Experimental study on the effect of SO2 on PCDD/F emissions: determination of the importance of gas-phase versus solid-phase reactions in PCDD/F formation

Cofiring coal in municipal solid waste incinerators (MSWls) has previously been reported to reduce polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDDs/Fs) emissions due to increasing the flue gas SO2 concentration. The present study was focused on understanding the primary mechanism responsib...
