Abstract
Pollution is the
introduction of harmful substances or products into the environment from
different sources. Increased urbanization in parallel with the rapid population
growth, and rapid increase in industrial organization in parallel with
developments in science and technology revealed the environmental pollution
problems. Main types of pollution are water pollution, air pollution, soil
pollution, biological and nuclear pollution. Water pollution; Most industries
require large amounts of water for their work. When involved in a series of
processes, the water comes into contact with heavy metals, harmful chemicals,
radioactive waste and organic sludge. Air pollution: The most damaging
greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide, is released into the atmosphere from the
burning of fossil fuels and factory emissions contribute greatly to the release
of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Soil pollution: Industrial pollution is
clearly one of the biggest contributors to our polluted landscapes. There are
plenty of causes of land pollution, from urban and industrial ones, to rural
and agricultural sources. Among the causes of industrial pollution, lack of
policies to control pollution, unplanned industrial growth, use of outdated
technologies, presence of large number of small scale industries and
inefficient waste disposal are the most importants.
Effects of
Industrial Pollution: Most industries require large amounts of water for their
work. When involved in a series of processes, the water comes into contact with
heavy metals, harmful chemicals, radioactive waste and even organic sludge.
Soil pollution is creating problems in agriculture and destroying local
vegetation. It also causes chronic health issues to the people that come in
contact with such soil on a daily basis. Air pollution has led to a steep
increase in various illnesses and it continues to affect us on a daily basis.
The issue of industrial
pollution concerns every nation on the planet. As a result, many steps have
been taken to seek permanent solutions to the problem. Better technology is
being developed for disposal of waste and recycling as much polluted water in
the industries as possible.
