factory emissions
Manufacturing air pollution
Factory emissions are pollutants released into the air by manufacturing facilities—smoke, gases, and particulate matter from industrial processes.
The term appears frequently in discussions of environmental regulation and climate change: The new policy aims to reduce factory emissions by thirty percent.
Emissions may include carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and other byproducts of burning fossil fuels or chemical manufacturing.
