S-Cl-Na-K Chemistry During MSW Gasification: a Thermodynamic Study

This succinct thermodynamic study addresses the gasification chemistry (air/fuel ratio of 0.5) of four chemical elements involved in ash-related challenges, i.e. Na, K, S and Cl. At typical temperatures for the process studied, the following main trends have been observed: (1) the phase distribution...
