二氧化钛脱除高温烟气中的氯化氢

HCl是城市垃圾焚烧产生的主要气体污染物之一。将一种新型脱氯剂TiO2引入到垃圾焚烧系统中,并与其他脱氯剂的性能进行比较。研究了不同脱氯剂使用量、不同反应温度和不同HCl气体浓度对TiO2、CaO和CaTiO3脱氯效果的影响。结果显示,TiO2能在高温(800~1 000℃)、高HCl浓度(1 303.6~1 629.5 mg/m3)下获得较好的脱氯效果。与传统的脱氯剂CaO相比,TiO2更适合于高温烟气脱氯,其在1 000℃时的氯容(36.3 mg HCl/g TiO2)几乎是相同情况下的CaO氯容(9.3 mg HCl/g CaO)的4倍。而CaTiO3的脱氯效果不但受到自身分解效率的影响,还受到TiO2和CaO脱氯效果的影响,其脱氯效果较差。     

新型转式垃圾焚烧过程中脱氯脱硫机理的研究

为了探讨有机垃圾焚烧过程钙基添加剂对HCl，SO_x生成特性的影响，分别在自行设计的中空水冷转式垃圾焚烧炉和固定床加热炉中进行了一系列的实验，研究结果表明新型转式焚烧炉具有强化传热传质特性，能提高HCl、SO_x的脱除率，可抑制有害气体的生成；同时也研究了 HCl，SO₂气体同时存在时，钙基添加剂对脱氯脱硫效率的影响规律。     

MnO2对煤粉中CaO固硫效率影响机理

采用热力学计算和实验方法对钙硫比n（CaO）/n（S）=2.0条件下不同钙基固硫剂的固硫效果进行了比较,发现：CaO的固硫效率最高。以CaO为固硫剂,研究了添加剂MnO2对CaO固硫效果的影响。结果表明,加入MnO2可以提高CaO的固硫效率,且其含量为1%时对CaO固硫的促进效果最佳。这是因为煤粉燃烧过程中MnO2将逐级分解,分解产物依次为Mn2O3和Mn3O4,锰的氧化物一方面可以催化CaO的固硫反应,另一方面,Mn3O4本身也参与到固硫反应之中,生成MnSO4,从而促进钙基固硫剂的固硫效果。

垃圾焚烧过程中影响重金属分布因素的研究

在转式垃圾焚烧炉和固定床加热炉中，研究了有机垃圾焚烧过程中温度、水分、无机氯及有机氯对几种重金属分布的影响。研究结果表明，焚烧垃圾过程中焚烧温度对重金属分布特性的影响特性不一，重金属锌和铅容易转移到气相中去，而重金属镍和铬大部分是以固态形式残留在底渣中；水能与重金属及其化合物发生反应，引起物质转变，影响重金属的分布；氯的存在也影响重金属的分布特性，氯的参与使重金属更易向飞灰或烟气中迁移。     

化工制药工艺残渣燃烧过程固氯研究

采用管式固定床反应器对化工制药工艺残渣的燃烧分解进行了实验研究,进一步通过加入氧化钙/碳酸钙来防止燃烧过程残渣中氯的释放.实验结果表明,残渣在燃烧时氯主要以氯化氢形式排出,加入固氯剂后能有效地抑制氯化氢的生成,且固氯效果随着钙化物投加量的增加而明显提高.当氧化钙/残渣比(质量比)达到0.8时,固氯率可达97%以上;当碳酸钙/残渣比(质量比)提高到2.0时,固氯率为76%.与此对应的Ca/Cl摩尔比分别为30和40.继续增加钙投加量,固氯效果基本不变.同时发现添加一定量的木屑在助燃的同时有助于提高固氯效果.     

超临界水无害化共处理PVC和医疗垃圾焚烧飞灰的可行性探讨

采用超临界水氧化降解PVC同时无害化处理医疗垃圾焚烧飞灰,利用PVC脱氯形成的中间产物盐酸提取医疗垃圾焚烧飞灰中的重金属,达到飞灰无害化的目的。结果显示,超临界水可以将飞灰颗粒打碎,从而提高盐酸提取重金属的速率和效果,但是在超临界水中还存在重金属的固定过程,过长的反应时间和过高的反应温度都会降低重金属的提取效率。在提取过程中,Cu和Zn优先于Pb被盐酸浸出,而Pb被浸出后很容易被超临界水进一步固定。综合考虑重金属在超临界水中的变化特性,总结出超临界水处理飞灰和PVC的最佳条件为:PVC与飞灰质量比0.5:1,温度400℃,提取时间90 min。处理后的飞灰再次经过水洗后,其重金属浸出浓度低于USEPA规定的限制值。本研究为飞灰的无害化处理提供一条新的思路。

Low-temperature dechlorination of hexachlorobenzene on solid supports and the pathway hypothesis

