SO2 (Sulfur Dioxide) is a colorless gas with a sharp, suffocating odor. This gas is primarily generated from the combustion of sulfur-containing fossil fuels, such as coal and heavy oil, used by power plants and industrial metal smelting processes. Expressed in ppm or ppb, SO2 is a serious air pollutant that can cause or exacerbate respiratory problems, such as bronchitis and asthma. Beyond direct health impacts, SO2 is a major precursor to the formation of sulfate aerosols and Acid Rain, which damages forests, buildings, and aquatic ecosystems. Strict monitoring of SO2 emissions is fundamental in global air pollution control efforts and is a regulatory priority for environmental protection.
