Methanol economy advantages compared to a hydrogen economy: 1  Efficient energy storage by volume, as compared with compressed hydrogen. 2  A liquid hydrogen infrastructure would be prohibitively expensive. 3  Can be blended with gasoline (for example in M85, a mixture containing 85% methanol and 15% gasoline). 4  User friendly.
Two things contribute to air pollution that can cause an air quality alert: 1  Ground-Level Ozone â High-levels of ground-level ozone are frequently the cause of air quality alerts. 2  Particulate Matter â Particulate matter consists of pollutants such as dust, soot, ash and wood smoke.
If in any area air quality fails to meet national pollution objectives, the Council is legally obliged to declare Air Quality Management Areas (AQMAs) and to develop, in partnership with local communities, Action Plans, for each area, to improve air quality.he Air Quality Strategy proposals aim to protect health and the environment without imposing unacceptable economic or social costs. They form an essential part of the Government's strategy for sustainable development, which has four main aims:
