful pollution that mercury gives off is the venturi scrubber. The venturi scrubber is designed to allow the energy usage from the inlet gas stream to ensure that the liquid being used to scrub the gas stream is done in an effective manner. This pollution control device allows this to happen in a way so that the mercury pollution that is bound to occur otherwise is cut out or minimized.

3. LO NOx Pollution Control
The pollution control device that is used to minimize the NOx pollution is a LO NOx burner. It is used to decrease the level of steam that is input into the air. If a large amount of steam is projected into the air, this can lead to quite damaging air pollution. The LO NOx burner is typically a component found in most utility boilers.

4. Dust Collection Pollution Control
The dust collection pollution control is used in an effort to eliminate dust pollution. Contrary to common disbelief, dust pollution can be quite harmful if you were to breathe in large quantities. Dust collection systems work as large vacuums and work to decrease the amount of dust that is floating in the air. For your living spaces, and small office spaces, you are usually able to dust manually by using a feather duster. Nevertheless, for those that live and work in large buildings, there is usually a dust collection pollution control system that is installed. One of the places that have to utilize this system for the safety of company employees are commercial woodworking shops. There is a vast number of wood dust, chips, and shavings that are released in the air that they must be protected from.
