- Concept and Importance of Manufacturing Industries
- Types of Manufacturing Industries
- Factors for Location of Industries
- Focal Studies
- Availability of raw material. Some industries are located near to the source of raw materials, for example most of the processing industries and food manufacturing industries.
- Fuel and power availability. For example location of iron and steel industries in United Kingdom and China.
- Human resources. This helps to the labor supply both skilled and unskilled.
- Availability of capital. This is needed for the investment in the machinery and importation of raw materials.
- Market availability.
- Availability of transport and communication systems.
- Government policies. This helps on balancing the economic development of a certain area and provision of jobs.
- Government stability. Is the ability of government in maintenance of peace of a particular place.
- Mining leads to environment pollution that is water pollution, air pollution, soil pollution and noise pollution.
- Air pollution, which caused by the introduction of greenhouses gases like carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxide.
- Water pollution caused by introduction of hot water and chemicals from the industries.
- Soil pollution due to dumping radioactive materials on the soil.
- Noise pollution due to loud voice from the industries, which can disturb the people.
- Mining causes land dereliction (exhaustion), this destroys the nature of the landscape and leads to mineral resources exhaustion.
- It accelerates deforestation because of clearing of vegetation to establish the mining centers and settlement.
- The size of the land is reduced and the soil structure and texture are destroyed because of the mixture with fragments of rock and hence plant growth cannot take place easily.
- Mining leads to the disappearance of valuable plant species.
- Greenhouse effect and global warming can occur because of energy generating minerals like coal, uranium etc.
- The pits which are flooded with water act as mosquito breeding places and hence accurate the spread of malaria.
- Positive effects involve the use of virgin land which was once useless.
- Gaseous pollutants; Are the pollutants which occur in gaseous form. These include greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide etc, which pollute the air. These pollutants on polluting the air lead to the formation of acidic rainfall and global warming.
- Particulate dust matter and other solid matter are the pollutants, which occur in particle or solid, which emirates from the industries get into the air or water bodies or soil and cause contamination.
- Liquid matters; this includes all forms of molten or semi molten materials (liquid). These involve hot water and chemicals from industries. Hot water leads to thermal pollution of water bodies, which can kill the aquatic animals/organisms because of the sharp rise in temperature.
- Water pollutants cause disease like Cancer, Typhoid, and diarrhea.
- Air pollution can lead to respiratory diseases like bronchitis to employees and people around.
- Soil pollution can cause decline in agricultural production and hence lead to starvation to take place.
- People are also affected by noise and sometimes can lead to problems in the blood circulation. For example Blood pressure and heart attack.
- The combustion system in the engines should be filled with efficient facilities so that the amount of greenhouse can be reduced if not solved totally.
- The industries should be located far away from the residential areas.
- Recycling the wastes for example the metal materials should be recycled so as to reduce wastes.
- There should be other activities developed to avoid over dependency on manufacturing industries only especially in Japan etc. other materials.
- To avoid noise pollution the parts of the engine should be lubricated and materials used should be like bronze, which does not make noise.
- The industrial wastes should be treated to render them harmless to the health of people.
- Alternative energy sources, which are environmentally friendly like solar energy, natural gas, wind, power etc.
