This book contains 15 chapters reporting air pollution of interest to experts in academia and industrial plants dealing with the environmental issues. These chapters emphasize the problems of air pollution involving the human sector as an essential part in the control of air pollutants. The book contains an analysis of various geographic regions and evaluation of different activities related to these areas. Descriptive analyzes present the generation of air pollution and its effect on society and materials evaluations. The major sources of emission of pollutants and the damage that they originate in the towns and industrial plants are reported. This volume provides methods and tools for assessment according to each location. Other important aspects are the activities of governmental authorities, the academic and sectors for solving the environment problem.

Atmospheric Pollution Causes Deterioration of Sweeteners of Treats and Decreases Competitiveness in the Food Industry of Coastal Baja California, Mexico
View all chaptersThe use of pigments and sweeteners in the food industry has been of great importance over the last thirty years, as an aid to obtaining better quality products of certain types of food that require specialized methods of production, such as sweet breads. Since pigments were first used they have increased the competitiveness of the regional, national and international bakeries and treats companies found on the coast of Baja California, in northwest Mexico. In this region of the country, many people consume a considerable quantity of sweet bread, principally in winter. The pigments are made using specialized methods and have qualities relevant to the special conditions required in the storage and manufacturing processes, as well as to the types of food and the packaging associated with them. This is done in order to achieve a favorable appearance, and to create an be aactive product fortoforonsumers. Any bread with defective sweetener or pigmentation levels must be rejected and returned to the manufacturing process or be offered as food to pigs at a much lower market price resulting in economic losses to the company and a decrease in competitiveness. A specialized analysis of the subject was undertaken between 2012 and 2014 with the use of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).
