| Abstract |
Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are known to be primary precursors to acid rain and the formation of urban and regional ozone. The reduction or elimination of these pollutants, found primarily in combustion emissions, is required in the new Clean Air Act, as well as by local regulations. It is also prudent to look beyond the current legislation in the development of new technologies which will satisfy increasingly stringent control requirements. Fuels containing high levels of nitrogen, such as coal, are particularly susceptible to high NOx emissions. Coal is, however, a very abundant and inexpensive fuel. A continually increasing demand for electric power coupled with the uncertainties and expense of alternate generation techniques makes it clear that the combustion of coal and other fossil fuels will be necessary well into the next century. |
