“…Operational costs of NOx and PCDD/F reduction for catalytic filtration in MSW incineration plant (15 t/h of maximum processing capacity and 65,000 N m 3 /h of flue gas production) are significantly lower than operation costs for technology based on fixed-bed catalytic reactor (Pařízek et al, 2008;Pavlas and Touš, 2009). …”

“…The process is implemented in more than 100 plants worldwide, including WtE plants, crematoria and metal processing plants. Its typical operation temperature range is 180-260°C, the destruction efficiency reaches 97-99% and the dioxin emission concentration can be kept well below 0.1 ng(TE)/m 3 (Pařízek et al, 2008).…”

“…They saw that the degradation efficiency can be extended to 99-97% while dioxin emission can be lowered below 0.1 ng. (TEQ )/m 3 [62]. REMEDIA technology benefits from catalytic substrates that are overlaid on a two-layer polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membraned material to filter and eliminate PCDD/F.…”

PCDD/Fs are a 75-member family of toxic chemicals that include congeners (members) that have serious health effects including congeners that are classified group 1 carcinogens, endocrine disruptors and weakening or damage to the immune system. Municipal solid waste (MSW) incinerations had historically been implicated as the major source of PCDD/Fs distributed by air. As a result of awareness and legislation most European MSW incinerators were either shut down or equipped with modern air pollution control systems necessary to achieve MSW incineration with PCDD/F emissions within regulatory limits set by national and international laws (typically <0.1 ng TEQ/Nm3). There is a common belief that gasification of waste and/or biomass, unlike incineration, inherently and always achieve emission below regulatory and detectable limits. However, a review of the literature suggests that the belief that the substitution of incineration with gasification would always, or necessarily, reduce PCDD/Fs emissions to acceptable levels is overly simplistic. This chapter discusses the mechanisms of PCDD/Fs formation, the operational measures and parameter ranges that can be controlled during gasification to minimize PCDD/Fs formation, and methods for post-formation PCDD/F removal are reviewed. The purpose of this chapter is to assist researchers and practitioners in formulating waste management policies and strategies, and in conducting relevant research and environmental impact studies.
