Abstract

Contemporary debate over major clean air issues has kept the control of nitrogen oxides (NO~x~) in the forefront of public interest. While amendments to the Clean Air Act, new rules, programs, and policies emerge in response to concern for acid deposition, ozone non–attainment, global warming, and public health and welfare, it is anticipated that NO~x~ control technology will be applied to a greater degree. However, existing regulations, policy and market forces are already forcing technologicaladvances. This article presents a summary of the current regulatory situation and looks ahead at the Clean Air act reauthorization. The article also presents an overview of stationary source control for NO~x~ emissions.
