The effects of FeCl_3 on the distribution of the heavy metals Cd, Cu, Cr, and Zn in a simulated multimetal incineration system

摘要

Recognizing that waste-derived chlorine can enhance heavy metal emissions by forming volatile metallic chlorides during municipal solid waste (MSW) combustion, and that in Taiwan, FeCl_3-containing sewage sludge may either be landfilled or coincinerated with other MSW, this study thus investigated the effects of FeCl_3 on the speciation and partitioning of heavy metals in a multimetal incineration system by using a tubular furnace and FeCl_3-spiked simulated wastes.
