摘要
New U.S. EPA regulations place caps on the levels of mercury that can be emitted from coal-burning power plants, with targets to hit in 2010 and 2018. To meet these targets, technologies already available to reduce other pollutants, such as SO 2 and NO x, will probably be modified to reduce mercury as a cobenefit. The authors review the effectiveness of these technologies at holding the line on mercury and explore how they can be improved for deeper emission cuts. © 2006 American Chemical Society.
