Question
Chapter 31, Problem 31.23P
Interpretation Introduction
(a)
Interpretation:
The products formed on combustion of polyethylene are to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The waste treatment method involves the combustion of waste substance into fuel gas and ash. The combustion of organic substances produces carbon dioxide and water along with release of energy.
Interpretation Introduction
(b)
Interpretation:
The products formed on combustion of polyethylene terephthalate are to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The waste treatment method involves the combustion of waste substance into fuel gas and ash. The combustion of organic substances produces carbon dioxide and water along with release of energy.
Interpretation Introduction
(c)
Interpretation:
The validation of the corresponding fact that whether the combustion reaction of PET and polyethylene is exothermic or endothermic is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The waste treatment method involves the combustion of waste substance into fuel gas and ash. The combustion of organic substances produces carbon dioxide and water along with release of energy.
Interpretation Introduction
(d)
Interpretation:
The reason is to why HDPE and PET must be separated from poly (vinyl chloride) prior to incineration is to be proposed.
Concept introduction:
The waste treatment method involves the combustion of waste substance into fuel gas and ash. The combustion of organic substances produces carbon dioxide and water along with release of energy.
