The Interaction of Gaseous Pollutants with Materials at the Surface of the Earth

  • D. J. Spedding
Chapter

Abstract

Gaseous materials released into the atmosphere as the result of the activity of man suffer a variety of fates, depending upon their chemistry in the atmosphere, and this in turn influences their lifetime in the atmosphere. Sulfur dioxide, for example, has a mean lifetime in the atmosphere of only a few days, while methane has a mean lifetime of about 20 years.
