Rising carbon dioxide emissions are driving climate change and there is growing pressure to find alternative energy sources. Co-combustion of waste with fuels is still occurring in some regions of the world, and it is important to know the compounds emitted from such combustion. This study investigated the emissions from the combustion of wood pellets with waste. The wood pellet was combusted with different additions of polyethylene terephthalate plastic and medium-density fiberboard (10 and 50%), in a low-power boiler (18W). Phenols, alkylphenols, phthalates, biomass burning markers, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon emissions were determined. Gas chromatography coupled with a mass spectrometry detector was used to analyze these compounds after extraction and derivatization in the particulate matter and gas phase. The emissions of biomass burning markers and phthalates were the highest among all the compounds determined for MDF addition. The total emission of these compounds was 685 mg/h and 408 mg/h for 10% addition and 2401 mg/h and 337 mg/h for 50% addition, respectively. For the co-combustion of biomass with PET, PAHs and phenols had the highest emission; the emission was 197 mg/h and 114.5 mg/h for 10% addition and 268 mg/h and 200 mg/h for 50% addition, respectively. In our opinion, the obtained results are insufficient for the identification of source apportionment from household heating. After further study, tested compounds could be treated as markers for the identification of the fuel type combusted in households.

Rosnąca emisja dwutlenku węgla powoduje zmiany klimatyczne przez co rośnie presja na poszukiwanie alternatywnych źródeł energii. Współspalanie odpadów z paliwami nadal występuje w niektórych regionach świata, dlatego istotna jest wiedza na temat związków emitowanych z takiego spalania. W niniejszej pracy zbadano wpływ dodatku odpadów na emisję ze współspalania z biomasą. Pelet drzewny współspalano z różnymi dodatkami plastiku z politereftalanu etylenu i płyty pilśniowej średniej gęstości (10 i 50%), w kotle małej mocy (18 W). Oznaczono emisję fenoli, alkilofenoli, ftalanów, markerów spalania biomasy oraz wielopierścieniowych węglowodorów aromatycznych. Do analizy tych związków po ekstrakcji i derywatyzacji w fazie pyłowej i gazowej zastosowano chromatografię gazową sprzężoną ze spektrometrem mas. Emisja znaczników spalania biomasy oraz ftalanów była najwyższa spośród wszystkich związków oznaczonych dla dodatku MDF. Całkowita emisja tych związków wynosiła odpowiednio 685 mg/h i 408 mg/h dla 10% dodatku oraz 2401 mg/h i 337 mg/h dla 50% dodatku. Dla współspalania biomasy z PET największą emisję miały WWA i fenole; emisja wynosiła odpowiednio 197 mg/h i 114,5 mg/h dla 10% dodatku oraz 268 mg/h i 200 mg/h dla 50% dodatku. Naszym zdaniem uzyskane wyniki są niewystarczające do identyfikacji źródeł zanieczyszczeń z ogrzewania gospodarstw domowych. Po dalszych badaniach, badane związki mogłyby być traktowane jako markery do identyfikacji rodzaju paliwa spalanego w gospodarstwach domowych.
