Ecology & Environment – General Studies

Coal gasification involves partially oxidizing coal with air, oxygen, steam, or carbon dioxide to generate a fuel gas. 

Ozone depletion, a grave environmental concern, refers to the gradual thinning of the ozone layer in Earth’s atmosphere, primarily due to the release of ozone-depleting substances

Industrial pollution is a pressing environmental concern that poses significant threats to ecosystems, human health, and overall well-being.

Acid rain pertains to any form of precipitation (rain, fog, mist, snow) exhibiting higher acidity than usual (with a pH level below 5.6

The intricate interplay between atmospheric constituents such as SMOG and aerosols exerts profound effects on the dynamics of monsoon rain

Air pollution is a pervasive environmental issue that poses significant threats to human health, ecosystems, and the overall quality of life.

Ozone-depleting substances (ODS) are compounds that significantly damage the Earth’s ozone layer, a vital component of the stratosphere responsible

Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, ozone, nitrogen oxide, and sulfur dioxide are quintessential atmospheric components that play pivotal roles

Fly ash, a byproduct of combustion processes contains a myriad of harmful substances and poses a considerable threat when released into the atmosphere.

Air pollution can be described as the existence of solid, liquid, or gaseous substances, including noise and radioactive radiation,
