Show a purely qualitative basis as well more quantitatively through computer simulation on the basis of a plug flow reactor model. Of the one and two carbon fluorinated carbons that have been studied, it is clear that perfluoromethane is the most difficult to destroy. The other compounds have combustion characteristics that are apparently not that much different than fuels such as methane and ethane itself. Differentiation regarding the incinerability of these compounds may be difficult. The problem of PICs is discussed and it is suggested that aside from direct field studies, simulations may play an important role in systematizing the nature and quantities that may be formed. The importance of a high quality chemical kinetic data base for the simulation studies is stressed. REFERENCES 1.
