Classification of air pollutants can help us understand the nature of a pollutant and therefore the best techniques for managing it. Classification also helps identify the sources, the methods of formation, the forms, and the harmful effects of pollutants. We can then derive methods and techniques to eliminate them from the very beginning, minimize their formation, tackle their existence, educate ourselves and rationalize replacements.
Pollutants can be classified according to their:
- origin
- chemical composition
- state of matter
- area of impact
