Abstract |
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has created the Environmental Technology Verification (ETV) Program to facilitate the deployment of innovative or improved environmental technologies through performance verification and dissemination of information. The goal of the ETV Program is to further environmental protection by accelerating the acceptance and use of improved and cost-effective technologies. ETV seeks to achieve this goal by providing high-quality, peer-reviewed data on technology performance to those involved in the design, distribution, financing, permitting, purchase, and use of environmental technologies. The Air Pollution Control Technology (APCT) Verification Center, a center under the ETV Program, is operated by Research Triangle Institute (RTI) in cooperation with EPA's National Risk Management Research Laboratory. The APCT Center has evaluated the performance of a dust suppressant product for control of dust on an unpaved road. |
