D. Brocca et al., A NEW QUANTIFYING TOC AND COD METHODOLOGY FOR THE DETERMINATION OF ORGANIC-COMPOUNDS AND PARTICULATE CARBON DIRECTLY ON FLY-ASH OF MSWI, Chemosphere, 35(10), 1997, pp. 2203-2213
This paper presents a methodology for preparing a ''reagent'' sample t
o study the formation reaction of PCDD/F from the carbon embedded on f
ly ash without any modification in the structure of the raw fly ash. T
he methodology combines Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE) of the or
ganic compounds with Total Organic Carbon (TOC) and Chemical Oxygen De
mand (COD) as control techniques. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
