Gas release refers to the process where gases are emitted from a substance or system into the surrounding environment. This can occur naturally, such as when volcanic eruptions release gases like sulfur dioxide, or through human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide and other pollutants. In industrial settings, gas release can happen during manufacturing processes or chemical reactions. Proper management and monitoring are essential to minimize environmental impact and ensure safety, as uncontrolled gas release can lead to health hazards and contribute to climate change.
