Carbon dioxide, and sulfur dioxide
Lead is not a major air pollutant measured by the air quality index. The major air pollutants measured are sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, and particle pollution (PM2.5 and PM10). Lead is a toxic metal that can be harmful when ingested or inhaled but is not typically included in standard air quality monitoring.
The major source of thermal energy on Earth is the Sun. The Sun emits heat and light through nuclear fusion, which warms the Earth's surface. This energy is essential for sustaining life and driving the Earth's climate systems.
Ozone is considered a pollutant when found in the lower atmosphere because it can cause respiratory issues and harm vegetation. It is a byproduct of pollutants like nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds reacting in the presence of sunlight, and can also contribute to the formation of smog.
The pollutant released into the air during the Chernobyl disaster was primarily radioactive isotopes, such as iodine-131, cesium-137, and strontium-90. These isotopes are harmful to human health and the environment due to their radioactivity.
Thermal compounds can be purchased online from retailers such as Amazon, Newegg, or directly from manufacturers like Arctic Silver. They can also be found in computer hardware stores or electronics stores.
Some major thermal power plants in India are located in states like Maharashtra (e.g. Chandrapur Super Thermal Power Station), Gujarat (e.g. Mundra Thermal Power Station), Madhya Pradesh (e.g. Sasan Ultra Mega Power Plant), and Uttar Pradesh (e.g. Anpara Thermal Power Station). These plants play a significant role in the country's electricity generation.
The list of thermal power plants in India include the Mundra Thermal Power Station in Gujarat; and Vindhyachal Thermal Power Station in Madhya Pradesh. Also included are Mundra Ultra Mega Power Plant, Talcher Super Thermal Power Plant, and Sipat Power Plant.
