I just like to create as much pollution in the factory as possible.
I think, biters actually should cough their lungs out due to that amount of pollution.

I know right? Who cares about pollution when we have laser defense turrets with maxed out firing speed and damage?

Pollution is more about noise than chemicals.
Small biters like minimalistic drone of small factories.
Big biters prefer industrial breakcore.

i've been seeing this on the forums and it seems counter intuitive, sure trees would absorb noise but water would keep it going. also the way it spreads is how air pollution would if there wasn't much wind, also noise pollution is easier to ignore than smog in your lungs....
is there any dev statement about pollution being more noise?

Electric mines and pumpjacks wouldn't produce much (if any) air pollution, though.
Pollution spreads like smoke (there's wind, but it's more of a bloated placeholder than an actual mechanic), but if pollution was just about air quality, it wouldn't make sense for the most polluting machines to be the ones that don't emit any chemicals. It would be chemical plants and refineries - machines that have relatively low pollution.

Pollution in Factorio contains everything -- air pollution, water pollution, noise, visual ugliness and negative psionic waves emitted by the machines
.

Huh? If you did it properly, they cannot await to visit your beatiful creations. But they are a bit clumsy and might break something.
