| Abstract | BIOSIS COPYRIGHT: BIOL ABS. Results are presented on the correlation of the emissions of carbon monoxide (CO) and polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) from the combustion of pulverized bituminous coal and tire-derived fuel. The particle size cuts of coal and tire crumb were 63-75 and 180-212 mum, respectively. Combustion experiments were conducted in laboratory-scale facilities under controlled conditions. The relation between CO and PAH species in the combustion effluent was investigated at drop-tube furnace gas temper range) at a fixed gas temperature. The CO and especially the PAH yields from tire-derived fuel were much higher than those from coal, but the relative amounts of individual PAH components were remarkably similar in the combustion effluent of the two fuels. At fixed bulk equivalence ratios, however, as the furnace gas temperature increased the PAH yields from both fuels decreased drastically, while the CO yields increased. At the highest temperature tested herein (1300 ?C), the e |
