Mechanisms for formation, chlorination, dechlorination and destruction of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs)
- M. Altarawneh, B. Dlugogorski, E. Kennedy, J. Mackie
- Chemistry
- 1 June 2009
Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) constitute a group of persistent organic pollutants that form almost inexorably in all thermal and combustion operations.… Expand
Formation of dioxins and furans during combustion of treated wood
- N. Tame, B. Dlugogorski, E. Kennedy
- Chemistry
- 1 August 2007
Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDD/F, dioxin) are produced in combustion of wood treated with copper-based preservatives. This review summarises and analyses… Expand
Ab initio procedure for aqueous-phase pKa calculation: the acidity of nitrous acid.

- 12 September 2006
We present an ab initio procedure for accurately calculating aqueous-phase pKa values and apply it to study the acidity of nitrous acid (HNO2, or HONO). The aqueous-phase pK(a) of nitrous acid was… Expand
Prediction of pressure losses in pipe flow of aqueous foams
- B. Gardiner, B. Dlugogorski, G. Jameson
- 5 February 1999
This paper presents a model for predicting pressure losses in foams of various expansions and pressures, in pipes of any given diameter, once the foam behavior has been characterized at a single… Expand
Effects of wind flow on self-heating characteristics of coal stockpiles
- B. Moghtaderi, B. Dlugogorski, E. Kennedy
- Engineering
- 1 November 2000
The oxidation process occurring in stockpiles of reactive materials, such as coal, induces a natural convection flow field within the pile. Due to porosity of the stockpile, this flow field is… Expand
Analysis of the mechanism of the low-temperature oxidation of coal
- H. Wang, B. Dlugogorski, E. Kennedy
- Chemistry
- 1 July 2003
The mechanism of the oxidation of coal at low temperatures, i.e., below 100°C, was examined using measurements of the gases emitted from a bed of coal in an isothermal flow reactor. Employing an… Expand
Coal Oxidation at Low Temperatures: Oxygen Consumption, Oxidation Products, Reaction Mechanism and Kinetic Modeling

Kinetic modeling of low-temperature oxidation of coal
- H. Wang, B. Dlugogorski, E. Kennedy
- Chemistry
- 1 December 2002
A kinetic model has been developed for determining the rate of oxygen consumption and production of carbon oxides during the oxidation of coal at low temperatures (i.e. <100°C), based on current… Expand
Low-temperature oxidation of coal at elevated pressures
- H. Wang, B. Dlugogorski, E. Kennedy
- Chemistry
- 1 November 1998
A mathematical model is presented to describe steady-state mass transfer and oxidation processes in coal at low temperatures in a fixed-bed flow reactor. The model incorporates the effects of partial… Expand
Quantum chemical investigation of formation of polychlorodibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans from oxidation and pyrolysis of 2-chlorophenol.
