Abstract
Industry, as one of the economy pillars, is to be accounted for the development and improvement of a certain country's well-being. Unfortunately, the prosperity has and still is accompanied with direct and/or indirect negative environmental impact, especially in the Western Balkans countries with economies in transition. In this chapter, we focus on the parameters necessary to identify, describe, parameterize, monitor and prevent pollution deriving from industry for the purpose of alleviating the process of decision making relevant to environmental protection. Illustrated are examples from several industrial sectors including energy generation, public transportation, cement industry and ferrous metallurgy
