Primary ~ fires,construction sites smokestacks ‘Secondary ~ Reaction between gaseous chemicals emitted by power plants and automobiles, Dusts are solid particles generated by such processes as handling, crushing, end grinding. Fumes are formed when material from a volatilized solid condenses in cool air (e.g., weld solid particles whose length is several times their diameter, such as asbestos. Mist is a liquid suspended in air. Mists are generated by liquids condensing from a vapor back to a liquid or by a liquid being dispersed by splashing or atomizing ‘Aerosols are also a form of a mist characterized by highly respirable, minute liquid particles. They can be formed by atomizing, spraying, or mixing, or by violent chemical reactions, METHODS OF AIR POLLUTION CONTROL ‘ AIR POLLUTION CONTROL DEVICES DEVICES USED TO CONTROL PARTICULATE CONTAMINANTS Gravity Separators, Centrifugal separators, Fabric filters, Particulate Scrubbers, Electrostatic Precipitators.
