Abstract This research project focuses on pollutants from the combustion of mixtures of dried municipal sewage sludge (MSS) and coal. The objective is to determine the relationship between (1) fraction sludge in the sludge/coal mixture, and (2) combustion conditions on (a) NO(Sub X) concentrations in the exhaust, (b) the size segregated fine and ultra-fine particle composition in the exhaust, and (c) the partitioning of toxic metals between vapor and condenses phases, within the process. The proposed study will be conducted in concert with an existing ongoing research on toxic metal partitioning mechanisms for very well characterized pulverized coals alone. Both high NO(Sub X) and low NO(Sub X) combustion conditions will be investigated (unstaged and staged combustion). Tradeoffs between CO(Sub 2) control, NO(Sub X) control, and inorganic fine particle and toxic metal emissions will be determined.
