Abstract
Research Overview
This Frost & Sullivan research service entitled Advances in Power Plant
Emission Reduction Technologies provides an overview of emerging pollutant
control technologies for power plants along with key drivers, restraints, and
analysis of trends witnessed in the pollutant control industry. In this
research service, Frost & Sullivan's expert analysts thoroughly examine the
following multipollutant control technologies: ECO Process, Enviroscrub
Process, and Patented Precombustion Process for Treatment of Coal.
This analysis is available through our Environment & Energy Growth Partnership
Services program. With this program, clients receive industry-leading market
research such as this, along with technical and econometric data as well as
many interactive features including Analyst Inquiry Time and Client Councils.
