monitorage : Ce terme, créé en français pour éviter l'emprunt «monitoring», est cantonné à l'heure actuelle aux domaines de la médecine et de l'électroacoustique. Il n'est pas attesté dans celui de la protection de l'environnement, où le besoin d'un tel emprunt déguisé ne se fait pas sentir. 2, record 1, French, - surveillance

Different types of air pollution control systems such as multicyclones, fabric filters, wet scrubbers etc. can be used each having its own advantage and disadvantage. A properly designed multicyclone would be a good choice for controlling particulate emissions. It is expected that such a device would be able to conveniently meet the prescribed standard. 7, record 2, English, - multiple%20cyclone

Les dépoussiéreurs multicellulaires sont constitués par des tubes fonctionnant en parallèle et groupés dans un même «casing». L'entrée des gaz se fait par une gaine commune, le flux gazeux se répartissant dans les divers tubes. Les gaz épurés sortant des tubes centraux passent dans une gaine collectrice commune. Les poussières captées tombent dans une ou plusieurs trémies et sont évacuées grâce à un système classique à sas. 5, record 2, French, - multicyclone

In response to Inco’s October 1977 announcement that it was laying off 3,000 workers, Alastair Gillespie, Federal Minister of Energy. Mines and Resources, suggested reduced pollution control standards be allowed for industries facing financial difficulties. Reluctant to impose restraints on industry, government officials are often eager to reduce their demands when business reacts unfavourably to legislation. 1, record 3, English, - pollution%20control%20standard

Au niveau mondial, la dépollution industrielle de l'air est donc aux mains des industriels japonais et allemands. Dans ces deux pays, les normes antipollution sont depuis longtemps drastiques (sic) pour des raisons différentes : énorme densité de population urbaine pour les premiers, utilisation intensive de charbon et de lignite pour les seconds. 1, record 3, French, - norme%20antipollution
