Utilization of an Organic Calcium Compound to Reduce SO<sub>2</sub> and NO Emissions from Sewage Sludge Combustion
To
remove gas pollutant emissions from sewage sludge combustion,
modified calcium magnesium acetate (MCMA) was used as an organic calcium
compound (OCC) to blend with sludge. The main objective of this study
was to determine the pollutant emission characteristics of sewage
sludge and fuel blended with MCMA during combustion in a tube furnace.
The effects of operating parameters on the mean SO<sub>2</sub> and
NO emissions and the reduction ratios of SO<sub>2</sub> and NO were
investigated. The results showed that MCMA simultaneously captured
69.9% of SO<sub>2</sub> and 31.3% of NO at a temperature of 800 Ā°C
and a Ca/S molar ratio of 2.0. Furthermore, the Ca/S ratio and reaction
temperature significantly impacted the mean SO<sub>2</sub> emission
and SO<sub>2</sub> reduction ratio. The SO<sub>2</sub> reduction ratio
increased with increases of the Ca/S ratio and temperature. However,
SO<sub>2</sub> emission decreased with increasing Ca/S ratio but increased
with increasing reaction temperature. In addition to the main effects
corresponding to single factors, the interaction effect of air flow
rate and Ca/S ratio was a dominant factor that affected the mean NO
emission and NO reduction ratio

Tracing Road Network Bottleneck by Data Driven Approach
<div><p>Urban road congestions change both temporally and spatially. They are essentially caused by network bottlenecks. Therefore, understanding bottleneck dynamics is critical in the goal of reasonably allocating transportation resources. In general, a typical bottleneck experiences the stages of formation, propagation and dispersion. In order to understand the three stages of a bottle neck and how the bottleneck moves on a road network, traffic flow data can be used to reconstruct these dynamics. However, raw traffic flow data is usually flawed in many ways. For instance some portion of data may be missing due to the failure of data collection devices, or some random factors in the data make it hard to identify real bottlenecks. In this paper a āuser voting methodā is proposed to deal with such raw-data-related issues. In this method, road links are ranked according to the weighed sum of certain performance measures and the links that are ranked relatively high are regarded as recurrent bottlenecks in a network, and several bottlenecks form a bottleneck area. A series of bottleneck parameters can be defined based on the identified bottleneck areas, such as bottleneck coverage, bottleneck link length, etc. Identifying bottleneck areas and calculating the bottleneck parameters for each time interval can reflect the evolution of the bottlenecks and also help trace how the bottlenecks move.</p></div
