Management of Solid Waste Containing Fluoride—A Review
Abstract Technological and economic development have influenced the amount of post-production waste. Post-industrial waste, generated in the most considerable amount, includes, among others, waste related to the mining, metallurgical, and energy industries. Various non-hazardous or hazardous wastes can be used to produce new construction materials after the “solidification/stabilization” processes. They can be used as admixtures […]

Transformation and migration mechanism of fluorine-containing pollutants in the pyrolysis process of spent lithium-ion battery.
Highlights Adsorption of electrodes to electrolyte can lead to fluorine-containing residues. Melting PVDF prevents the deep removal of fluorine-containing pollutants. A synergistic transformation mechanism of fluorine during pyrolysis is proposed. Abstract Pyrolysis is an effective method to remove organics (e.g. electrolytes and binders) from spent lithium-ion battery (LIB). In this study, the co-pyrolysis characteristics of […]

Action Alert: EPA Searching for Incinerators to Quickly Conduct an Experiment On PFAS in Emissions.
Contact Your State Environmental Commissioner to Stop This From Happening in Your State The Issue: While the disposal of PFAS chemicals poses serious challenges, the rush to burn these chemicals is on, despite no evidence they can be safely incinerated. EPA is trying to find an incinerator to be part of an experiment regarding PFAS […]
