Formation and destruction of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the flaring of the biogas collected from an automotive shredded residues landfill

The paper shows the results of the combustion in an enclosed flare of the biogas collected from an automotive shredded residues landfill. The results demonstrate that at 1,000°C and long combustion, several synthesis reactions lead to the formation of 4 to 6 rings of PAHs. This formation also involv...
