Solution

The correct option is D Adsorption
Adsorption is the phenomena where the atoms, ions or molecules from the gases, liquid and solids to a surface. It is a surface-based phenomenon and it easily absorbs the gas molecules and can reduce gaseous pollutants.
The fine particles, like dust and smoke, from a flowing gas, is separated using the force of an induced electrostatic charge through electrostatic precipitators.
Pyrolysis is a thermochemical decomposition of organic material at elevated temperatures.
Incineration is a waste treatment process that involves the combustion of organic substances contained in waste materials.
So, the correct answer is option D.
