Survey of Air Pollution Control Technology, Research and Development; Public and Private Roles in Undertaking and Stimulating Innovation: Survey of Eight Air Pollution Control Technology Innovations

摘要

This report discusses fabric filters; spray drying; atmospheric and pressurized atmospheric fluidized bed combustion; hydrodesulfurization; side-stream separators; cat-ox scrubbing; and physical coal cleaning. Beyond brief description of the technology, the report emphasizes goals and motivations of the development and participants in the development. The report is part of a study that examines the regulatory, political and market climate in which air pollution control technology is developed, and which will make recommendations to the U.S. Congress about improving that climate, if necessary.
