Quarries Are Pouring Pollutants Into Our Air The
A dump truck on site at Columbus Quarry was left running, allowing pollutants to fill the surrounding air, which can be seen mixed in with dust from the quarry. Quarries also expand rapidly. Reviewing All processes of aggregate production are potential sources of dust emission. Dust constitutes a major environmental concern in many quarries, with crushing suggested as the most significant source of it (Bada et al., 2013; Petavratzi et al., 2005; Sairanen et al., 2018).

Are Quarries Bad for the Environment? (7 Harmful Effects)
Quarrying can also release heavy metals and sulfate minerals. In drinking water, these substances can be harmful to both animals and humans. 3. Non-renewable Materials. Quarries are used to source stone, sand, and aggregates, which are non-renewable materials. So, quarries further the reliance on unsustainable compounds.air, varying in composition and size, resulting from various anthropogenic activities [19]. Particulate matter (PM) or fugitive dust is the primary source of air pollution in quarries mainly from rock blasting and crushing activities. In this case, the extent of pollution will depend on the local microclimate conditions [3,10,20].Article An assessment of air and water pollution accrued

Impact of Air Pollution from Quarrying and Stone
Keywords Quarries, Air Pollution, Agriculture, Biodiversity 1. Introduction Quarrying is a form of land use and part of the local heritage where nonmetallic rocks and aggregates are extracted from land [1]. Dimension and crushedstones are the final output of such industry in which these products are used for different purposes in our life [2].Resource availability and extraction seem to present a paradox to most countries in the global south. It appears to be a curse rather than a blessing. Using the resource curse theory as a philosophical lens, this study qualitatively analysed the effects of the stone quarrying industry in the Wenchi municipality of Ghana.

Development of an Effective Method for Preventing Dust Pollution
The degree of dust pollution in stone quarries is dependent on many variables including the type of equipment, speed of conveyer, size and humidity of rocks, speed and direction of air flow, etc. When dust pollution is not prevented, the concentration of dust can be 2 4 times higher than its maximum permissible concentration (MPC) in
