air pollution and natural gas and natural gas process
Barry's Response - Negar:
The natural gas industry sends quite a bit of pollution into the
air. Most of the contaminants come from sulphur contained as H2S in the natural gas before processing. When they clean this stuff out they burn it, it creates SO2 (sulphur dioxide) which is less harmful than H2S but still a problem. A lesser problem is the production and release of nitrogen dioxide, NO2. Here is a brief overview, from a Canadian site.
