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