The dechlorination of HCB was carried out under low-temperature and oxygen deficient conditions on different solid supports such as SiO(2), CaO, CaSiO(3), cement and treated fly ash (tFA). All the tested supports except SiO(2) showed a HCB dechlorination potential. The dechlorination efficiencies (D(1)) of HCB by CaO, CaSiO(3), tFA and cement reached 64.62%, 76.15%, 79.97% and 32.21% at 350 degrees C for 4h, respectively. It was thought electrons in the vacancies originated from the unsaturated metallic ions and O(2-) on the crystal surfaces made the D(1) different between SiO(2), CaO and CaSiO(3). Comparing the D(1) by tFA and cement, the high dechlorination potential of tFA was due to the more free electrons from the crystal defects and the transition metals, and the more active points for the gas-solid phase reaction, which both had positive effects on dechlorination reaction. The effect of Cu addition (0.2-5.0%) on HCB dechlorination might result from the Ullmann coupling which was not notable in enhancing the dechlorination reaction. From the study, we can draw the conclusion that the dechlorination potential mainly depends on the support characteristic rather than the transition metal content. Based on this study and previous references, the dechlorination/polymerization induced by the electron transfer mode was thought to be the dominant pathway while the hydrogen transfer mode was minor. The electron was originated from the crystal defects or induced by transition metals, and the dissociation of a chloride ion happened forming a radical, and then the polymerization of radicals led to the formation of high-molecular-weight compounds which seemed to cause the material imbalance.     

Microbial dechlorination of polychlorinated biphenyls in anaerobic sewage sludge.

The potential of a chlorophenol (CP)-adapted consortium to dechlorinate polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in sewage sludge was investigated. Results show that dechlorination rates differed significantly depending on sludge source and PCB congener. Higher total solid concentrations in sewage sludge and higher concentrations of chlorine in PCB resulted in slower dechlorination rates. No significant difference was found for 2,3,4,5-CB dechlorination from pH 6.0 to pH 8.0; however, dechlorination did not occur at pH 9.0 during a 41-day incubation period. Results show that at concentrations of 1 to 10 mg/L, the higher the PCB concentration, the faster the dechlorination rate. In addition, dechlorination rates were in the following order: methanogenic conditions > sulfate-reducing conditions > denitrifying conditions. The addition of acetate, lactate, pyruvate, and ferric chloride decreased lag times and enhanced dechlorination; however, the addition of manganese dioxide had an inhibitory effect. Dechlorination rates were also enhanced by the addition of PCB congeners, including 2,3,4-CB, 2,3,4,5-CB and 2,3,4,5,6-CB in mixture. Overall results show that the CP-adapted consortium has the potential to enhance PCB dechlorination. The optimal dechlorination conditions presented in this paper may be used as a reference for feasibility studies of PCB removal from sludge.     

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin (PCDD) and dibenzofuran (PCDF) isomer patterns from municipal waste combustion: formation mechanism fingerprints

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin (PCDD) and dibenzofuran (PCDF) byproducts can be formed in combustion systems by a variety of mechanisms. While total PCDD/F emissions and, to a lesser extent, homologue distributions from incinerators have been found to vary widely depending on combustion conditions, PCDD/F isomer distributions do not. Formation mechanisms can be grouped into two general categories: condensation of precursors, such as chlorinated phenols, and formation from particulate carbon, termed de novo synthesis. In addition to these mechanisms, chlorination and dechlorination reactions may affect isomer patterns. In this work, isomer patterns from field and laboratory municipal waste combustion samples are compared with computed thermodynamic distributions and those from the following experimental investigations: both gas-phase and metal-catalyzed condensation of chlorinated phenols, chlorination of dibenzo-p-dioxin and dibenzofuran, and dechlorination of octachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin and octachlorodibenzofuran. PCDD/F isomer patterns produced by different formation mechanisms in controlled experiments are distinct and robust, largely unaffected by combustion conditions. PCDD isomer patterns from municipal waste combustion are most similar to those produced by CuCl(2)-catalyzed phenol condensation from 10 chlorinated phenols. PCDF isomer patterns are most similar to those produced by chlorination and dechlorination.     

