  2. 1. Waste incineration residues : Persistent organic pollutants in flue gas and fly ash from waste incineration

    Author : Eva Weidemann; Lisa Lundin; Stellan Marklund; Jean-Francois Boily; Henrik Bristav; Kees Olie; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MSW; PCDD; PCDF; PCN; PCB; POP; formation; degradation; case study; flue gas sampling thermal treatment; fly ash; surface characterization;

    Abstract : Modern societies produce large quantities of municipal solid waste (MSW), which is commonly disposed of by incineration. This has several advantages: it reduces the waste’s volume and sterilizes it while also enabling energy recovery. READ MORE

  4. 2. Systems Aspects of Increased Swedish Waste Incineration

    Author : Jenny Sahlin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; biological treatment; incineration tax; waste management; waste import; value of households’ time.; waste incineration; district heating; MSW; landfilling ban; recycling;

    Abstract : Abstract Recent bans on landfilling of combustible and organic waste in Sweden have resulted in an increase in alternative waste treatment, especially waste incineration with energy recovery. This thesis elucidates how the current increase in Swedish waste incineration affects and is affected by the two systems to which it belongs: the waste management and the energy systems. READ MORE

  5. 3. Characterisation of organic materials from incineration residues

    Author : Inger Johansson; Anna Ledin; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ash; biofuel; waste; residues; MSWI; incineration; leaching; organic carbon; organic acids; polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons; PAH; Chemistry; Kemi; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The organic material present in incineration residues has been examined. Water leachable organic material was characterised and classified into hydrophilic and hydrophobic acids, neutrals and bases. Changes of the organic material during weathering were followed. READ MORE

  6. 4. High temperature corrosion during waste incineration : characterisation, causes and prevention of chlorine-induced corrosion

    Author : Peter Viklund; Christofer Leygraf; Jan Froitzheim; Staffan Hertzman; Sweden Stockholm Swerea KIMAB AB; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; high temperature corrosion; waste incineration; superheater tubing; steel; alkali; chlorine; suphur; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract : Waste-fired boilers suffer severely from corrosion of critical components such as superheater tubes. In this work the high temperature corrosion of candidate superheater alloys have been investigated by detailed laboratory studies and controlled field exposures in full-scale boilers. READ MORE

  7. 5. Comparison of incineration and pyrolysis of NMC-lithium-ion batteries – determination of the effects on the chemical composition, and potential formation of hazardous by-products

    Author : Gabriele Lombardo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; vacuum; recycling; carbothermal; Keywords: Lithium-ion batteries; incineration; pyrolysis.;

    Abstract : Several industrial lithium battery recycling processes use thermal pre-treatment in an oxidative or inert atmosphere, or in a vacuum, to separate the battery components and remove organic material. However, a comparison of these pre-treatments on the microstructure and composition of waste material and production scrap LiBs has not been explored as well as there is a scarcity of information about the character of by-products generated during the processing.
