Environmental Chemistry
1. Biodegradable Waste:
Generated by cotton mills, paper
Types mills, textiles, etc.
Troposphere : 0-10 km Atmosphere 2. Non-biodegradable waste:
Stratosphere : 10-30 km Generated by power plants,
Atmospheric pollution

Layer of Atmosphere steel plants, fertilizer

Mesosphere : 30-50 km
industries,etc
Thermosphere : 50-400 km
Exosphere : 400 km

Depletion of O3 Layer
When p H of
rain water
drops below

Oxides of Nitrogen Smog → smoke + Fog . Classical CFC + hv (high heat) + O 3
Acid Rain Oxides of Carbon Co, Co2 Smog
