Proximity is a proxy indicator of local traffic-related pollutants that vary by type of roadway, over time, and by region, and that also depend on the pollution reduction technologies and age of local vehicular fleets [Health Effects Institute (HEI) 2009].
The analysis started off by using a series of indicators, taken from different sources, to define the point of emission peculiarity (high mass flow rate emissions and others) and emission factors in reference to the type of process and pollution reduction technologies applied.
With some plants in operation since the early 1950's, single generators have invested hundreds of millions of dollars of new pollution-reduction technology to keep plants running when consumers need them most.
Facilitating the export of state-of-the-art pollution reduction and control technology to Iran, as well as reinvigorating science exchange programs between Iranian and Western scientists working on pollution-related issues, would demonstrate that Washington is seeking to engage on science and technology that has literally become a life-and-death issue for millions of Iranians.
We study the design of an economic incentive based program – a subsidy – to induce adoption of more efficient technology in a pollution reduction program in southern Chile.
As the U.S. under Trump turns increasingly to fossil fuels, including coal, experts warn that it will cede developing cutting-edge technology focusing on pollution reduction and alternative fuels to other nations. .
It ranked the Lincoln higher than the Lexus on all factors: consumer value, hybrid technology, fuel efficiency and pollution reduction.
Traditionally, when the E.P.A. puts forth such a pollution reduction rule, it includes a requirement for polluting entities to purchase existing technology, such as smokestack "scrubbers," to cut pollution.
Reduction technologies and measures are evaluated through the use of unit costs of pollution reduction (UCPR), and the most cost-effective abatement routes are then designed.
