A Review on Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) Emissions from Energy Generation

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) emitted from fluidized bed combustion have been reviewed. Firstly, the PAH origin is undertaken. Secondly, the state of the art on their sampling and analytical procedures are commented. Finally, the influence of the fuel, fossil and nonfossil fuels, the combus...

Zusammenfassung:Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) emitted from fluidized bed combustion have been reviewed. Firstly, the PAH origin is undertaken. Secondly, the state of the art on their sampling and analytical procedures are commented. Finally, the influence of the fuel, fossil and nonfossil fuels, the combustor type and the combustion variables are analyzed concerning PAH formation and emission in solid/gaseous phase.
