You have all the answers in the thread you mentioned. At current stage of Corona development you can only fake volumetric effects by animating a plane with motion blur enabled.

You do it the same way except you set world-space noise map as opacity for the animated plane. It requires lots of experiments. :)

there is no way how to do it reasonably until participating media are added (it is already making its way through the list of things to implement)
