    3 Books a Process Engineer Should Read...

    I suppose I should not be touting my own book, but if your environmental work includes incineration, I suggest "Combustion and Incineration Processes" . . . 3rd Edition (2002) by Walter Niessen - Marcel Dekker, NY. The book covers basic and applied combustion theory; tables showing the chemical...

    Dewpoint of moist Hydrogen Fluoride in flue gases

    I have concerns regarding condensation and subsequent corrosion in the metal parts of a boiler that follows an incinerator burning a fluorocarbon (generating HF in the flue gases). HF concentrations can be as high as 5000 ppm. I cannot find a correlation with which to estimate the dewpoint as a...

    Estimation of dewpoint of HF in moist flue gases

    I am working on an incinerator for polyflurocarbon-containing wastes followed by a waste heat boiler. To anticipate (and avoid) corrosion problems, I need to know the dewpoint of the flue gases as a function of HF and moisture partial pressures. I have correlations for most acid gases . . . but...
