A laboratory investigation on combined in-furnace sorbent injection and hot flue-gas filtration to simultaneously capture SO2, NOx, HCl, and particulate emissions
Article Abstract:
A new integrated procedure for getting rid of pollutants generated during combustion of fuels in furnaces is reviewed in this study. The study is broken down into an introduction and literature review, a discussion of the experiment material and procedure, and a discussion of the results.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and particulate emissions from two-stage combustion of polystyrene: the effect of the primary furnace temperature
Article Abstract:
Styrofoam cups are combusted in a furnace and afterburner and the resulting emissions of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are measured. The yield of PAH components is graphed for each stage of combustion, at varying furnace temperatures.

Comparative study on the combustion and emissions of waste tire crumb and pulverized coal
Article Abstract:
The combustion and emissions of waste tires and coal in pulverized form was investigated by burning the two fuels at 1150 degrees Centigrade. Tire particles burned two to three times faster than pulverized coal. Coal particles revealed distinct volatile and char combustion phases, and both fuels produced comparable levels of sulfur dioxide emissions. Pulverized coal produced nitric oxide emissions that were three to four times greater than those of pulverized rubber. Both produced low levels of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon emissions at fuel-rich conditions.
