“…That is, the promotion effect of different metal additives on PCDD/F formation followed a sequence of CuCl2 (292×) > FeCl3 (132×) > ZnCl2 (105×) ≫ CuO (2.5×) > Fe2O3 (1.5×) > ZnO (1.1×), wherein the metal chlorides showed 2 orders of magnitude higher promotion than that of metal oxides. The proportion of highly chlorinated PCDD/Fs was further increased after adding metal chlorides, while the additional metal oxides decreased it. …”
