industrial fumes
Manufacturing air pollution
Industrial fumes are airborne gases, vapors, or fine particles released during manufacturing, chemical processing, or other industrial operations.
These emissions often contain toxic or irritating substances—metal oxides from welding, solvent vapors from painting, or combustion byproducts from furnaces.
Workers exposed to industrial fumes must wear respirators.
The term typically implies hazard, distinguishing these emissions from harmless steam or ordinary smoke.
