Comparison of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol conversion to PCDD/PCDF on a MSWI- fly ash and a model fly ash

We performed experiments on two different matrices with 2,4,6- trichlorophenol as precursor to Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD)/F. A municipal solid waste incinerators (MSWI) and a model fly ash were spiked in two different ways. The experiments demonstrated a three times higher formation potential of the trichlorophenol to PCDD on MSWI fly ash compared with the model fly ash used. For both fly ashes the PCDD yield was higher when gaseous trichlorophenol was fed continuously compared to mixing the fly ashes prior to the experiments with the total amount of the precursor. Despite dilution of the fly ashes tenfold with an inactive matrix the conversion of the chlorophenol was very high. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Synthesis of the 38 Tetrachlorodibenzofuran Isomers and Identification by Capillary Column Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry

The 38 positional isomers of tetrachlorodibenzofuran have been synthesized by pyrolysis of specific polychlorinated biphenyl congeners, ultraviolet photolysis of pentachlorodibenzofurans, and chlorination of trichlorodibenzofurans by aromatic substitution.The specificity of these reactions in combinatiuon with capillary column gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection has allowed each of these isomers to be identified based on their relative elution order.
