Pollution Control Technologies
Summary
The guide explains the process for selecting up to three pollution control technologies, such as SOx scrubbers or particulate filters, within the TED system to account for emission reductions. It clarifies that the absence of listed controls indicates either no controls exist or they are integrated into the technology, such as catalytic converters in cars. For cases where multiple controls affect a single pollutant, the system assumes emission reductions are additive.
Key insights
- Users can specify a maximum of three pollution control technologies, such as particulate filters or SOx scrubbers, to reduce emissions from an energy technology.
- The absence of listed pollution controls implies that the technology either lacks such controls or they are integrated in a way that the reduction factor is indistinguishable, citing lean burn engines and catalytic converters in cars as examples.
- When multiple control technologies affect the same pollutant, the system calculates the total emission reduction as an additive process.
