THERE ARE A NUMBER OF VARIATIONS in the methods described in the literature for the procedure by incineration for the determination of protein bound iodine (PBI) (1, 2). Most of these are simple variations of the basic ones described earlier in the literature. After incineration there remains an insoluble portion when the residue is treated with 2N HC1, 7N 112S04, and H20. It appears to be unbu...

in the present paper, the idea of braking energy regeneration and reusing that energy during acceleration for a refuse truck is comprehended. according to their driving cycle, the refuse trucks have a good potential for braking energy regeneration. on the other hand, hydraulic hybrid is a powertrain with high power density which is appropriate for energy regeneration. in the primary stage of th...

a trend of significant increase in municipal solid waste generation has been recorded worldwide. this has been found due to over population growth rate, industrialization, urbanization and economic growth. consumerism speed has been found very high covering around more then 50% of total population since last decade due to higher economic growth, which has ultimately resulted in increased solid ...

Although most of the air pollutants can be removed with air pollution control facilities, the greenhouse gas (carbon dioxide) is unavoidably released into the atmosphere from the flue gas during waste incineration. The amounts of CO2 emitted from municipal solid waste incinerators are usually estimated following the guidelines set down by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Ho...

The paper is a review of improved ca�culating and design techniques, performance rating of incinerators, and a description of the new open"pit incinerator. Of particular interest is a curve of nitrogen oxide formation with varying exe ess air and temperature developed from thermodynamic equilibrium data that has been verified by fie ld tes Is.

escalating development of tourism and petroleum industries in small islands such as lavan-iranrequires sound solid waste management. in the present investigation, three scenarios which consist of thecombination of landfill, recycling, incineration and composting and their environmental impacts have beenevaluated for 7514 kg/day of waste generation in lavan island. for this purpose, life cycle a...
