PCDD/F Formation in Milled Fly Ash: Metal Chloride Catalysis

Abstract: Mechanochemical treatment reduces the particle size of fly ash and disperses catalytic metals, raising the potential reactivity of fly ash to form and destroy 'dioxins', i.e., polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD + PCDF or PCDD/F). To test this issue, model fly ash (MFA) samples were artificially composed by mixing silica, sodium chloride, and activated carbon, and doping this matrix with five selected catalytic metal chlorides administered as CuCl 2 •2H 2 O, CrCl 3 •6H 2 O, FeCl 3 (anhydr… Show more

“…The physical concentration of the sum of dl-PCB for gas and solid phase was 98.9 and 104 ng g -1 in original sample, respectively, and this value dropped with increasing milling time, down to 31.3 ng g -1 (+ 68%) in gas and to 36.7 ng g -1 (+ 65%) in solid phase after 1 h of milling. It demonstrates that 1 h of milling largely reduced MFA potential for de novo formation of toxic PCB, similar results were obtained with 2,3,7,8-PCDD/F and dl-PCB output during de novo tests of MFA in our previous work (Mubeen et al, 2017). However, further milling of MFA for 2 h slightly raised sum dl-PCB concentration to 35.7 ng g -1 (-14.1%) in gas phase and to 37.1 ng g -1 (-1.09%) in solid phase.…”

“…In our previous work on MFA milling, reformation in terms of total output of PCDD/F and dl-PCB, as well as erratic reformation of certain isomers (e.g., penta-CB #123) after 8 h milling without any additive have been observed in gas phase (Mubeen et al, 2017). Similarly, unexpected results were obtained by Cagnetta et al (2016): after 4 h milling of secondary copper smelting fly ash they got 76% destruction of pollutants, but in experiment of 6 h, with CaO:SiO 2 (4:1) as co-milling reagent at 275 rpm speed, PCDD and PCDF reformation was observed.…”

“…The share of PCDFs in the total PCDD/Fs was 79%, thus signifying the dominance of the de novo synthesis over the precursor formation pathways (Conesa et al, 2002). The formation mechanism was consistent with the model fly ash at a single temperature, gas flow rate and reaction time (Mubeen et al, 2017). OCDD accounts for 66% of the total mass of PCDDs, whereas 2,3,4,7,8-PeCDF, 1,2,3,4,6,7,8-HpCDF, and OCDF contributed most to the PCDFs.…”
