Abstract
Atmosphere is a complicated reactive system. The pollution spreads due to a combination of chemical, physical and biological processes, which typically occur simultaneously. Air pollution control requires intervention of science, law and policy. Intervention of knowledge of science is required to control air pollution at the pollution source such as industry, automobile, mining and farming. Policy interventions need to be enforced by law to discipline few polluters for the benefit of many who are exposed to pollution. This chapter discusses the common engineering technologies along with administrative interventions for air pollution control.
