Impact/Purpose:

This paper reports on a study to examine the thermal decomposition of surrogate CWAs (in this case, Malathion) in a laboratory reactor, analysis of the results using reactor design theory, and subsequent scale-up of the results to a computersimulation of a full-scale commercial hazardous waste incinerator processing ceiling tile contaminated with residual Malathion.