Microbial PCB dechlorination in dredged sediments and the effect of moisture

Evidence of reductive dechlorination of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in sediments was investigated in Hudson River sediments dredged and encapsulated in 1978 at Moreau, NY. The effect of different moisture contents in dredged sediments on dechlorination and dechlorinating microorganisms was also determined using PCB-spiked sediments in which the moisture level was adjusted by simulating a dewatering process. The congener pattern of PCBs indicated that the dechlorination in the dredged sediments was far less advanced than that in the river sediments collected from the general area of the dredged site (Ft. Edward site). Dechlorination in encapsulated sediments at the Moreau site appeared to have stopped soon after dredging. When microorganisms eluted from the encapsulated sediments were inoculated in clean sediments spiked with Aroclor 1242, an extensive dechlorination was observed, indicating that the encapsulated sediments still harbored dechlorinating microorganisms. However, the same inoculum failed to further dechlorinate residual congeners in the dredged sediments. On the other hand, an inoculum obtained in 1990 from the dredged site in the Hudson River dechlorinated the residual congeners further. In simulated dredged sediments, the maximum level of dechlorination was lower at reduced moisture contents. The population size of dechlorinating microorganisms, as determined by the most probable number (MPN) technique, was also smaller at the lower moisture levels. There was a significant correlation between the maximum extent of dechlorination and the specific death rate of dechlorinating populations. These results indicate that the underlying mechanism of the moisture-dependent maximum dechlorination is the moisture-dependence of the death rate of dechlorinating microorganisms.     

Remediation of PCB contaminated soils using iron nano-particles

In this study, iron nano-particles were used to remediate PCB contaminated soil and an attempt was made to maximize PCB destruction in each treatment step. The results show that nano-particles do aid in the dechlorination process and high PCB destruction efficiencies can be achieved. The destruction efficiency during the preliminary treatment (mixing of soil and iron nano-particles in water) can be increased by increasing the water temperature. The maximum thermal destruction (pyrolysis/combustion of soil after preliminary treatment) of soil-bound PCBs occurs at 300 degrees C in air. A minimum total PCB destruction efficiency of 95% can be achieved by this process. The effect of changing treatment parameters such as type of mixing, time of mixing and mixing conditions and application of other catalysts like iron oxide and V(2)O(5)/TiO(2) was also investigated. It was found that at 300 degrees C in air, iron oxide and V(2)O(5)/TiO(2) are also good catalysts for remediating PCB contaminated soils.     

垃圾焚烧炉干燥段通风阻力特性实验研究

倾斜往复式炉排是我国城市生活垃圾焚烧炉中经常采用的炉排形式之一。垃圾在炉排干燥段的干燥效果直接影响到其着火和燃烧,因此炉排下侧送出的一次风在垃圾层中的流通性显得尤其重要。本研究通过搭建冷态试验台,以Steinmuller炉排为例,测量了炉排和不同厚度的垃圾层在不同一次风流量下的阻力,并研究了炉排和垃圾层的通风阻力特性,为今后更好地组织和控制高水份垃圾在炉内的干燥预热和着火燃烧提供了设计依据。     

Enhanced reductive dechlorination of polychlorinated biphenyl-contaminated soil by in-vessel anaerobic composting with zero-valent iron

Anaerobic dechlorination is an effective degradation pathway for higher chlorinated polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The enhanced reductive dechlorination of PCB-contaminated soil by anaerobic composting with zero-valent iron (ZVI) was studied, and preliminary reasons for the enhanced reductive dechlorination with ZVI were investigated. The results show that the addition of nanoscale ZVI can enhance dechlorination during in-vessel anaerobic composting. After 140 days, the average number of removed Cl per biphenyl with 10 mg g^?1 of added nanoscale ZVI was 0.63, enhancing the dechlorination by 34 % and improving the initial dechlorination speed. The ZVI enhances dechlorination by providing a suitable acid base environment, reducing volatile fatty acid inhibition and stimulating the microorganisms. The C/N ratios for treatments with the highest rate of ZVI addition were smaller than for the control, indicating that ZVI addition can promote compost maturity.     

A Comparison of Dioxin,Furan and Combustion Gas Data from Test Programs at Three MSW Incinerators

Dioxin, furan and combustion gas data from test programs conducted at the Pitts field, Prince Edward Island, and Peekskill municipal solid waste incinerators were compared to identify similar and discrepant results. Dioxin and furan concentrations sampled upstream of air pollution control devices are related to a variety of combustion gas variables monitored in the high temperature zones of the incinerators. The effects of temperature, excess oxygen, carbon monoxide, hydrochloric acid gas, flue gas moisture, particulate loading and refuse moisture and PVC content are discussed. Conclusions are made and future research needs are discussed.     

Prediction of Flue Gas Composition of an Incinerator Based on a Nonequilibrium-Reaction Approach

A nonequilibrium-reaetion model is developed to predict the flue gas composition of an incinerator for solid waste combustion and gasification. The model may also be effectively utilized to predict the composition of exit gas from the primary chamber of an incinerator where invariably substoichiometrie combustion conditions exist The model assumes that the drying and pyrolysis of waste occurs in sequence followed by combustion of devolatilized gas and residue separately. The model is applied to the combustion of pine wood, and the flue gas compositions are computed as a function of operating parameters such as temperature (1100 to 1500 K), initial moisture content (0 to 40 percent), and percentage excess air (up to 100 percent). The model is extended to include substoichiometric combustion (to simulate the gasification process without steam injection) to compare its predictions with the available experimental data. The general agreement of theory and experiment is good.
