Comparison of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons emission from thermal treatment of petroleum sludge cake in the presence of different additives
This study evaluates effectiveness of 4 additives [CaO, Ca(OH) 2 + NaHCO 3, H 2O 2, and FeSO 4 + H 2O 2] in thermal degradation of hazardous polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in petroleum sludge cake. Residual concentrations of 16 priority PAHs were determined using GC-MS. Total PAH conc. was...

| Summary: | This study evaluates effectiveness of 4 additives [CaO, Ca(OH) 2 + NaHCO 3, H 2O 2, and FeSO 4 + H 2O 2] in thermal degradation of hazardous polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in petroleum sludge cake. Residual concentrations of 16 priority PAHs were determined using GC-MS. Total PAH conc. was found as: gas, 3.11 × 10 -4 - 4.36 × 10 -4 ppmv; particulate, 7.92 × 10 -5 - 5.24 × 10 -4 mg/m 3; and residue, 1.37 × 10 -4 - 1.07 × 10 0 μg/g. Total toxicity equivalence of PAHs relative to that of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) was found as: gas, 3.11 × 10 -7 - 4.41 × 10 -7; particulate, 3.87 × 10 -7 - 3.85 × 10 -5; and residue, 6.17 × 10 -7 - 9.65 × 10 -3. Ca(OH) 2 + NaHCO 3 was most suitable due to least emission of high molecular weight PAHs, lower equivalent carcinogenicity of products, and lower concentrations of PAHs in gas, particulate and residue. |
