The dried sewage sludges were pulverized and combusted in an oxygen-enriched atmosphere to investigate the emission of particulate matter smaller than 1.0 μm (PM1). Combustions were conducted at 1200 °C in a drop tube furnace with the oxygen content varying from 10% to 30% and 50% in the gas atmosphere. The collected PM1 was characterized including its concentration, particle size distribution, and the size-dependence of the elemental composition and chemical species. The results indicate that, after the complete combustion of sludges, the PM1 formed accounts for about 1∼7% on the basis of total ash, which is influenced significantly by the oxygen content in the gas atmosphere as well as the sludge type. In general, because of the improvement on the temperature of char particles and their breakage, the amount of PM1 is increased exponentially with the increasing of the oxygen content. With regard to PM1 formation mechanisms, the refractory elements within it, including Si, Al, Ca, Fe, and Mg, undergo two ...
