Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Devices**: The question mentions two devices: cyclone collectors and electrostatic precipitators. 2. **Understand Their Function**: Both of these devices are used in industrial applications to control emissions. They are designed to remove particulate matter from the air. 3. **Analyze the Options**: - **Option 1: Sewage pollution** - This is related to water pollution, not air pollution. - **Option 2: Air pollution** - This relates directly to the removal of particulates from the air. - **Option 3: Pesticide pollution** - This primarily affects soil and water, not air. - **Option 4: Natural pollution** - This involves natural events that contribute to pollution, but does not specifically relate to the devices mentioned. 4. **Conclusion**: Since cyclone collectors and electrostatic precipitators are specifically designed to control air pollution by collecting particulate matter from the air, the correct answer is **Option 2: Air pollution**. ---
