Glossary Terms
Air
pollutant
Any substance in air that could, in high enough
concentration,
harm man, other animals, vegetation, or material. Pollutants may include
almost
any natural or artificial composition of matter capable of being
airborne. They
may be in the form of solid particles, liquid droplets, gases, or in
combination
thereof. Generally, they fall into two main groups: (1) those emitted
directly
from identifiable sources and (2) those produced in the air by
interaction
between two or more primary pollutants, or by reaction with normal
atmospheric
constituents, with or without photoactivation.(1)
Environmental Tobacco Smoke (ETS)

smoke
