VOC emissions
are significant
greenhouse gases
Industrial gas waste is a serious problem
to the environment and people in many
manufacturing processes, such as rubber,
pharmaceutical and chemical products and
many other industries.
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are
chemicals that constitute one of the primary
elements or air pollution. VOC emissions are
significant greenhouse gases, and therefore
regulated by national and European directives.
VOC’s are a concern, as they participate in
atmospheric photochemical reactions that
contribute to ozone formation and therefore
are strictly regulated.
