Solvation effect on organic compound interactions in soil organic matter

Article Abstract:

Sorption of pyridine in Pahokee peat is described as either solvent-competitive or solvent-assisted by measuring its reactions to acetonitrile, acedone, n-hexadecane, and water mixtures. Graphs of pyridine activity in relation to soil organic matter mixtures show an interactive relationship.

Dioxin and furan formation in FBC boilers

Article Abstract:

The following paper undertakes the examination of using fluidized bed combustion (FBC) for municipal and solid waste incineration and other applications in which dioxin and furan (PCDD/F) formation are an issue, and how the process is successful despite the fact that FBC is a low temperature system. The research shows that benefits depend on the CI/S ratio, and that at larger levels of sulfur addition, dioxins polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) and furans production may increase.
