Because of the proximity of population nuclei and the duration of the episode (>20days), the authors conducted a preliminary human health risk assessment study just after the tire fire. Samples of air and soil were collected in 3 areas surrounding the landfill (El Quinon, at only 500m, and Sesena Nuevo and Sesena Viejo, both at 4km), as well as in background sites. In addition, samples of crops (barley, wheat, cabbage and lettuce) were also obtained from local farmers. The concentrations of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and a number of trace elements (As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sb, Sn, Tl, and V) were analyzed in all the samples. The concentrations of all the target pollutants, excepting PAHs, were relatively similar at the different sampling zones, irrespective of the distance to the landfill. In turn, a significant increase of PAHs was noted near the tire landfill, with air levels up to 6-times higher than those found at 4km (134 vs. 19.5-22.7ng/m3). Similarly, PAH concentrations in lettuce were relatively higher than those typically found in monitoring programs of food safety. Because of the increase of airborne PAHs, cancer risks due to exposure to environmental pollutants for the population living at El Quinon, near the landfill, were between 3- and 5-times higher than those estimated for the inhabitants of Sesena. After this preliminary study, further investigations, focused only on PAHs, but more extensive in terms of number of samples, should be conducted to assure that PAHs have been progressively degraded through time.]]> Wed, 27 Dec 2017 10:29:24 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/1491375 Pyrolysis of automotive shredder residue in a bench scale rotary kiln https://trid.trb.org/View/1493224 30mm. Both the streams were grounded, pelletized and then pyrolyzed in a continuous bench scale rotary kiln at 450, 550 and 650degreeC. The mass flow rate of the ASR pellets was 200-350g/h and each test ran for about 4-5h. The produced char, pyrolysis oil and syngas were quantified to determine product distribution. They were thoroughly analyzed with regard to their chemical and physical properties. The results show how higher temperatures increase the pyrolysis gas yield (44wt% at 650degreeC) as well as its heating value. The low heating value (LHV) of syngas ranges between 18 and 26MJ/Nm3dry. The highest pyrolysis oil yield (33wt.%) was observed at 550degreeC and its LHV ranges between 12.5 and 14.5MJ/kg. Furthermore, only two out of the six produced chars respect the LHV limit set by the Italian environmental regulations for landfilling. The obtained results in terms of product distribution and their chemical-physical analyses provide useful information for plant scale-up.]]> Wed, 27 Dec 2017 10:29:21 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/1493224 Improved Geophysical Imaging for Engineering and Infrastructure Projects Using the Multi-Electrode Resistivity Implant Technique (MERIT) Case Studies in Florida https://trid.trb.org/View/1474427 Mon, 31 Jul 2017 16:36:05 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/1474427
