Sintering Behavior and Chlorine Volatilization Mechanism of Cl-Containing Solid Waste in Clay Brick Production: Implications for Tunnel Kiln Applications by Zhu Liu, Shupeng Wen, Jian Wang, Yi Li, Linqiang Mao, Yang Yang, Zhongquan Liu

“…Thermodynamic and TG-MS analyses reveal Cl salts are stable below 800 °C but release HCl (g) at higher temperatures due to lower reaction energy barriers than Cl₂ (g). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that H⁺ for HCl (g) formation primarily originates from water vapor (H₂O), with organic decomposition having minimal effect. …”
