[Effects of adsorbents on partitioning of Cd and Pb in MSW incineration].
An incineration experiment using simulated municipal solid waste (MSW) in the tubular furnace was performed to study the effects of SiO2, Al2o3 and CaO on the partitioning of Cd and Pb under different operating conditions which included adsorbents percentage, furnace temperature and residence time. The results indicated that the increasing of SiO2, AL2O3, CaO concentration were favorable for Cd to partition in the bottom ash. And for Pb, SiO2 and Al2O3 had the same effects. However, the condition with CaO showed an opposite tendency of increasing Pb distribution in fly ash. While all of these adsorbents increasing, the effects were also enhanced. When the temperature of the tubular furnace was 850 degrees C, the adsorption efficiencies of these adsorbents for Cd were in the sequence of CaO > Al, O3 > SiO2, and for Pb, Al2O3 > SiO2 > CaO. In addition,with increasing of tubular furnace temperature and residence time, there would be more Cd and Pb compounds moving to the fly ash.
