3.Industrial wastes are discharged into the rivers.They mainly contain contaminated products like plastics,rubber,coal,fertilizers,pesticides etc.These pollutes the water level.
4.Industries and factories create unwanted noise or sound causing pollution.This may lead to hearing impairments.
5.Sometimes,industrial wastes are dumped into the isolated areas.This pollutes the land and the soil in the nearby regions.

Industrial pollution can be controlled in the following ways:

1.Industrial plants should be set up in distant areas away from human settlements.
2.Industries need to take up preventive measures to check pollution.
3.Industries should encourage sustainability and recycling of their products.
4.More efforts should be taken to establish local industries which implement reasonable and low cost ways to reduce pollution production at their plants.5.It is necessary to encourage industries to promote "green"methods of production and products.It includes environment-frindly operating processes
