Air Pollution Control Device

Air pollutants are generated by nearly every facet of the industrial process, including raw material sourcing, product manufacturing, maintenance and repair services, and distribution. Consequently, there are several different types of air pollution control equipment available for air pollutants produced by both mobile and stationary sources across a wide range of industries. However, this article focuses mainly on control equipment for stationary-sourced air pollutants, such as those produced during combustion processes.

In an industrial setting, air pollution control equipment is an umbrella term referring to equipment and systems used to regulate and eliminate the emission of potentially hazardous substances—including particulate matter and gases—produced by manufacturing, process system, and research applications into the air, atmosphere, and surrounding environment.
