In this paper the polychlorinated-dibenzo dioxins and furans (PCDD/Fs) release is analyzed during an hydrothermal carbonization process of the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW). Two models to estimate the quantity of PCDD/Fs that can be released during this kind of process are presented in this paper. The first model follows a mass balance approach; the second one develops a phenomenon description based on the desorption mechanism. Finally, the effects of temperature and pressure on the whole yield of dioxins and furans are discussed.

Abstract
In this paper the polychlorinated-dibenzo dioxins and furans (PCDD/Fs) release is analyzed during an hydrothermal carbonization process of the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW). Two models to estimate the quantity of PCDD/Fs that can be released during this kind of process are presented in this paper. The first model follows a mass balance approach; the second one develops a phenomenon description based on the desorption mechanism. Finally, the effects of temperature and pressure on the whole yield of dioxins and furans are discussed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
