| Abstract |
The National Clean Air Coalition (NCAC), a non-profit environmental organization, contacted the Environmental Protection Agency about a prototype emission control system they had developed and had operating on a 1974 Ford Pinto. The system was aimed at emission levels of .41 grams per mile hydrocarbons (HC), 3.4 grams per mile carbon monoxide (CO), and .4 grams per mile oxides of nitrogen (NOx). Confirmatory testing at the EPA laboratory was requested, and the Emission Control Technology Division agreed to conduct an evaluation test program as part of its continual technology assessment function. The EPA receives information about many systems which appear to offer potential for emission reduction or fuel economy improvement. In those cases in which review by EPA technical staff suggests that the data available shows promise, attempts are made to schedule tests at the EPA Emissions Laboratory. The results of all such test programs are set forth in a series of Technology Assessment and Evaluation Reports, of which this report is one. |
