Factories often release harmful substances into the atmosphere. These substances pollute the air. An engineer wants to reduce all of the air pollution coming from a factory. First, she focuses on pollution from one harmful substance, ash. She places different materials over a model of a chimney to stop particles of ash from getting into the air. She measures the amount of pollution that each material catches and makes a graph of the results. What should the engineer’s next step be?
Find and fix any problems with Material 4.
Make and sell Material 1 to nearby factories.
Test Materials 1 and 2 on a real factory chimney.
Retest the materials with a different type of factory pollution.
