主　　题：Refuse incinerators 

摘      要：Bromine is used as the building block for some of the most effective flame retarding agents available to the plastics industry today. They are used to protect against the risk of accidental fires in a wide range of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE). Brominated flame retardants (BFRs), as all flame-retardants, act to decrease the risk of fire by increasing the resistance to ignition of the materials in which they are incorporated. There is a perception that BFRs affect adversely the end-of-life management of plastics through the formation of brominated dioxins and furans (PBDD/F) or due to corrosion. There exists a wide range of data and practical experience demonstrating that the end-of-life management of plastics containing BFRs is fully compliant with legislation meeting the strictest limit values for PBXD/F and, also, fully compatible with an integrated waste management concept. The publication of the EU Directive on Waste of EEE in 2003 means there is more pressure to handle these plastics in an environmental manner. The objective is to come with an overall solution in addition to mechanical recycling including the thermal processes. Therefore an evaluation of the different recycling options including energy recovery was evaluated by the industry.
