You don't. Get far enough to wear a gas mask or just eat food as you move through it.

Hmm, I never gave that a thought about using the gas as a resource. I like your thinking and I hope they make it so.

I can't see it being a resource, because those emitters are so varied in shape and size. Not impossible, but I wouldn't count on it.

I think the toxic vents are just meant to be a "higher level" threat/obstacle than the gas plants. They aren't one you can remove, just manage.

I don't remember when, but the devs have said they plan to add a way to deal with the poison pillars at some point. Considering their varied shapes and sizes (if I was designing a solution), I would assume they'd add a new machine that would go on a "node" somewhere in the gas. The machine could harvest the gas and effectively turn off the noxious area while it is running.

Hmm, fair enough, though still not necessarily a resource.

Could always be some kind of machine that requires a water input and sucks the poison from the air.
That way it means nothing for exploration (hence Gas Masks), but if your factory encroaches on it, you can clean it up.
