Pollutants:
Machineries
Increasing
industrial activities with
multiple productivity of goods
by the extensive use of
machineries resulted in
extension of industries in rural
areas, also the cause of
increase in noise disturbance
and heat accumulation.
The
effects of this activity are:
- causes
for irritation to daily
activities
- cause
for boilermaker's disease
and hearing loss
- anxiety,
nervousness and loss of
sleep
- presbycusis
- sociocusis
- schizophonia
- excess
heat emitted will return to
environment, thus increasing
mean surrounding
temperature, leading to
thermal pollution
- certain
hazardous materials which is
part of the machine (i.e.
cadmium in nuclear factor
regulator) may wear off and
released to environment
