Modern smike stacks are designed to allow the effect dilution of gases to ensure that the legislated limits of the pollutants do not exceed the Ground Level Concentration (GLC) specified by law. The calculation involves the stack diameter, exit gas density, temperature and velocity and other factors. The examination and calculation also takes into account the location of the stack relative to there structures and landforms, prevailing winds and local considerations. As a consequence the taller stack and the shorter stack disperse pollutants equally well.

What allows ozone to form easily?

Pollution containing Oxygen, and Solar radiation. The Solar radiation from the Sun causes the Oxygen molecules in pollutants to bond and the carbon molecules to break away, causing Ozone (O4) to form.


Why is acid added to water and not the other way around?

The dissociation of acid in water releases large amounts of energy in the form of heat. Because this energy cannot disperse easily through acid, it makes the material around it boil; this is a serious danger that can be avoided quite simply by adding acid to water, where the energy required to boil the solution is a lot higher and the heat can disperse more rapidly.


What should you do when a fire breaks out on your boat?

Point the bow into the wind so that the fire is downwind and doesn't spread as easily. Then put on a PFD (lifejacket) if you've not already done so and try to put out the fire using an extinguisher or if that is not possible try to find other means of assistance depending on how bad the fire is.
