Sources of thermal pollution are; solar radiation, power plants, industrial manufacturing facilities, refineries, and stormwater management systems.

Solutions to thermal pollution are; pre-discharge cooling, wastewater recycling, afforestation/reforestation, cogeneration, and water remediation.

Causes of thermal pollution are; deforestation, soil erosion, urban stormwater runoff, geothermal fluid dynamics and unsustainable industrial discharge.

Effects of thermal pollution are; dissolved oxygen (DO) depletion, biodiversity loss, carbon and oxygen cycle alterations, toxin concentration-increase, metabolic and adaptive changes.

Examples of thermal pollution are; heat-induced oxygen depletion, aquatic population decline in nuclear power plant vicinity, sedimentary/thermal water pollution by stormwater runoff, deforestation-induced solar exposure, and localized thermal changes around turbines of hydropower plants.

Thermal pollution of water is a deteriorative process of unsustainable and unnatural temperature change. This article discusses thermal pollution definition

Effects of corrosion are; equipment inefficiency, structural failure/damage, health and safety risks, resource depletion, property devaluation, automobile, ship and aircraft deterioration, and physicochemical alteration.

Prevention of corrosion can be achieved through; appropriate storage, protective coating (painting/galvanization), greasing and oiling, alloying, and use of drying agents.

Types of corrosion are; localized, uniform, galvanic, intergranular, pitting, stress corrosion cracking (SCC), and selective corrosions, respectively.

Causes of corrosion are; high humidity (and temperature), mechanical stress, acidic ambient media, uncoated and irregular metal surfaces, high conductivity and electrochemical potential.
