Performance of emissions-control systems on municipal-waste combustors
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6365352
This paper reports results of several EPA-supported field evaluations of data on gaseous pollutant emissions from modern municipal-waste combustors/incinerators and emissions control by flue-gas cleaning systems. The results are presented in terms of acid gas (HCl and SO/sub 2/), trace organic (dioxin/furan), trace heavy metal, and particulate matter reductions through the use of lime spray-dryer absorber/fabric filter and lime spray-dryer absorber/electrostatic precipitator technologies. Plans for additional field tests are discussed briefly.
