Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) were developed and introduced in the late 1980s to serve as replacements for ozone-depleting substances (ODS) primarily used in the air conditioning, refrigeration, aerosols, fire suppression, and foam blowing industries. Each of the 18 regulated substances were assigned a corresponding MTEVe exchange value.

Despite these claims, burning waste coal is still just burning fossil fuel and results in the emissions of significant amounts of air pollution including ozone precursors, fine particulates, acid gasses, heavy metals, and vast amounts of carbon pollution. Assuming that is the case, the question then is why is it not already being captured?

NOx plays a role in forming ground level ozone and final particulates (PM2.5), both of which are human health hazards. For the first 20 years of federal regulation, Congress set the NOx standards for new cars itself. That’s quite different from the standards for industrial pollution sources, which Congress has always delegated to EPA.
