This volume is part of the Energy/Environment R&D Decision Series. The series presents the key issues and findings of the Interagency Energy/Environment Research and Development Programs in a format conductive to efficient information transfer. The Interagency Program, planned and coordinated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), was inaugurated in the fiscal year 1975. Research projects support by the program range from the analysis of health and environmental effects of energy systems to the development of environmental control technologies. Flue-gas desulfurization (FGD) is a set of technologies used to remove sulfur dioxide (SO2) from exhaust flue gases of fossil-fuel power plants, and from the emissions of other sulfur oxide emitting processes (e.g trash incineration). In 1970, the U.S. Congress passed the Clean Air Act of 1970 (CAA). The law authorized development of federal regulations in the United States covering emissions from both stationary (industrial) and mobile sources, which were subsequently published by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). In 1977, Congress amended the law to require more stringent controls on air emissions. In response to the CAA requirements, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) authorized the formation of the PTC 40 Standards Committee in 1978. This committee first convened in 1979 with the purpose of developing a standardized "procedure for conducting and reporting performance tests of FGD systems and reporting the results in terms of the following categories: (a) emissions reduction, (b) consumable and utilities, (c) waste and by-product characterization and amount." The first code was adopted by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) in 1991. As of June 1973, there were 42 FGD units in operation, 36 in Japan and 6 in the United States.
