Why is control equipment listed at the pollutant level? Why not at the emission release point level?
Most control equipment reduces emissions of one or some – but not all – of the pollutants produced by a particular process at an emission unit. In many cases, emissions of other pollutants are not reduced by the particular control equipment or control approach, and so these emissions should not be incorrectly reported as being controlled.
