what are the environmental effects of manufacturing processes?

during manufacturing processec, the enviroment go true many effects some of theese effects are pollution of the athmosohere that is the oxygen issometimes being polluted and alsoif waste is not mannaged, it can also cause land pollution thats land degradation.

The only environmental concerns that come to mind are emissions and fuel.\n\nThere are no catalytic converters on aircraft, so any unburnt hydrocarbons or NOx/SOx/COx would be released into the air.\n\nOn the fuel side, most piston aircraft use leaded fuels, so when fuel is spilled or leaks, lead is entering the ground.  The large majority of fuel used in aviation is jet fuel, which is pretty close to diesel or kerosene and so no more harmful than those two.  Ultimately, no aircraft owner is deliberately dumping their leaded fuel, because it's damned expensive. :P

INTRODUCTION\nPollution, contamination of Earth’s environment with materials that interfere with human health, the quality of life, or the natural functioning of ecosystems (living organisms and their physical surroundings). Although some environmental pollution is a result of natural causes such as volcanic eruptions, most is caused by human activities.\n\nThere are two main categories of polluting materials, or pollutants. Biodegradable pollutants are materials, such as sewage, that rapidly decompose by natural processes. These pollutants become a problem when added to the environment faster than they can decompose (see Sewage Disposal). Nondegradable pollutants are materials that either do not decompose or decompose slowly in the natural environment. Once contamination occurs, it is difficult or impossible to remove these pollutants from the environment. \n\nNondegradable compounds such as dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), dioxins, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and radioactive materials can reach dangerous levels of accumulation as they are passed up the food chain into the bodies of progressively larger animals. For example, molecules of toxic compounds may collect on the surface of aquatic plants without doing much damage to the plants. A small fish that grazes on these plants accumulates a high concentration of the toxin. Larger fish or other carnivores that eat the small fish will accumulate even greater, and possibly life-threatening, concentrations of the compound. This process is known as bioaccumulation.\n\nTYPES OF POLLUTION\nPollution exists in many forms and affects many different aspects of Earth’s environment. Point-source pollution comes from specific, localized, and identifiable sources, such as sewage pipelines or industrial smokestacks. Nonpoint-source pollution comes from dispersed or uncontained sources, such as contaminated water runoff from urban areas or automobile emissions.\n\nThe effects of these pollutants may be immediate or delayed. Primary effects of pollution occur immediately after contamination occurs, such as the death of marine plants and wildlife after an oil spill at sea. Secondary effects may be delayed or may persist in the environment into the future, perhaps going unnoticed for many years. DDT, a nondegradable compound, seldom poisons birds immediately, but gradually accumulates in their bodies. Birds with high concentrations of this pesticide lay thin-shelled eggs that fail to hatch or produce deformed offspring. These secondary effects, publicized by Rachel Carson in her 1962 book, Silent Spring, threatened the survival of species such as the bald eagle and peregrine falcon, and aroused public concern over the hidden effects of nondegradable chemical compounds.\n\nA  Air Pollution \nHuman contamination of Earth’s atmosphere can take many forms and has existed since humans first began to use fire for agriculture, heating, and cooking. During the Industrial Revolution of the 18th and 19th centuries, however, air pollution became a major problem. As early as 1661 British author and founding member of the British Royal Society John Evelyn reported of London in his treatise Fumifugium, “… the weary Traveller, at many Miles distance, sooner smells, than sees the City to which he repairs. This is that pernicious Smoake which fullyes all her Glory, superinducing a sooty Crust or Furr upon all that it lights.…”\n\nUrban air pollution is commonly known as smog. The dark London smog that Evelyn wrote of is generally a smoky mixture of carbon monoxide and organic compounds from incomplete combustion (burning) of fossil fuels such as coal, and sulfur dioxide from impurities in the fuels. As the smog ages and reacts with oxygen, organic and sulfuric acids condense as droplets, increasing the haze. Smog developed into a major health hazard by the 20th century. In 1948, 19 people died and thousands were sickened by smog in the small U.S. steel-mill town of Donora, Pennsylvani

Lean Manufacturing is a business initiative to reduce waste in manufactured products. The basic idea is to reduce the cost systematically, throughout the product and production process, by means of a series of process reviews.\nThe crucial insight is that most costs are assigned when a product is designed. Often an engineer will specify familiar, safe materials and processes rather than inexpensive, efficient ones. This reduces project risk, that is, the cost to the engineer, while increasing financial risks, and decreasing profits. Good organizations develop and review checklists to review product designs.

There are many effects on the environment depending mostly on where the road is built.  The first effect would be to the wildlife of the area.  When trees and land are cleared for road construction, it results in the loss of habitat for many organisms.  For example, a single oak tree can support thousands of insects and hundreds of birds.  By removing that one tree, you have possible destroyed these organism's habitat.  Also, cutting down trees and clearing land add carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.  Tree and other plants use carbon dioxide in photosynthesis.  They store some in their bodies.  This is released into the atmosphere which can add to the global warming problem.  That along with all the construction equipment letting out carbon monoxide and dioxide during the construction phase.  And that is just the surface of what is caused.

Most of the processes are actually physical but still there are some chemical processes; most chemical processes are intermediate reactions to clean up a product or to add some chemical for enhancing specifications.
