Combustion experiments in a laboratory-scale fluidized-bed reactor were conducted to elucidate the effects of copper chloride as a catalyst on polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) formation in municipal waste incineration. We used model wastes with and without copper chloride (CuCl2 · 2H2O), both of which contained polyvinyl chloride as a chlorine source. Combustion temperature was set to 900 °C, and the amount of air supplied was twice the stoichiometric ratio. The experimental setup was carefully planned to suppress the influences of experimental conditions except the waste composition. Results of these experiments showed that copper chloride in the waste increased the amount of PCDDs formed and made the homologue profile to shift towards the highly chlorinated species. Copper chloride contributes to the PCDDs formation by promoting chlorination, whereby the reaction is important in that organic matter is chlorinated directly by copper compounds. Copper chloride did not exert a great influence on the isomer distribution patterns of PCDDs, while there appeared a significant difference in the case of PCDFs. This points out the difference of the major formation mechanisms between PCDDs and PCDFs. PCDDs are less formed by the catalytic reactions from carbon/polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons than PCDFs in our experimental conditions. 相似文献
The objective of this study is to obtain information on the calorimetric behaviors of aqueous solutions of hydroxylamine (HA), hydroxylamine chloride (HACl), and hydroxylamine nitrate(HAN) caused by different Fe(III) states (free Fe(III) from Fe(NH4)(SO4)2, Fe(CN)63−, and Fe(EDTA)−). The calorimetric data were obtained with a small-scaled reaction calorimeter, Super-CRC.
In the mixing with Fe(III), HA showed the highest reactivity among three substrates. Free Fe(III) and Fe(EDTA)− showed catalytic effects in the reactions. In the overall heat of reactions, Fe(EDTA)− exceeded free Fe(III), which precipitated as Fe(OH)3 and decreased the chances of interactions with HA. It was suggested that the generation of NH3 had taken place in the process of reducing HA along with Fe(II) oxidation. Fe(CN)63− was less reactive than free Fe(III) and Fe(EDTA)−.
The ability of masking Fe(III) was estimated for CyDTA. The HA including CyDTA had no exothermic peak; however, there was an endothermic peak of the heat flow at Fe(III) injection. CyDTA was found to have the ability to inhibit a violent exothermic reaction of HA. 相似文献
The thermally activated persulfate (PS) degradation of carbon tetrachloride (CT) in the presence of formic acid (FA) was investigated. The results indicated that CT degradation followed a zero order kinetic model, and CO2– · was responsible for the degradation of CT confirmed by radical scavenger tests. CT degradation rate increased with increasing PS or FA dosage, and the initial CT had no effect on CT degradation rate. However, the initial solution pH had effect on the degradation of CT, and the best CT degradation occurred at initial pH 6. Cl– had a negative effect on CT degradation, and high concentration of Cl– displayed much strong inhibition. Ten mmol·L–1HCO3– promoted CT degradation, while 100 mmol·L–1NO3– inhibited the degradation of CT, but SO42– promoted CT degradation in the presence of FA. The measured Cl–concentration released into solution along with CT degradation was 75.8% of the total theoretical dechlorination yield, but no chlorinated intermediates were detected. The split of C-Cl was proposed as the possible reaction pathways in CT degradation. In conclusion, this study strongly demonstrated that the thermally activated PS system in the presence of FA is a promising technique in in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) remediation for CT contaminated site. 相似文献
Trichloroethene (TCE) degradation by Fe(III)-activated calcium peroxide (CP) in the presence of citric acid (CA) in aqueous solution was investigated. The results demonstrated that the presence of CA enhanced TCE degradation significantly by increasing the concentration of soluble Fe(III) and promoting H2O2 generation. The generation of HO? and O2-? in both the CP/Fe(III) and CP/Fe(III)/CA systems was confirmed with chemical probes. The results of radical scavenging tests showed that TCE degradation was due predominantly to direct oxidation by HO?, while O2-? strengthened the generation of HO? by promoting Fe(III) transformation in the CP/Fe(III)/CA system. Acidic pH conditions were favorable for TCE degradation, and the TCE degradation rate decreased with increasing pH. The presence of Cl-, HCO3-, and humic acid (HA) inhibited TCE degradation to different extents for the CP/Fe(III)/CA system. Analysis of Cl- production suggested that TCE degradation in the CP/Fe(III)/CA system occurred through a dechlorination process. In summary, this study provided detailed information for the application of CA-enhanced Fe(III)-activated calcium peroxide for treating TCE contaminated groundwater. 相似文献
