In this work it was investigated the potential of Mucorales fungi isolated from the Caatinga of Pernambuco state for production of biosurfactants using renewable substrates. The strains (Mucor circinelloides UCP 0005, M. circinelloides UCP 0006 and Rhizopus arrhizus UCP 1609) were cultivated in alternative culture media consisting of instant noodle waste (INW), corn steep liquor (CSL) and post-frying soybean oil (PFSO), according to conditions established by a 23 full-factorial design (FFD). The production of biosurfactants was evaluated by determining surface tension and emulsification index (EI24) and statistical analysis was performed using Pareto diagram. The presence of the main sources of carbon and nitrogen in production medium was confirmed by FTIR spectroscopy. According to the results, the three fungi evaluated were able of produce biosurfactant in media containing renewable sources. However, the strain that showed the greatest reduction in surface tension (72 to 27 mN/m) was M. circinelloides UCP 0006 in condition 3 of the FFD (1% INW and 4% CSL, in absence of PFSO). The infrared analysis of the INW showed the presence of carbohydrates, fatty acids and proteins, proving that this is a suitable substrate for the cultivation of fungi. The biosurfactants produced by M. circinelloides UCP 0005 and M. circinelloides UCP 0006 were able to form water-in-oil emulsions and the biosurfactant from R. arrhizus UCP 1609 formed oil-in-water emulsions. The present study demonstrated that the three Mucorales fungi tested were able to produce biosurfactants from renewable sources, with emphasis on M. circinelloides UCP 0006.

Full textAbstract:
Le bottom ash (BA) rappresentano il residuo solido prodotto in maggior quantità dagli impianti di trattamento termico dei rifiuti. Molti paesi europei consentono il riutilizzo di questi materiali nell’industria dei materiali da costruzione, in quella siderurgica e nel settore di sottofondi stradali.
A causa del rischio legato al possibile rilascio di specie contaminanti, le scorie possono porre problemi una volta reimmesse nell’ambiente. Tali materiali, pertanto, prima di essere posti in discarica o proposti per un eventuale recupero, possono necessitare di un idoneo pretrattamento. I trattamenti più semplici e più comunemente utilizzati sono la separazione dimensionale, la rimozione dei metalli magnetici e non magnetici e la maturazione. Fra i trattamenti più avanzati ci sono, invece, i processi di stabilizzazione/solidificazione e quelli termici di vetrificazione, fusione e sinterizzazione. La scelta del trattamento dipende da condizioni sito-specifiche, dagli obiettivi di recupero e dai limiti normativi. In ogni caso, nella scelta del pre-trattamento è necessario porre particolare attenzione ai costi sia operativi che di investimento.
Il principale obiettivo della presente tesi di dottorato è stato quello di valutare l’effetto dei pre-trattamenti di separazione dimensionale e maturazione (o weathering) applicati a residui da processi di incenerimento di rifiuti. In particolare sono stati considerati i seguenti materiali:
- BA da impianti di incenerimento a griglia di RSU;
- BA da impianti di incenerimento a griglia di biomasse;
- Residui vetrificati da impianti di gassificazione ad alta temperatura di combustibile da rifiuti (RDF).
