Study Notes
Biodegradable Pollutants
- Biodegradable pollutants are substances that can be broken down rapidly by natural processes, such as microbial decomposition.
Suspended Particulate Matter
- Construction activities are a major source of suspended particulate matter (SPM) released into the air. SPM refers to small solid particles suspended in the air, often generated by construction activities.
Biological Particulate
- Organic materials are the main component of biological particulate matter. Such materials originate from living organisms and play key roles in various environments.
Inorganic Waste
- Glass is an example of inorganic waste. This type of waste does not decompose naturally, unlike organic materials.
