Influence of Different Catalytic Metals on the Formation of PCDD/Fs during Co-combustion of Sewage Sludge and Coal by Xiaoqing Lin, Tieying Mao, Yunfeng Ma, Xiangbo Zou, Lijun Liu, Wenhua Yin, Mumin Rao, Ji Ye, Chuangting Chen, Hong Yu, Xiaodong Li, Jianhua Yan

“…Abstract Co-combustion of sewage sludge (SS) and coal was developed rapidly in China, however, less attention was paid to the formation characteristics of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) and the influence factors, such as the catalytic metals (CuCl2, FeCl3, ZnCl2, CuO, Fe2O3, and ZnO), sources of carbon and chlorine. During the co-combustion of SS (2.5 wt.%) and coal (97.5 wt.%), the formation content of PCDD/Fs was 0.51 ng g–1 and 0.01 ng I-TEQ g–1. …”

Thermal and Aerodynamic Researches of Staggered Bundles for Choice of an Effective Spacing of Round-Finned Tubes by V. B. Kuntysh, A. B. Sukhotskii, G. S. Marshalova, V. V. Dudarev, V. N. Farafontov

“…The numerical average value of TCR was Rк = 2,13 × 10–4 m2×K/W, which is typical for reliable mechanical connection of the finned aluminum shell with the supporting steel tube made of carbon steel. The results of variant thermal and aerodynamic calculations with the use of the obtained data established the technical and economic feasibility of placing tubes at the vertices of an isosceles triangle with spacing S1 = 68–69 mm and S2 = 55 mm with failure to use the location of the tubes along an equilateral triangle with S1 = S2' = 64 mm (where S2' – is diagonal spacing). …”
