title = "Combustion of Sludge Waste in FBC: Distribution of Metals and Particle Sizes",
abstract = "Metal-solid particle characteristics during combustion of a sludge waste were studied in order to explore the potential of fluidized bed combustion as an alternative method to landfilling. Analyses of individual fly ash particles indicated that heavy metal elements were generally located in regions near the particle's core. Lighter metals were present across the entire cross-section of a particle, with the highest concentrations at the particle surface. These distributions were found to be similar regardless of the type of bed material. This suggests that the light metal layers are formed because of the internal rearrangements of a chemical nature as opposed to physical deposition of light metal fragments on particle surfaces.",
