Racine County air quality alert: Foxconn emissions of ozone precursors

Foxconn could increase Racine County’s emissions by 6 percent.  (Milwaukee Business News, 3/14/2018)

Most of the emissions will come from the fabrication plant where Foxconn will actually be building the LCD panels that will eventually become televisions and monitors. The fabrication process involves putting thin-film transistors and color filters on two glass substrates, joining the pieces together, inserting liquid crystals and cutting the displays to size.
