👉 Emissions engineering is a specialized field focused on reducing the release of harmful pollutants and greenhouse gases from industrial processes, power generation, and transportation systems. It involves the design, implementation, and optimization of technologies and strategies to minimize emissions at their source, including catalytic converters in vehicles, flue gas desulfurization systems in power plants, and carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies. Emissions engineers also develop processes to convert waste products into useful byproducts, such as converting carbon dioxide into fuels or chemicals. By employing advanced materials, process controls, and innovative engineering solutions, emissions engineering aims to mitigate environmental impacts, comply with regulatory standards, and promote sustainable industrial practices.
