Question

Removing particulates from smokestack emissions is an example of an “end of pipe” remedy.

a. True
b. False

Answer 1

True,

Step-by-step explanation:

End-of-pipe (EOP) remedy is a treatment process in which the waste matter generated by any system is treated/processed before discharging it into the environment.

These methods are used to remove contaminants that have already formed in the stream of air, water, waste, etc. at the last stage of process before disposing.

Here in this case also, particulates from the smokestack is removed at the last stage before releasing the emission into the air.

Thus, the given statement is true.

Answer 2

I would say that this is true, because an "end of pipe" remedy is used to describe methods used to remove already formed contaminants from many sources (they can remove contaminants from air, water, waste, product or similar). Seeing that your question implies removing air emissions, I'd say it is a good example of an "end of pipe" remedy. Hope this helps!
