In air pollution "PM" stands for Particulate Matter. The matter is sub classified into:
Ozone is considered to be the most common air pollutant in the United States.
The most common indoor air pollutant is air freshener.
Lead
Settling velocities and aerodynamic diameters of PM are important characteristics to consider in determining engineering control strategies for various air pollutant particulate in order to have a variable to compare measurements against. This measurement helps determine the amount of air pollution being emitted into the atmosphere.
No, n2 (nitrogen gas) is not considered an air pollutant.
A lot of substances are not air pollutant. You must specify which kind of substance do you refer as a probable air pollutant.
Yes, nitrogen dioxide is considered an air pollutant.
A notable pollutant is particulate matter (PM), which consists of tiny solid or liquid particles suspended in the air. PM can originate from various sources, including vehicle emissions, industrial processes, and natural events like wildfires. It poses significant health risks, contributing to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, and can also affect the environment by degrading air quality and harming ecosystems. Efforts to reduce PM emissions are crucial for public health and environmental protection.
Major air pollution disasters have all occurred in industrialized areas.
no
"lead" is the air pollutant that decreased most in 1970 to 1991.
Carbon dioxide is the air pollutant that most concerns Americans.
