Abstract

Coal is an optimum power generation fuel for ASEAN countries in terms of both cost and energy security. However, coal combustion emits air pollutants that are harmful to both human health and the environment. As a consequence, residents have started campaigns against coal-fired power plants (CPPs), which have forced some new CPP projects to be suspended or cancelled. For ASEAN countries, minimizing the emission of air pollutants is a precondition for the future use of CPPs. But the problem is regulating the emission of air pollutants from CPPs. In order to reduce the emission of air pollutants, creating regulations and properly managing and operating CPPs are required. Based on this awareness, regulations on the emission of air pollutants (including emission standards and implementation of the regulations) are surveyed in this study.
执行概要
在成本和能源安全方面,煤炭是东盟国家最理想的发电燃料。然而,煤炭燃烧排放的空气污染物对人类健康和环境都有害。因此,居民们发起了反对燃煤电厂的运动,迫使一些新的燃煤电厂项目暂停或取消。对于东盟国家来说,最大限度地减少空气污染物的排放是未来使用聚苯乙烯的先决条件。但问题是如何规范燃煤电厂的空气污染物排放。为了减少空气污染物的排放,需要制定法规,妥善管理和运行燃煤电厂。基于这种认识,本研究对大气污染物排放法规(包括排放标准和法规执行情况)进行了调查。
