Interactions of heavy metal vapour with different carrier gases

  • 1. Paul Scherrer Inst. (PSI), Villigen (Switzerland)

Description

The idea of sustainable development with respect to waste incineration is to produce maximum of useful energy and solid residues which can be used as secondary raw materials. Ecologically the re-use of incinerator ashes is feasible if they are free of hazardous heavy metal compounds. The separation of heavy metals from waste requires knowledge of their behavior during the incineration process. This work investigates the gas phase of heavy metals (Cu, Cd, Zn and Cr) and their most relevant compounds (oxides and chlorides). (author) 1 fig., 2 refs
