Cement industries are growing faster in last decade so pollution is also increase but new technique and method

are used in cement industries therefore pollution is not increase much. In cement industry air pollution, water pollution & noise pollution occur. AIR POLLUTION:

The main constituents of exhaust gases from a cement kiln are nitrogen, carbon dioxide, water, and oxygen. The exhaust gases also contain small quantities of dust, chlorides, fluorides, sulfur dioxide, NOX, carbon monoxide, and still smaller quantities of organic compounds and heavy metals. NOx forms by the reaction of nitrogen with oxygen at the high temperatures generated during combustion of fuel. Emissions of NOX are of concern as they can detrimentally affect air quality and human health, an example of which is its role in the production of ground-level ozone, which can aggravate respiratory systems. SO2 emissions arise from oxidation of volatile sulfur present in raw materials such as organic sulfur, or inorganic sulfides. Some may also arise from sulfur in the fuels. If the volatile sulfur content of the fuel and raw materials is low, SO2 emission can be very low. Much of the SO2 produced can potentially be captured within the process due to strongly alkaline conditions. Emissions of SOx are of concern as they can detrimentally affect air quality and human health, some examples of which are the production of acid rain, reduced atmospheric visibility (smog) and aggravation of respiratory systems. The principal sources of dust emissions are kilns, raw mills, clinker coolers and cement mills Dust emissions also arise as a result of transport of raw materials to the site, from stockpiles of raw materials, from hoppers and raw material transfer, and pipework When people breathe particle-laden air, particles with a diameter greater than 10 micrometers (ten millionths of a meter) are usually stopped by the nose. Smaller particles can enter the respiratory system and are often called inhalable or inspirable. Smaller particles can penetrate into the lungs and are often called respirable. Cement production is a major source of emissions of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2). There are two very different sources of carbon dioxide emissions during Cement production. Combustion of fossil fuels to operate the rotary kiln is the largest source & the chemical process of calcining limestone into lime in the cement kiln produces CO2. Carbon monoxide production may be of concern as it can detrimentally affect air quality and human health and GREEN HOUSE EFFECT
