Abstract
The paper presents the results of the investigations of systems approach to air pollution control and urban planning. The problem of environmental pollution and the associated ecological effects are briefly described. The concepts of systems approach and their applications to the current study are explained. The problems of rural and urban planning resulting from rapid industrialisation are discussed. The necessity for considering the environmental impact on the selection of industrial sites, design of processes and the manufacturing methods in the planning stages of industrialisation is explained. Environmental pollution problems from some of the basic industries, viz. Paper and Pulp, Foundries, Iron and Steel, Cement, are discussed. Some of the problems which a developing country should consider, while planning to import technology from industrially advanced countries, are explained.
