| integrated pollution control A procedure whereby all major emissions to land, air, and water are considered simultaneously and not in isolation to avoid situations in which one control measure for one medium adversely affects another | integrált szennyezésellenőrzés |

| pollution abatement The reduction in degree or intensity of pollution in soil, rivers, lakes, seas, atmosphere, etc. | szennyezés elhárítás |
| pollution abatement equipment Equipment for the reduction in degree or intensity of pollution | szennyezéselhárító berendezés |
| pollution abatement waste Wastes resulting from the operations of pollutant removal from industries, cleaning processes, etc. | hulladék eltávolításból származó szennyezés |
| pollution control Chemical and physical methods to lessen discharges of most pollutants; for carbon dioxide there is, at present, no economic or practical way to reduce the quantities discharged except by reduced fossil fuel usage. Most specific means for removing pollutants from emissions include flue-gas desulphurisation, fluidised combustion, catalytic converters and the redesign of equipment, such as furnace burners and car engines, to lessen the production of pollutants | szennyezés elleni védelem |
| pollution control equipment Devices for the reduction and/or removal of those emissions to the environment which have the potential to cause pollution | szennyezésszabályozó berendezés |
| pollution control investment Securities held for the production of income in the form of interest and dividends with the aim of controlling or reducing pollution or substances in the environment deemed harmful to human health and natural resources | szennyezésellenőrzési beruházás |
| pollution control measure Procedure or course of action taken to curb or reduce human-made or human-alteration of the physical, biological, chemical and radiological integrity of air, water and other media | szennyezésellenőrzési intézkedés |
| pollution control regulation A body of rules or orders prescribed by government, management or an international organization or treaty in which limits are established for the emission of substances that harm or adversely alter the environment and human health | szennyezésellenorzési szabályozás |
| pollution control technology Methods used to reduce the amount of contaminants discharged from a source | szennyezésellenőrzési technológia |
| pollution cost The amount of money incurred as a result of human-made or human-induced alteration of the physical, biological, chemical, and radiological integrity of air, water, and other media | szennyezés költsége |
| pollution criterion Standard established for certain pollutants which limits their concentration | szennyezésmeghatározó szempont |
| pollution effect The main pollution effects concern human health and cover all aspects of the physical environment - air, water and land, including the effects of climate change. Human activities which are sources of pollution arise from domestic, commercial, industrial and military sectors and their effects are influenced by various issues, trends and public sector programmes, such as safe water and food, management of waste, increasing use of chemicals in agriculture, and urbanization. Types of pollutants which are negatively impacting health include litter, toxic chemicals, nuclear waste, lead, spoil from mining, food and water contaminants; and the polluting effects of over-population | szennyezés hatása |
| pollution indicator Organisms, mostly plants, which are most sensitive to slight changes in environmental factors. When identified their reaction can serve as an early warning of the endangerment of the health of a community | szennyezési indikátor |
| pollution insurance A commercial agreement which provides protection against the risks, or a particular risk, associated with pollution, toxic waste disposal or related concerns | szennyezésbiztosítás |
| pollution liability Liability for injuries arising from the release of hazardous substances or pollutants or contaminants | szennyezésért való felelősség |
| pollution load The amount of stress placed upon an ecosystem by pollution, physical or chemical, released into it by man-made or natural means | szennyezési terhelés |
| pollution measurement The assessment of the concentration of pollutants for a given time in a given point | szennyezésmérés |
| pollution monitoring The quantitative or qualitative measure of the presence, effect or level of any polluting substance in air, water or soil | szennyezés monitoring |
| pollution norm | szennyezési norma |
| pollution prevention Eliminating the production of hazardous wastes and greenhouse gases at their source, within the production process. This can often be achieved through a variety of relatively simple strategies, including minor changes in manufacturing processes, substitution of non-polluting products for polluting products, and simplification of packaging. Companies practicing waste reduction have saved hundreds of millions of dollars, and used it to catalyze employee involvement and eliminate the need for expensive end-of-the-pipe filtering | szennyezés megelőzése/akadályozása |
| pollution risk Probability of harm to human health, property or the environment posed by the introduction of an undesirable substance into the ecosystem | szennyezési kockázat |
| pollution sink Vehicle for removal of a chemical or gas from the atmosphere-biosphere-ocean system, in which the substance is absorbed into a permanent or semi-permanent repository, or else transformed into another substance. A carbon sink, for example, might be the ocean (which absorbs and holds carbon from other parts of carbon cycle) or photosynthesis (which converts atmospheric carbon into plant material). Sinks are a fundamental factor in the ongoing balance which determines the concentration of every greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. If the sink is greater than the sources of a gas, its concentration in the atmosphere will decrease; if the source is greater than the sink, the concentration will increase | szennyezés nyelő |
