Description
Munshi Md Rasel, Daniel Cohan, Daniel Tong, and Lucas Henneman show that cuts at coal power plants could help US counties meet the new fine particle air standard. The tightened national cap has pushed a check of which fixes can bring lagging counties in line. The study came out in twenty twenty-six.
A chemical transport model traced plant shares of fine particles, and a leaner model pinned down single plants. Nine counties could have met the cap if sulfur output ended at a set of plants. Retiring them would also dodge huge tonnages of sulfur, nitrogen oxides, and carbon dioxide, plus many early deaths a year among older people, the authors estimate.