Il trattamento di separazione dimensionale è stato applicato a due campioni di BA provenienti da due diversi impianti di gassificazione di RDF ad alta temperatura. I residui sono stati caratterizzati con riferimento ai seguenti parametri: distribuzione granulometrica, peso specifico dei costituenti solidi, caratteristiche di compattazione, permeabilità, contenuto d’acqua e composizione chimica. Il comportamento a lisciviazione è stato valutato mediante il test di cessione EN 12457-2, il test per la determinazione della Capacità di Neutralizzazione Acida (ANC) secondo la metodica TS 14429 ed il test di Availability (NEN 7371). I risultati della indagini analitiche hanno evidenziato delle marcate differenze fra i due materiali considerati. In un caso le concentrazioni dei metalli pesanti negli eluati sono sempre risultate inferiori rispetto ai limiti imposti dalla normativa per il recupero o il conferimento in discarica per rifiuti inerti ed i contaminanti sono risultati uniformemente distribuiti fra le differenti classi granulometriche. Per l’altro materiale analizzato, le concentrazioni di Cu, Cr e Ni sono risultate superiori rispetto ai limiti fissati per il recupero. Tuttavia, per lo stesso campione, i risultati sperimentali hanno evidenziato una maggiore concentrazione di Cu e Ni nelle frazioni più fini. Di conseguenza il pre-trattamento di separazione dimensionale potrebbe dimostrarsi efficiente nel ridurre il contenuto di tali metalli nel residuo. Dall’altra parte, invece, il Cr è risultato presente in maniera pressoché uniforme in tutte le classi granulometriche, rendendo quindi la separazione dimensionale non idonea per la sua rimozione.
Per quanto riguarda il trattamento di weathering di BA da impianti di incenerimento di RSU e biomasse, i residui sono stati analizzati a successivi steps di trattamento e caratterizzati in termini di composizione chimica e mineralogica, stabilità volumetrica e tendenza a lisciviazione sia a breve che a lungo termine. I metalli risultati più critici sono stati Pb, Zn e Cu. Dopo 12 settimane di trattamento, la concentrazione di Zn è diminuita in maniera significativa per tutti i materiali considerati, mentre per il Pb si è osservata una lieve diminuzione solo per le BA da biomasse. Le concentrazioni di Pb negli eluati si sono rivelate indipendenti dal pH ed inferiori rispetto alle concentrazioni di saturazione fissate da idrossido di piombo (Pb(OH)2), anglesite (PbSO4) e currusite (PbCO3). Il comportamento a lisciviazione del Cu è risultato strettamente correlato a fenomeni di complessazione con il carbonio organico disciolto.
Il test ANC ha permesso di condurre una analisi maggiormente dettagliata del processo di weathering, con particolare riferimento alla correlazione fra trasformazioni di carattere mineralogico e comportamento a lisciviazione dei metalli pesanti.
Il trattamento, infine, si è dimostrato efficace nel garantire ai materiali una adeguata stabilità volumetrica.
Per quanto riguarda l’effetto del weathering applicato a residui da processi di gassificazione ad alta temperatura di RDF, la ricerca è stata condotta su un singolo campione, facendo riferimento alle diverse classi granulometriche. Il trattamento si è dimostrato efficace nel ridurre la tendenza a lisciviazione dei metalli anfoteri quali Zn e Pb, mentre non ha avuto effetti benefici sul comportamento dei metalli che tendono a formare ossianioni, fra cui il Cr. La tendenza a lisciviazione del Cu non è apparsa influenzata dal processo di maturazione. Alla fine del trattamento Cu e Cr sono risultati i metalli più critici per il recupero o il conferimento in discarica per inerti del materiale oggetto di studio.Bottom ash (BA) is the residue produced in greatest amount from incineration of municipal solid waste (MSW). Several countries allow the use of BA for civil engineering applications, as road construction, embankment, pavement, aggregate, filler for concrete, asphalt, or low-cost tiles. In these cases, leaching of heavy metals is a major issue and can limit the feasibility of these reuse options. In order to comply with limits set by law for leaching of heavy metals, several options are available for treating MSW combustion residues: solidification, stabilization, vitrification, classification by granulometric size particles and ageing or weathering. The choice of the treatment depends on site specific conditions, utilization or disposal objectives and law requirements. When an ash treatment method must be chosen, much attention must be payed to investment and operating costs. The main objective of this doctoral thesis was to investigate the effect of size separation and weathering as pre-treatments applied to different residues from waste incineration plants. The following materials were chosen for the experimental activities: - BA from MSW grate furnace combustion plants; - BA from wood waste grate furnace combustion plants; - vitrified residues from refuse derived fuel (RDF) high-temperature gasification plants. Size separation was applied to BA from two high temperature RDF gasification plants. These residues were analysed for the following parameters: grain size distribution, specific gravity, compaction behaviour, hydraulic