To:
Docket
From:
EPA,
Clean
Air
Markets
Division
Subject:
References
for
the
NOx
and
SO2
Control
Design
and
Performance
Levels
Used
in
the
Proposed
IAQR
Date:
January
28,
2004
The
purpose
of
this
memo
is
to
record
references
to
the
technical
publications
that
support
the
design
and
performance
levels
for
the
NOx
and
SO2
control
technologies
used
in
the
proposed
IAQR.
These
design
and
performance
levels
are
described
in
the
IAQR
Section
"
Performance
and
Applicability
of
Pollution
Control
Technologies
for
EGUs."
A
considerable
amount
of
published
technical
literature
is
available
in
the
industry
that
supports
these
design
and
performance
levels.
References
to
some

this
literature
are
