Original Abstract

Generation of wide range of harmful compounds as a result of waste incineration represents a problem which has to be solved in agreement with environmental regulations. Flue gas contains the following groups of harmful compounds: persistent organic pollutants (POP), especially enormously toxic polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins a polychlorinated dibenzo-furans (PCDD/F). Based on experience from operation of the incinerator with capacity of 96,000 t/y it has been proved that even after more than three year's operation the activity of filtration material was not decreased and efficiency of dioxins removal from flue gas ranges from 97 to 99 %. These facts come from complex measurements where concentration of PCDD/F toxic congeners in both flue gas and separated flying ash was measured. We arrived at confirming expected assumptions that various congeners are not decomposed uniformly in the dioxin filter and the stage of their decomposition depends on their representation in the gas phase. It is strongly influenced by their molecular weight.
