There are often additive results from industrial pollutants - for instance styrene and chlorine will combine to produce a lachrymator (from lacrima meaning "a tear" in Latin, commonly referred to as tear gas), chlorinated hydrocarbon gas (from degreasing baths) can interact with UV light from welders in welding shops to produce phosgene, phenols in water supplies can be chlorinated in treatment plants to produce chloro-phenols, cyanide can be converted to cyanide in acidic water