conductivity, water content and chemical composition. Besides, leaching characteristics were also investigated by means of the EN 12457-2 batch leaching test, the TS 14429 Acid Neutralization Capacity (ANC) test and the Availability Test (NEN 7371). Results of the analytical investigations showed marked differences between the two investigated BA. In one case the levels of heavy metals were always below the Italian regulatory limits for either reuse or disposal as inert waste and a there was a uniform contaminant distribution above the different grain size classes. In the other case Cu, Cr and Ni were above the limits set for reuse. Moreover, the finest fractions appeared to be more contaminated in Cu and Ni and a size separation pre-treatment could be considered as a viable solution to reduce their content in BA. On the other hand, Cr was more or less evenly distributed in all the grain size classes, making the size separation pre-treatment not effective for this metal. As regards weathering treatment of BA from MSW and wood waste grate furnace combustion plants, the residues were analysed at different steps of treatment and characterized for their chemical and mineralogical composition, volume stability and both short term as well as long term leaching behaviour. Pb, Zn and Cu were the heavy metals to be released in greatest amount. After 12 weeks of treatment the concentration of leached Zn fell significantly in both cases, while for Pb it was possible to observe a concentration decrease only for biomass. Lead concentrations seemed to be independent from the BA pH and undersaturated with respect to lead hydroxide (Pb(OH)2), anglesite (PbSO4) and cerrusite (PbCO3). Leaching of Cu was well described by complexation processes with dissolved organic carbon. ANC test permitted to carry out analysis of the weathering process, with particular reference to mineralogical transformation and behaviour of heavy metals. The treatment resulted to be effective to comply with law limits concerning volume stability. As regards the effects of natural weathering on RDF high-temperature gasification residues, the study was conducted on a single BA sample and with reference to different grain size fractions. Significant results were obtained for the leaching of amphoteric elements such as Zn and Pb, while for oxyanion forming elements, such as Cr, it did not exert beneficial effects. Leaching of Cu appeared to be not affected by weathering. Cr and Cu resulted to be the most critical elements in view of recycling or disposal as inert waste.

Lignocellulosic biomass has high yields of cellulose which can be hydrolyzed to fermentable carbohydrates. Global generation of agro-industrial wastes grows simultaneously with the sector development resulting at the accumulation of lignocellulosic residues leading environmental pollution and loss of potential materials for the bioconversion to a wide range of high added value products, such as biofuels. Recently, the search of renewable sources of energy has grown, due to the depleting of fossil fuels, increasing the possibility at the conversion of the lignocellulosic biomass via hydrolytic enzymes. The aim of this work was evaluate cellulases production by lignocellulolytic fungi from the Amazonic biome aiming at the bioconversion of the agro-industrial residues. Submerged and solid-state fermentations were performed to select the microorganism with superior cellulase productive capacity. The influence of parameters such as pH, surfactant induction (Tween 80), aeration and agitation, besides the alkaline oxidative treatment of the sugarcane bagasse. Statistical design were carried out to estimate the influence of the moisture and the initial pH at cellulases production by solid-state fermentation. Trichoderma sp. and Aspergillus niger performed the best production of enzymes, where the highest yields of total cellulase were obtained by agitated submerged fermentation with sugarcane bagasse pretreated with H2O2 (1%) reaching 0.265 U.mL-1 (12.915 U.g-1) by Trichoderma sp. at the sugarcane bagasse, and 0.155 U.mL-1 (7.549 U.g-1) by Aspergillus niger. Through solid state fermentations with the pretreated sugarcane bagasse the influence of initial pH and the moisture were evaluated by statistical design. In the case of the Trichoderma sp. both parameters were significant at the cellulase production, as well as the synergistic interaction, within the confidence interval of 95%, yielding 0.167 U.mL-1 (2.695 U.g-1), at the pH 7.0 and 1:9 solid-liquid ratio. For Aspergillus niger only pH was significant and the cellulase content obtained was 0.098 U.mL-1 (1.695 U.g-1) at pH 7.0. Finally, a cellulase produced by Trichoderma sp. at solid state fermentation and a commercial enzyme were used at enzymatic hydrolysis tests. The parameters hydrolysis time, enzyme dilution, concentration of Tween 80 and solid-liquid ratio of sugarcane bagasse were evaluated. The significant variables were then optimized by a central composite rotational design. The strain of Trichoderma sp. from the Amazon biome showed potential at the cellulase production and the treated sugarcane bagasse was a fine substrate for the enzymatic production.
