Pyrolysis helps in addressing the problem of

AAir pollution
BWater pollution
CMunicipal solid wastes ✓ Correct
DElectronic wastes
Correct answer: (C) Municipal solid wastes
Explanation

Pyrolysis helps manage municipal solid waste by heating it without oxygen into gas, oil and char.

It is a waste treatment method rather than a direct fix for air pollution.

It is not primarily a technique aimed at cleaning polluted water.

Electronic waste needs specialised recovery of metals, which is not the focus here.

The process cuts landfill volume and can recover energy from the waste.

Because oxygen is excluded, pyrolysis differs from ordinary open burning or incineration.
