Power Station Chimneys are tall structures with a large number of pipes and a furnace at the top. They are used to produce steam to power the turbines in a power station.
A chimney is an architectural structure that is designed to release smoke, gas, or other substances into the air. The term can also refer to all of the components of such an architectural structure (including any accompanying base) that form a smoke stack.
The use of chimneys has been dated as far back as 300 BC from archaeological evidence and on-site experiments with replica chimneys at Baiae near Mount Vesuvius and Herculaneum in Italy.
The use of power station chimneys has been widely criticized as they release toxic chemicals into the atmosphere and are responsible for many deaths. The pollution produced by these chimneys has also been linked to acid rain and global warming, which are major environmental issues.
