Recently, air pollution is a universal problematic concern which adversely affects global warming and more importantly human body systems. This chapter focuses on the importance of air quality, and indicates the negative effects of emissions originated from both municipal and industrial wastewaters to atmosphere. More importantly, the improvements in wastewater treatment plants to eliminate the crisis of emissions on environment and human health is also clarified. Urbanization and distribution of industrials in urban areas influence the air pollution via releasing pollutants and contaminants to environment. The pollutant emissions from wastewaters are volatile organic compounds, Greenhouse gases and other inorganic pollutants (heavy metals) which are causes to many reactions through atmosphere, then products detriment whole environment and living organisms including human. Moreover, contaminants are also released into air from influents of municipal wastewaters and they are considered as the main resources of most threatened infections in human and other animals. As conclusion, because of the persistently development urbanization and industrialization as the wastewater pollutant sources, the environmental technology regarding wastewater treatments must depend on prevention of emissions to air before thinking on cost and good quality effluents.

Three oxygenated Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): acetone, ethanol, and methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), frequently used in both industrial and domestic activities, were subjected to a kinetic study of catalytic oxidation with air on a platinum wire heated in isothermal regime. An isothermal technique previously described for volatile hydrocarbons was extended to the oxygenated volatile compounds obtaining valuable information on the ignition and subsequent combustion on and around the platinum surface. From the measurements of the electrical characteristics of the heating circuit, several properties like the critical ignition temperature, thermal flux emitted by the chemical reaction and induction time were measured. Their dependence on the gaseous mixture pressure, fuel concentration and platinum catalyst temperature resulted in the overall activation parameters of the combustion process.

“…For instance, in a two-step process methane is first decomposed into synthesis gas (CO + H 2 ) via e.g. dry reforming CH 4 + CO 2 3 2CO + 2H 2 (DH1 = 247.0 kJ mol À1 ) (1) and partial oxidation, CH 4 + 0.5O 2 3 CO + 2H 2 (DH1 = À36.0 kJ mol À1 ), (2) which both require catalysts, 4 or via the traditional steam reforming 5,6 CH 4 + H 2 O 3 CO + 3H 2 (DH1 = 206.2 kJ mol À1 )…”
