Definicija: 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.

Definicija: Kemijske in fizikalne metode za zmanjševanje izpustov onesnaževal. Trenutno ni nobenega ekonomičnega ali praktičnega načina za zmanjševanje količine izpustov ogljikovega dioksida, razen z zmanjševanjem porabe fosilnih goriv. Najbolj značilna sredstva za zmanjševanje proizvodnje onesnaževal in s tem za odstranjevanje onesnaževal iz emisij so: odstranjevanje žvepla iz zgorelega plina, zvrtinčeno izgorevanje, katalizatorji in predelava opreme, kot so gorilniki in avtomobilski motorji.

Definicija: 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.

Definicija: Predpisi, notranji in mednarodni, ki določajo meje za emisije, ki so škodljive ali ki nevarno poškodujejo okolje ter človekovo zdravje.

Definicija: Devices for the reduction and/or removal of those emissions to the environment which have the potential to cause pollution.

Definicija: Naprave za zmanjševanje in/ali odstranjevanje emisij v okolju, ki lahko povzročijo onesnaženja.

Definicija: 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.

Definicija: Postopek, ki upošteva vse emisije, v tla, ozračje in vodo hkrati, ne pa vsake posebej. Tako se izognemo situaciji, kjer bi določen ukrep za zaščito enega od sredstev (tla, voda, zrak) prizadel drugega.

Definicija: The terms of reference of the Committee shall be as follows: 1. to advise the Commission on all problems concerning the implementation of Community measures for the control and reduction of pollution caused by oil and other harmful substances discharged at sea; 2. to allow the collection of existing information and experience gained in the Member States, on ways of controlling and reducing pollution caused by oil and other harmful substances discharged at sea, thus facilitating the coordination of measures taken or planned at national, international or Community level.
