Supercritical water oxidation of dioxins and furans in waste incinerator fly ash, sewage sludge and industrial soil.

Three environmental samples containing dioxins and furans have been oxidized in the presence of hydrogen peroxide under supercritical water oxidation conditions. The samples consisted of a waste incinerator fly ash, sewage sludge and contaminated industrial soil. The reactor system was a batch, autoclave reactor operated at temperatures between 350 degrees C and 450degrees C, corresponding to pressures of approximately 20-33.

Application of low-temperature CP-Sil 88 column for the isomeric analysis of toxic 2,378-substituted PCDD/Fs in incinerator flyash and sewage sludge using a triple quadrupole GC-MS/MS.

The seventeen 2378-substituted polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzo-p-furans (PCDD/Fs) congeners have been separated and analyzed in sewage sludge and incinerator flyash samples using a CP-Sil 88 column (50 m × 0.25 mm I.D.
