d. An incinerator burning waste of the analysis
(1) Using equation 2-1,
shown below has a measured emission rate of 5
pounds/ MMBtu. What is the expected particulate
emission rate in grains per dry standard cubic foot at
12 percent CO2?
c. The emission rate of an incinerator is 10 lb/1000
Waste Analysis
lb of dry flue gas at 50 percent excess air. The Orsat
analysis is 8.0 percent O2, 82.5 percent N2, 9.5 percent
Carbon
35 percent by weight on dry basis
CO2 and 0 percent CO. Convert the emission rate to
Heating Value 6500 Btu/pound as fired
grains per dry standard cubic foot at 12 percent CO2.
Moisture
21 percent
(1) Using equation 2-3,
(1) In order to use equation 2-7, the percent car-
bon and the heating value must be on the
same basis.
(2) Using equation 2-4,
M=.16(9.5) + .04(8.0) + 28 = 29.84
(2) Using equation 2-7,
(3) Using equation 2-2,
(3) Using equation 2-9.
