Description:

The organics research program of NRMRL's Air Pollution Prevention and Control Division's Air Pollution Technology Branch focuses on combustion derived products of incomplete combustion (PICs) with current emphasis on halogenated air toxics such as chlorinated dioxins/furans (PCDD/F), mixed chlorinated/brominated compounds, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). This focus is unique for all government combustion research laboratories. Program objectives consist of (1) understanding mechanisms of how organic air toxics are formed to enable process modifications that will prevent these pollutants from being formed and to be able to predict emissions from new sources, (2) characterizing emissions of organic air toxics to enable informed source inventories and regulatory development, and (3) developing analytical, sampling, and instrumental methods to aid these research program objectives.
