How should chimneys of factories be very tall?

Open in App

Solution

Chimneys of factories should be very tall as they emit harmful smoke into the atmosphere. When the harmful gases are disposed in the air at a greater height, the poisonous chemicals present in the smoke get partially or completely self-neutralised before reaching the ground thereby reducing air pollution.
