    B)  gases like sulphur dioxide

    C)  gases like nitrous oxide

    D)  particulate matter of the size 5 micrometers or above.

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    : A scrubber can remove gases like sulphur dioxide. In a scrubber, the exhaust is passed through a spray of water or lime water. Water dissolves gases. The particles also become heavy and fall down. Lime reacts with sulphur dioxide to produce a precipitate of calcium sulphate or sulphite, used to remove soluble gases and particles.
