contents We discuss two approaches which, by applying the screening method, permit one to include the long range proton-proton (pp) Coulomb force in proton-deuteron (pd) momentum-space scattering calculations. In the first one, based on Alt-Grassberger-Sandhas (AGS) equation, presented in Phys. Rev. C{\bf{71}}, 054005 (2005) and {\bf{73}}, 057001 (2006), one needs to renormalize elastic scattering amplitude before calculating observables. In the second treatment, proposed by us in Eur. Phys. Journal A {\bf{41}}, 369 (2009), {\bf{41}}, 385 (2009), and arXiv:2310.03433 [nucl.th], this renormalization is avoided. For the proton induced deuteron breakup reaction both approaches require renormalization of the corresponding transition amplitudes. We derive the basic equations underlying both methods under the assumption that all contributing partial wave states are included and explain why in our approach renormalization of the elastic scattering amplitude is superfluous. We show that in order to take into account in the screening limit all partial waves it is required that four additional terms, based on the 3-dimensional and partial-wave projected pp Coulomb t-matrices, identical for both approaches, must appear in transition amplitudes. We investigate importance of these terms for elastic pd scattering below the breakup threshold.
