The Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981 is the primary legislation in India for the prevention, control and abatement of air pollution.

The Central Pollution Control Board, State Pollution Control Boards and the Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change are all responsible for enforcing the provisions of the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981.

The main objectives of the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981 are to prevent, control and abate air pollution, to promote sustainable development and to protect the environment and human health.

Sulphur dioxide, Nitrogen dioxide and Carbon monoxide are criteria pollutants under the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981. Particulate matter is not a criteria pollutant under the act.

The National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) are a set of standards for ambient air quality. They are designed to protect public health and the environment.

Industrial emissions, Vehicle emissions and Agricultural activities are all sources of air pollution. Natural sources are not a source of air pollution.

The Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) is responsible for monitoring air quality, enforcing air pollution regulations and developing air pollution control strategies.

The State Pollution Control Boards (SPCBs) are responsible for monitoring air quality, enforcing air pollution regulations and developing air pollution control strategies.

Rapid industrialization, Increasing population and Lack of infrastructure are all major challenges in air pollution control in India.

Promoting clean energy, Improving energy efficiency and Encouraging public transportation are all effective measures to reduce air pollution in India.

Electrostatic precipitator, Bag filter and Wet scrubber are all types of air pollution control devices. Catalytic converter is not an air pollution control device.

The main purpose of an electrostatic precipitator is to remove particulate matter from the air.

The main purpose of a bag filter is to remove particulate matter from the air.

The main purpose of a wet scrubber is to remove gaseous pollutants from the air.

The main purpose of a catalytic converter is to remove gaseous pollutants from the air.
