Iron-catalyzed cocurrent flow destruction and dechlorination of chlorobenzene during gasification

Article Abstract:

Iron-treated char aids in the catalysis of chlorobenzene destruction in the ChemChar thermal waste gasification process. It is believed that the utilization of iron-treated char brought the increase of destruction removal efficiency (DRE) of chlorobenzene from gasification to about 99.75%. The rating sufficiently satisfies the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) requirement of 99.99% (4-inches) destruction. Chlorobenzene dechlorination depends on the reduction of chlorobenzene by reaction with nascent hydrogen.

Reverse-burn gasification for treatment of hazardous wastes: contaminated soil, mixed wastes, and spent activated carbon regeneration

Article Abstract:

The utilization of reverse-burn gasification as a technique for treating organic wastes containing radioactive metals is discussed. A gasification reactor was applied to treat polychlorinated biphenyl-contaminated soils, destroy mixed wastes and regenerate activated carbon. The distinct advantages of gasification over incineration were demonstrated as its utility for waste treatment applications was established.

Thermodynamic considerations in the application of reverse mode gasification to the destruction of hazardous substances

Article Abstract:

University researchers investigated the application of reverse mode gasification of mixtures containing water, selected hydrocarbons and motor oils, in the degradation of toxic substances using a granular char matrix.
