Pollution Control Technologies
Summary
This guide explains how to specify up to three pollution control technologies, such as SOx scrubbers or particulate filters, when providing environmental data for energy technologies in the TED system.
Key insights
- Users can specify up to three pollution control technologies, such as particulate filters or SOx scrubbers, to reduce emissions from an energy technology. These are selected from the TED tree under the 'TED Pollution Control' category.
- The absence of listed pollution controls indicates that the energy technology either lacks such controls or that they are integrated in a way that the reduction factor is indistinguishable, citing catalytic converters or lean burn engines in cars as examples.
- When multiple control technologies affect a single pollutant, the system assumes the emission reductions are additive, calculated by subtracting the sum of the reduction factors for each control from one and multiplying by the uncontrolled emission.
