Air Quality IX October 21-23 will aid in Your MATS Decisions
Air Quality IX will be very helpful to power plants grappling with the complex decisions generated by MATS. Here is a road map to help utilities organize their time at the conference. The MATS Global Decisions Positioning System™ (GDPS) can be used to determine which stands and which papers will be of importance.
MATS GDPS
Decisions on removing HCl, mercury and other toxic metals impact many other decisions relative to the power plant. Speeches, exhibits and posters to be presented at the Crystal Gateway Marriott in Arlington, VA have been listed in such a way to conform with the new McIlvaine Global Decisions Positioning System (GDPS).
