Description
Summary:博士 === 國立中興大學 === 環境工程學系 === 86 === The object of this study is to investigate the control efficiency of different sorbents on the heavy metal emission during incineration processes. The adsorption characteristics of heavy metals at high temperatures, included the dynamic adsorption behaviors, adsorption saturation value, and thermal desorption efficiency, were also studied. With the results of thermodynamic equilibrium modeling and the identification of reaction products, the adsorption mechanisms of heavy metals on sorbent were addressed. TThe results showed that the solid sorbents containing silica, aluminum, or calcium could effectively decrease the emission of heavy metal during incineration processes. Different sorbent had respective adsorption efficiency on different metals. On the whole silica and limestone mixture had better adsorption efficiency on Cr and Cu, and bauxite was the best sorbent to capture Pb and Cd. The adsorption efficiency depends on the reaction potential of sorbent and metals, the volatility of metals, the feed wasteFor the sorbent of silica and limestone mixture, the major adsorption mechanism of less volatile metals Cr and Cu is chemical adsorption or high temperature sintering, and stable compounds were produced. The major adsorption mechanism of high- volatility metal Cd is physical adsorption processes, such as heterogeneous molecular adsorption, condensation, coagulation, and sedimentation. For medium-volatility metal Pb, the adsorption mechanism includes chemical reaction and physical processes. From the results
