Abstract |
The report covers the impact of the nation's growing requirements for electricity upon the sulfur oxide emissions problem and review the possibilities for abatement of sulfur oxide emissions through the widespread use of nuclear power plants, the use of sulfur-free or low-sulfur fuels, and the development and application of technology to control sulfur oxide emissions. A strategy for the research, development, and demonstration of this technology is presented. Appendixes to the report contain lists of organizations that made presentations and correspondents who supplied information for the study, lists of research and development activities in sulfur oxide pollution control in the United States and abroad, and a selective bibliography.
