Air Quality – Reducing Contaminants /20 or /35 Outcomes: -Examine scientific principles of technologies such as air scrubbers, baghouse filters, electrostatic precipitators, and catalytic converters that have been developed to reduce contaminants in motor vehicle and industrial emissions -Investigate processes designed to manage and improve indoor air quality in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings and structures in order to minimize damage to human health. -Develop a generalization about the relationship between human population density and air quality Objective: In this assignment your goal is to do some research on ways that humanity is mitigating (reducing) their impact on our air quality. You will look into some technologies dealing with improving outdoor air quality by reducing a) motor vehicle and/or industrial emissions and b) processes designed to improve indoor air quality. You may create your own format to type out this information, but I would recommend finding this assignment on our website and using the questions in their current order. You may work on this in partners [do a) and b)/c)] or on your own, [do a) or b) or c)] a) Motor Vehicles and Industrial Emissions (select one of the below to answer) Air Scrubber Baghouse Filter Electrostatic Precipitator Catalytic Converter Other? ________________ Then answer the following: What is it? What is it used in (1)? When was it developed and by whom (2)? What contaminant does it reduce (and what would this contaminants normally cause) (2)? Scientifically - How does it reduce the contaminants? Include a picture to help explain this (4) List references where you got your information from in APA (1) You will present this information to the class or make a visual (5) -
