    Abstract: Air pollution includes emissions from two sources: fixed sources and moving sources. A fixed source could be an electric power generation facility or a lime kiln. A moving source can be a tail pipe such as one on an automobile. The fixed source's emissions are redirected downward into a depleted hydrocarbon reserve through an injection well. The moving source is attached to a Carbonator which takes calcium oxide from the lime kiln and carbon dioxide from the moving source to produce calcium carbonate. This removes two sources of air pollution, first the use of the Carbonator system to remove Carbon Dioxide Emissions into the Atmosphere as described in the Application and secondly the total injection of all smokestack effluents into depleted reservoirs, removing the smokestack and in an electrical generating station HVDC transmission lines are run to the displaced smokestack, and is thus a solution to air pollution.
