SYMPOSIUM ON LOW POLLUTION POWER SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT, DECEMBER 2--3, 1975, ROME, ITALY

The Third Symposium on Low Pollution Power Systems Development (LPPSD) was organized by the Ministry of Transport of Italy and held in Rome, December 2 and 3, 1975. Attendence was limited to representatives of the various participating governments. Each of the representatives briefly reviewed the status and plans for research on low pollution power systems for vehicles. A panel discussion of specific action items identified at the 1974 Dusseldorf Symposium included the following topics: (1) interaction between LPPSD and research safety vehicle projects; (2) analysis of exhaust emissions test methods and procedures - Europe and U.S.A.; (3) the urban and freeway traffic noise problem; and (4) multilateral cooperative research and development projects. Discussion of scope, content, and timing of future symposia revealed satisfaction with the results to date, but identified problem areas and a desire to improve future international cooperation to alleviate and share the expense of future cooperation. Each presentation is summarized along with the pertinent comments, questions, and items of discussion. Wherever possible specific data, principal conclusions, and key illustrations are included. The Appendix is a list of the attendees who participated in the Symposium. A separate abstract was prepared for each of the fourteen presentations for ERDA Energy Research Abstracts (ERA).
