Environmental Safety in Industrial Systems

Air pollution, primarily from automobile exhaust in urban areas, has led to significant health concerns, prompting legislative actions like the Clean Air Act of 1970 to protect public health. These acts required OSHA and the EPA to set pollutant concentration limits and mandate the use of best available technologies to reduce emissions. Despite progress in regulations and technologies, comprehensive literature addressing key industrial air pollution issues remains limited.

This white paper aims to fill that gap by answering critical questions about EPA regulations, key pollutants, affected industries, detection and response methods, effective technologies, and the consequences of non-compliance. It offers over 30 years of research insights for Environmental Health Safety (EHS) managers to ensure pollutant levels meet EPA standards, safeguarding workers and communities, and provides guidelines for selecting and deploying appropriate technology solutions.
