Ecobrick
thumb|Ecobricks are plastic drinking bottles packed with non-biodegradable waste to make a reusable building block.
thumb|Structure in North Wales, UK composed of cob and ecobricks. This project symbolizes plastic sequestration, net-zero construction, as well as collaboration within the community. The 'Y Hwb' earthen roundhouse relates to environmental justice as these houses reduce usage of environmentally harmful building materials, reuses plastic, and utilizes green roofs. This type of housing allows citizens to construct their own homes on an extremely low budget and live there for very ch

baghouse
A baghouse, also known as a baghouse filter, bag filter, or fabric filter is an air pollution control device and dust collector that removes particulates entrained in gas released from commercial processes. Power plants, steel mills, pharmaceutical producers, food manufacturers, chemical producers and other industrial companies often use baghouses to control emission of air pollutants. Baghouses came into widespread use in the late 1970s after the invention of high-temperature fabrics (for use in the filter media) capable of withstanding temperatures over .
