The System of Air Quality and Weather Forecasting And Research (SAFAR) is a national initiative introduced by the Ministry of Earth Sciences (MoES) to measure the air quality of a metropolitan city, by measuring the overall pollution level and the location-specific air quality of the city.
The system is indigenously developed by the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM), Pune and is operationalized by the India Meteorological Department (IMD).

Flu-Gas Desulfurization (FGD) is a set of technologies used to remove sulphur-dioxide (SO2) from exhaust flue gases of fossil-fuel power plants, as well as from the emissions of other SOx emitting processes. Common methods used in it are wet scrubbing method, Wet and Dry lime scrubbing method, SNOX method, Dry sorbent injection method, etc. For a typical coal-fired power station, FGD system may remove 90% or more of the SO2 in the flue gases.