A biomassa lignocelulósica contêm altos teores de celulose e outros polissacarídeos em sua constituição química, podendo ser hidrolisados em açúcares fermentescíveis. A geração de resíduos agroindustriais anual tem crescido resultando no acúmulo de resíduos que contribuem para a poluição do meio ambiente e na perda de materiais que possuem potencial na bioconversão a produtos de alto valor agregado, como por exemplo, biocombustíveis. Recentemente, há a necessidade de fontes energéticas de origem renovável, devido à diminuição dos combustíveis fósseis, viabilizando a conversão das biomassas lignocelulósicas via enzimas hidrolíticas. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a produção de enzimas celulases por fungos lignocelulolíticos provenientes do bioma amazônico visando a bioconversão de resíduos agroindustriais. Diferentes fermentações foram realizadas, tanto em meio submerso quanto em estado sólido, através das quais selecionou-se os micro-organismos com melhor capacidade produtiva de celulases. Estudou-se a influência de parâmetros como pH, utilização de surfactante como indutor (Tween 80), aeração e agitação, além do tratamento alcalino oxidativo do bagaço de cana. Os micro-organismos que apresentaram melhor desempenho na produção das enzimas foram o Trichoderma sp. e o Aspergillus niger, sendo que os maiores níveis de celulase total foram obtidos por fermentação submersa nos ensaios agitados com bagaço de cana pré-tratado com H2O2 (1%), com 0,265 U.mL-1 (12,915 U.g-1) pelo Trichoderma sp., e 0,155 U.mL-1 (7,549 U.g-1) com Aspergillus niger. A partir de fermentações em estado sólido com o bagaço de cana pré-tratado avaliou-se a influência dos parâmetros pH inicial e umidade por planejamentos experimentais, verificando-se que para o Trichoderma sp. ambos os parâmetros, bem como a interação sinergética entre si, foram significativos dentro do intervalo de confiança de 95%, obtendo-se 0,167 U.mL-1 (2,695 U.g-1) no pH 7,0 e relação sólido-líquido 1:9. No caso do Aspergillus niger apenas o pH foi significativo e o teor de celulase obtido foi de 0,098 U.mL-1 (1,695 U.g-1) para um pH 7,0. Finalmente, a partir de uma celulase produzida por fermentação em estado sólido do Trichoderma sp. e uma enzima comercial foi realizada a avaliação da influência dos parâmetros tempo de hidrólise, diluição da enzima, concentração de Tween 80 e razão sólido-líquido do bagaço de cana sobre a hidrólise do mesmo. As variáveis significativas foram, posteriormente, otimizadas por um delineamento composto central rotacional. A cepa Trichoderma sp. proveniente do bioma amazônico apresentou potencial na produção de celulases e o o bagaço de cana submetido ao tratamento alcalino oxidativo apresentou-se como um bom substrato para a produção enzimática.

