Pollution control is a major global concern because of the harmful effects of pollution on a person’s health and on the environment. Environmental pollution comes in various forms, such as: air pollution, water pollution, soil pollution, etc. Pollution control means monitoring and removal of chemical, thermal, radioactive, and biological pollutants through the application of process engineering, environmental chemistry, water and sewage treatment, and waste management. In contrast to most pollution control strategies, which seek to manage the pollutants after it is formed and reduce its impact upon the environment, the pollution prevention approach seeks to increase the efficiency of a process, thereby reducing the amount of pollution generated at its source.
With a comprehensive pollution prevention program, most pollution can be reduced, reused, or prevented. To have any hope of slowing such pollution and, ultimately, reversing it, will require an energy revolution and some game-changing technological breakthroughs. The key question is: can engineers and entrepreneurs invent and deploy enough technologies – and the world’s governments adopt the right incentives and policies to eliminate carbon from the global economy – all in time to avert major upheaval from climate change? Consequently, ASSOCHAM TN is organizing the Pollution Control Conclave, to bring together the industry, government, entrepreneurs, academics and other stakeholders especially of Tamilnadu state, closer to realise a higher level of collaboration to decarbonize and create a sustainable economy by harnessing technology.
