Leaching and microstructural analysis of cement-based solidifed wastes
Article Abstract:
In this study, the leaching behaviors and binding chemistry of solidified/stabilized industrial waste were examined. The article is broken down into an introduction, a discussion of materials and methods used in the experiment, and a discussion of the results. Various tables, graphs and photographs accompany the article.

Influence of level and form of chlorine on the formation of chlorinated dioxins, dibenzofurans, and benzenes during combustion of an artificial fuel in a laboratory reactor
Article Abstract:
No relationship exists between the quantities of formed dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs)/dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and chlorobenzenes (PCBzs) in the combustion process and chlorine concentration in the fuel, when the chlorine level is less than 1%. The formation rate increases, however, when the level of chlorine in the fuel exceeds 1%. These results were derived from a study of the formation of PCDDs, PCDFs and PCBzs in the combustion process where chlorine level and source were varied in an artificial waste.
