Vaihepäästö

Vaihepäästö refers to a type of emission, specifically concerning the release of substances during a phase change process. This term is most commonly encountered in environmental science and industrial contexts. It describes emissions that occur when a material transitions from one state to another, such as from solid to liquid, liquid to gas, or vice versa. For example, during the combustion of fuels, a liquid fuel vaporizes before burning, and these volatile components can be considered vaihepäästö. Similarly, in industrial processes involving evaporation or condensation, uncaptured vaporized substances can contribute to vaihepäästö. The control and reduction of vaihepäästö are crucial for minimizing air pollution and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations. Techniques to manage vaihepäästö often involve capturing vapors through condensation, adsorption, or absorption before they are released into the atmosphere.
