Abstract: Harmful chemicals in and around chemical industries causes cancer, reproductive damage, breathing problems such as asthma and emphysema, and birth defects, as well as other health problems such as headache, nausea, dizziness, and stress. Chemical industries are also a major source of the gases that causes global warming.Air pollution and climate change are two closely connected environmental concerns. The major source of global climate change is human- lured changes in atmospheric composition. India is making swift progress in terms of economic development but it has also caused change in air quality to reach a global scale. Particulate matter, Ozone, Eutrophication from high emissions of NOxand NH3, CO, CFC, CO2, Pb are the major air pollutants those are released from chemical based industries in Gujarat. The deposition of nitrogen compounds leads to the chemical disruption of a long list of ecosystems on land and in the sea, and results in the impoverishment of biodiversity. In this paper, we have discussed various problems caused to human health due to these emissions and their adverse effects on quality of air. We have also suggested some methods those may be employed to reduce the emission of these pollutants into the atmosphere.
