Prevention And Control
Assessment of precipitation in Guilin over the years 2013 to 2017
reveals the strong links between pollution management and acid rain
changes. Acid gases like SO₂ and NOₓ were greatly reduced in the air,
but acid rain levels did not follow suit. In reality, the acidity of
precipitation went up after 2015, mainly because the amount of
neutralizing chemicals like calcium (Ca²⁺) and ammonium (NH₄⁺) in the
air was reduced at the same time. According to the findings, while
dealing with acid gas emissions is necessary, concentrating only on
cleaning up pollutants can actually make acid rain worse if more acidic
rain is falling.
A method for preventing and controlling acid rain should include
controlling acid pollutants along with adding alkaline substances at the
same time and in a planned way. The study advises that all main
pollutants—namely, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, ammonia and
atmospheric coarse particles—should be controlled at the same time, not
on their own. It would support maintaining equilibrium between acidic
and basic compounds in the atmosphere.
The analysis shows that}[DO RESEARCH] For this reason, both the fossil
fuel industry and agriculture need to be controlled more strictly and
changed, to lower ammonia in the atmosphere. Long-distance air currents
also have a big effect on the chemical makeup of local rainwater. So, it
is also important for neighboring regions to join forces in dealing with
air pollution, with special consideration for upwind places.
