2.1 Laboratory Melting System

The melting system consists of a high- temperature furnace, a secondary combustion chamber, and one set of APCDs including a cooling unit collects the condensed water of the volatile gas, a filter collects particles, and three-stage glass PUF cartridge adsorption collects the gaseous phase compound as illustrated in Figure 1. The specifications of the melting system are as follows. The high-temperature furnace has a width of 210 mm, a length of 280 mm, and a height of 220 mm, with a maximum temperature of 1600 °C, and the heat loading is 6.6 kW. The furnace has an inner graphite crucible, and on top of this crucible is a cone-shaped cap hood for collecting volatile gases. The volatile gases collected by the cap hood will be delivered with an Al 2 O 3 tube to the secondary combustion chamber for further combustion or introduced to the APCDs. The secondary combustion chamber has an inside diameter of 50 mm and a length of 1000 mm, with a maximum temperature of 1300 °C, and the heat loading is 6.6 kW. The flue gas cooling unit with indirect water cooling has an inside diameter of 25 mm and a length of 1700 mm. The diameter of the filter is 51 mm, and each stage of the three-stage PUF cartridge adsorption has a length of 130 mm. Three separate tests were performed by measuring PBDE in the third stage of the PUF cartridge to ensure the gaseous PBDE are insignificant, , and less than 2 PBDE mass was found at the third stage of the PUF cartridge. The waste flexible PBDE were first cut into small pieces ca. 5 x 5 x 0.5 mm, and metals on the surface were stripped off by aqua regia extraction. The waste PBDE was pretreated to prevent the metals from corroding the equipment. The concentrations of Al, Cu, Ni, and Au in the extraction solution were analyzed with the same ICP-AES instrument. When the metals were stripped off the surface of the waste PBDE by the aqua regia solution, the concentration of metals was reduced by 75-95 and the weight of the PBDE reduced by approximately 25. The experimental sample placed inside a graphite crucible was put in the furnace; the furnace temperature was than increased to 850 or 1450 °C at 6 °C min -1 held for 30 min, with the secondary combustion chamber at 900 °C. The pump rate for withdrawing gaseous samples was 10 L min -1 . The batch experiment was repeated twice. After the pyrolysis process, the bottom ash, fly ash, and cartridge were collected and analyzed to determine the concentrations of PBDE on the basis of the National Environment Analysis Method NIEA M801.11B of Taiwan, similar to USEPAB modified method 23A [3].

2.2 PBDE Analysis

Analyses of PBDE samples were performed in a certified laboratory in Taiwan to analyze PBDE. Each sample was spiked with a known standard and extracted for 24 h. Then the extract was concentrated and treated with sulfuric acid; this was followed by a series of cleanup and fraction procedures. The standard solution was added to the sample before PBDE analysis to ensure the recovery during analysis. Because of a lack of other standards, seven individual PBDE including four individual PBDE sand three individual PBDE were analyzed by using high-resolution gas chromatographymass spectrometry HRGCMS. The HRGC instrument Hewlett-Packard 6970 series gas, California was equipped with an RTX- 5MS column L 30 m, i.d. 0.25 mm, film thickness 0.25 ím and splitless injection JW Scientific, California. The oven temperature was programmed according to the following: initial temperature at 150 °C held for 1 min, increased to 220 °C at 40 °C min-1, then increased to 240 °C at 2 °C min-1, and then increased to 310 °C at 10 °C min-1 held for 1 min. Helium was used as the carrier gas. The HRMS instrument Micromass Autospec Ultima, Manchester, U.K. was equipped with a positive electron impact EI+ source. The analyzer mode was selected ion monitoring with a resolving power of 10000. The electron energy and the source temperature were set at 35 eV and 250 °C, respectively. The method detection limits of the seven individual PBDE for bottom ash samples, cooling unit samples, filter samples, and glass PUF cartridge samples were found between 0.318 and 4.132 ngkg, 0.001 and 0.008 ng, 0.001 and 0.021 ISSN 2086-5953 ngNm 3 , and 0.004-0.071 ngNm 3 , respectively. The recovery for the seven individual PBDE compounds ranged from 50 to 107 [3]. 3 RESULT The PBDEs content before washing from 50 o C to 1450 o C as list on Table 1. Highest value occur at temperature 1200 o C and it is about 33137 pgg. From Figure 1, PBDEs content remain the same from 50 o C to 1000 o C, but it drastically change after 1000 o C. Table 1.

Highest value occur at temperature 1300 o C and it is about 492 pgg. PBDEs content from 1100 o C to 1350 o C have unstable concentration and it is due to the de Novo synthesis Figure 2. Table 2.

Temperature vs PBDEs content, before washing ISSN 2086-5953 The PBDEs content before washing have similar pattern, but after washing, the reformation are not shown, was shown on Figure 3. It means that before washing, bromine on PBDEs content does not wash. Figure 3. Temperature vs PBDEs content, before and after washing 4 CONCLUSION AND DISCUSSION Total PBDEs concentration before washing is 23100, 33137, 30974, 24514 pgg, respectively, occur at temperature from 1100 o C to 1350 o C. It has unstable concentration, causing by de Novo synthesis. Total PBDEs concentration after washing has concentration from 392 to 394, with various concentration. Its because chlorine had already wash out. Fly ash before washing has reduction reformation through de Novo synthesis, compare with fly ash after washing. In order to develop dioxin inventory, the activity data for the entire country as well as a local area need to be established and updated by the environment protection department. In addition to air, PBDEs are released to other media or compartments, e.g., water, land, product, and residue, which were neglected in Taiwan. These issues need to be considered in the future.

Dam break flow includes several features of existing problems in the area of fluid mechanics, environment protection, marine hydrodynamics, and coastal engineering. Dam break flow is widely used as a classical test case for numerical simulation of free surface and moving boundary. Solutions are accomplished with Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics SPH technique using a pc cluster. For dam break flow impact against the obstacle, the flow impacts on the vertical wall at t = 0.8 sec, at time t = 1.2 sec an upward water jet is suddenly formed and over- turning wave with an adverse momentum is observed at t = 1.3 sec. Impact pressure flow on a wall of the obstacle is 2.39 Nm2 and velocity in y direction is 4.32 msec. Regarding dam break flow impact against obstacle-clearance, high velocity and shallow water depth flow are happened in x- direction at t = 0.35 sec. The two flow face each other and this two flow impact the vertical flow then simulate a splash. This happened at t = 1.1 sec. The established SPH model is able to capture over- turning wave phenomena and splash phenomena. Keywords: Dam Break, Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics, Obstacle, Obstacle-clearance.  1 INTRODUCTION