Mine waste materials from the Tri-State mining region in Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma pose environmental hazards. The area is contaminated with trace elements, such as Pb, Zn and Cd, which are transported to surrounding areas through water, wind erosion, and runoff. Phytostabilization or establishing healthy vegetative cover could be used to reduce or control these contaminated materials from further spreading with wind and water. However, further research is needed to monitor the long-term sustainability and assess if high applications of compost amendments could help to facilitate soil reclamation. The overall focus of this thesis was to monitor long-term effects of compost or lime additions at two different rates, with or without other soil amendments, on soil properties, plants, and soil biota. We used the earthworm avoidance test as a screening tool for testing effects of soil amendments on ecotoxicity. In the first field study, pelletized manure compost additions of 448 Mg ha⁻¹ significantly decreased the bioavailable Pb, Zn, and Cd while increasing plant nutrients, vegetative cover, and plant biomass as compared to the contaminated control and the low addition of compost (224 Mg ha⁻¹) over 2.5 years. Plant tissue metal concentrations with compost addition did not show any phytotoxicity in this study. Lime additions did not show any significant effect on any of the measurements. Results from the first study suggest that one time addition of large quantities of compost at 224 to 448 Mg ha⁻¹ can support establishing and maintaining healthy vegetative cover at least for a 2.5 year period. In the second field study, long-term monitoring of the effectiveness of the amendments was studied. Compost was applied at two different rates (45 or 269 Mg ha⁻¹) in 2006. Various chemical properties, microbial activities, and vegetative growth or plant biomass were measured approximately for 4.5 years to evaluate long-term changes in soil quality and sustainability of phytostabilization efforts, when combined or assisted with soil amendments to improve the quality of trace element-contaminated mine waste materials. Plants grown with compost additions of 269 Mg ha⁻¹ showed higher nutrients, biomass, and enzyme activities as compared to plants grown on the contaminated control and with the low addition of compost (45 Mg ha⁻¹) over 4.5 years. Decrease in plant biomass and enzyme activities seen in the high compost treatments by the end of the study period suggested that long-term sustainability of these efforts may require repeated addition of soil amendments every 4 to 5 years. Additionally, a laboratory study was conducted to assess the long-term effects of treatments used in the second field study on ecotoxicity using the avoidance behavior responses of the earthworm Eisenia fetida. There was no mortality of earthworms after a 48 h exposure period of any of these treated and untreated mine waste materials. Avoidance was clear for the contaminated control and the low compost treatment (45 Mg ha⁻¹). Moreover, the contaminated control did show habitat limitation (< 20% of earthworms was found in test soil). Current research studies provide evidence that, high rates of compost applications can be used to stabilize and reduce the bioavailability of trace elements in mine waste materials.

Full textAbstract:
Crushed animal waste, given the trade name Biomal, has successfully been combusted in Fluidized Bed Boilers with low emission data. About 500 tons of Biomal were co-combusted in full scale tests in commercial boilers with wood chips, peat and sorted municipal waste. The mixing ratios varied between 30% and 65% depending on the fuel mix. In order to minimize the spread of BSE-infection among cattle a new EU legislation became effective in October 2000. This regulation stipulates that animal waste such as carcasses and SRM (Specific Risk Material) from slaughterhouses has to be destroyed by combustion. The company Konvex AB, which in Sweden is responsible for taking care of this type of animal waste, has together with S.E.P. (Scandinavian Energy Project AB) developed a cost effective concept for using animal waste as a fuel without first processing it into fat and meat meal. The Biomal fuel has been continuously co-combusted for 7 days in a 12 MWth bubbling fluidized bed boiler and for 3 days in a 40 MWth circulating fluidized bed boiler with very good operating performance. During the test periods ordinary emission data such as CO, SO2, NOx, TOC etc. as well as specific compounds such as Dioxins and heavy metals were measured recorded. All data including operating parameters in the EU regulation for co-combustion of waste, EU 2000/76/EG, were met. The CO-levels were below 50 mg/m3n and the TOC-levels were most of the time undetectable and well below 10 mg/m3n. • Despite a much higher nitrogen content in the Biomal fuel compared to wood chips the NOx-emissions were unaffected or in some chases reduced by up to 50% while firing Biomal. • No increased Dioxin emission where measured.

