Focus: When Waste Is Incinerated, What Happens to Potentially Toxic Heavy Metals?

Focus: When Waste Is Incinerated, What Happens to Potentially Toxic Heavy Metals?

Today’s Goal: Students will evaluate the products created by incineration of waste and evaluate pros and cons of incineration

Focus: When waste is incinerated, what happens to potentially toxic heavy metals?

Main Learning Goal: Identify types of hazards and the appropriate ways to handle and dispose of them. This includes being able to compare and contrast physical and chemical methods of waste management

Date:Tues 12/10/13

Title: Activity 26, Incinerating the Waste

Key Words: Combustion, control, exothermic, incineration, indicator, products, reactants

Warm Up: Is the following Chemical Equation for breathing, a balanced equation? Show counts of each type of atom.

C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O

**Draw data table p. B-69- Procedure 1

**Add definitions from back to your glossary:

On Desk: ● Pen/pencil

  • Lab Notebook
  • Science Book
  • Science Folder with Glossary
  • I will be checking Reflection and Equation Balance ws

We will:

  • Review Warm up
  • Read p. B-68
  • Review Analysis questions
  • Demonstration- record observations in data table
  • Discuss incineration and evaluate positives and negatives- add to orange chart.

BEFORE LEAVING CLASS:

Reflection: Describe what you did and/or learned today…

Homework- Analysis 1-3, p. B-70

Add these definitions to your Glossary:

Combustion A chemical reaction that takes place when a carbon-containing fuel source is ignited in the presence of oxygen

IncinerationThe burning of wastes at very high temperatures- greater than 650◦ C (1,200◦ F) resulting in the complete combustion of wastes.
