Abstract

AbstractToxic Trace Pollutant emission factors have been developed using a database of over 500 references, including 50 emission test reports for municipal solid waste (MSW) incineration. Procedures have been developed and computerized to calculate emission factors from the best available data for dioxin/furan toxic equivalents, carcinogenic PAHs, and other trace organics and metals. Statistical analyses have been performed on standardized test results to assess the relationship of emissions and various incineration and air pollution control equipment design and operating parameters. Although the data is much more limited for hazardous waste and medical waste incineration, the available data have been summarized.