This article presents some results from assessment work conducted as part of a joint Norwegian-Russian project to decommission radioisotope thermoelectric generators (RTG) in Northwest Russia. Potential worst case accident scenarios, based on the decommissioning procedures for RTGs, were assessed to study possible radiation effects to the environment. Close contact with exposed RTG sources will result in detrimental health effects. However, doses to marine biota from ingestion of radioactivity under the worst-case marine scenario studied were lower than threshold limits given in IAEA literature.

The impact analysis of low doses of ionizing radiation on the breathers in natural populations is an important part of radiobiological studies of non-human biota. The main aim of our studies was to investigate some cytogenetic, morphological and reproductive rates of the common reed (Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex. Steud.) from different water bodies within the Chernobyl accident exclusion zone. The absorbed dose rate for littoral emergent plants in sampling water bodies was varied from 1.3E−02 to 1.6E−01 Gy/h. The rate and main types of chromosome aberrations in roots meristems, morphological damages in seed germs, as well as rates of germinating ability and power were analyzed. There were registered rather low rate of germinating ability (14–48%) and germinating power (<1) of seeds from all sampling water bodies with high levels of radioactive contamination in comparison to control ones. Against the general suppressed background the effect of relative stimulation of more affected seeds was observed. With increase of absorbed dose in range of 1.3E−02–1.6E−01 Gy/h the number of germinated seeds was increased. At the same time the number of morphological damages of seeds was increased as well. There was determined the positive correlation between absorbed dose rate and chromosome aberration rate in roots of the common reed from sampling water bodies. The highest rate of chromosome aberrations (up to 17%) were registered in plants with high level of morphological deviations in seeds germs. The data obtained from the complex analysis of natural populations of the common reed from the radioactive contaminated water bodies testify about rather high level of genetic efficiency of low doses of long-term exposure.

Full textAbstract:
Enhanced reductive dechlorination (ERD) has rapidly become a remedy of choice for use on chlorinated solvent contamination when site conditions allow. With this approach, solutions of an organic substrate are injected into the affected aquifer to stimulate biological growth and the resultant production of reducing conditions in the target zone. Under the reducing conditions, hydrogen is produced and ultimately replaces chlorine atoms on the contaminant molecule causing sequential dechlorination. Under suitable conditions the process continues until the parent hydrocarbon precursor is produced, such as the complete dechlorination of trichloroethylene (TCE) to ethene. The process is optimized by use of a substrate that maximizes hydrogen production per unit cost. When natural biota are not present to promote the desired degradation, inoculates can be added with the substrate. The in-situ method both reduces cost and accelerates cleanup. Successful applications have been extended from the most common chlorinated compounds perchloroethylene (PCE) and TCE and related products of degradation, to perchlorate, and even explosives such as RDX and trinitrotoluene on which nitrates are attacked in lieu of chloride. In recent work, the process has been further improved through use of beverage industry wastewaters that are available at little or no cost. With material cost removed from the equation, applications can maximize the substrate loading without significantly increasing total cost. The extra substrate loading both accelerates reaction rates and extends the period of time over which reducing conditions are maintained. In some cases, the presence of other organic matter in addition to simple sugars provides for longer performance times of individual injections, thereby working in a fashion similar to emulsified vegetable oil. The paper discusses results of applications at three different sites contaminated with chlorinated ethylenes. The applications have included wastewaters of both natural fruit juices and corn syrup solutions from carbonated beverages. Cost implications include both the reduced cost of substrate and the cost avoidance of needing to pay for treatment of the wastewater.

Ontario Power Generation (OPG) is proposing to build a Deep Geologic Respository (DGR) for Low and Intermediate Level Waste (L&ILW) near the existing Western Waste Management Facility at the Bruce site in the Municipality of Kincardine, Ontario. The Nuclear Waste Management Organization (NWMO), on behalf of OPG, is currently preparing an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and Preliminary Safety Report (PSR) for the proposed repository. This involves investigation of the site’s geological and surface environmental characteristics, conceptual design of the DGR, and technical studies to demonstrate the operational and long-term safety of the proposed facility. A preliminary postclosure safety assessment (SA) was undertaken in 2008 and 2009. Consistent with the guidelines for the preparation of the EIS for the DGR and the regulatory guide on assessing the long-term safety of radioactive waste management, the SA evaluated the DGR’s performance and its potential impact on human health and the environment through pathway analysis of contaminant releases, contaminant transport, receptor exposure and potential effects. Consideration was given to the expected long-term evolution of the repository and site following closure (the Normal Evolution Scenario) and four disruptive (“what if”) scenarios (Human Intrusion, Severe Shaft Seal Failure, Open Borehole, and Extreme Earthquake), which considered events with uncertain or low probability that could disrupt the repository system. Conceptual and mathematical models were developed and then implemented in a range of software tools including AMBER, to provide estimates of impacts such as dose, FRAC3DVS, for detailed 2D and 3D groundwater flow and transport calculations, and T2GGM, a code that couples the Gas Generation Model (GGM) and TOUGH2 and models the generation of gas in the repository and its subsequent 2D transport through the geosphere. Calculations have been undertaken to assess the impact of radionuclides on human and non-human biota and the impact of non-radioactive species on humans and the environment. The results indicate that the DGR system provides a high level of postclosure safety.

Full textAbstract:
When moving towards CO2 neutral bio fuels and waste derived fuels, new challenges are set for combustion facilities and technical boiler solutions. A common feature for both bio- and waste fuels is a big variety in composition, often high levels of alkali metals, chlorine and moisture which make these fuels difficult to burn in facilities designed for conventional fuels such as coal, peat and wood. The problems that might occur due to high alkali and chlorine levels in the fuels, are slagging, fouling, corrosion and bed sintering. The Fortum BioMAC BFB boilers are designed especially for difficult, unconventional fuels such as rice husk, olive waste, straw, construction residue, de-inking sludge, etc. The design of each individual boiler is made based on advanced theoretical prediction tools and extensive fuel testing in laboratory and in pilot scale combustion facilities. The theoretical tools consist of a multi-phase multi-component chemical equilibrium model that estimates the slagging/fouling, sintering and corrosion propensity of the fuels/fuel mixtures and of a computational fluid dynamics part. CFD calculations are used to optimize the flow pattern and the temperature of the boiler in order to avoid hot temperatures in the vicinity of refractory linings and cooled surfaces. The chemical equilibrium calculations predict the melting behavior of the fuel ash, which is used as an indicator for the placement of the superheaters. The bottom ash removal is controlled for efficient removal of coarse material, screening and recirculation. The ash related problems of important bio and waste fuels, the analytical procedure of the evaluation of the usability of the fuels and the adaptation of the boiler design are discussed in the paper.

Full textAbstract:
One of the major issues during the site selection and design of a NPP is the heat sink issue, i.e. installation and availability of reliable and efficient recipient of heat (air, water or both of them) in relation in particular with: • waste the heat removed from the condenser of the turbines during normal operational state, • waste the heat removed from all of the safety-related and non-safety-related equipment and systems during normal operational state, • waste the residual heat removed from nuclear reactor fuel (situated in reactor vessel or tubes), the decay heat removed from nuclear spent fuel (situated in spent fuel pool), and the heat removed from all of the safety-related equipment and systems during abnormal operational state and accident conditions. There are several “newcomer” countries that are situated in warm climate zones. In such countries, the cooling water design could be a challenge with regards to extreme water and air temperatures, air humidity, absence of an important reliable cold water source inside the country, etc. In addition, some specific items related to natural, industrial and human environment should be considered during the site evaluation, as for example, risk of intensive biota development, oil spills, siltation, low water level events, etc. This requires particular consideration of the heat sink issue for the site regulatory review during the licensing process. The article discusses the methodology for site regulatory review with regards to the heat sink issue and provides some practical advises on safety assessment and acceptance criteria to be considered.
