Incineration Process

 

What is Incineration?  |  Various Stages of Production of Incinerators

  • Reduction of Waste is achieved in the primary chamber which has a controlled atmosphere. During incineration of waste streams with moderate to high heating values this chamber is maintained at sub stoichiometric oxygen level. A temperature of 800+50°C (or more) is maintained for suitable reduction of waste.

  • Gases exiting the primary chamber contain carbon monoxide, unburnt hydro carbons, water vapour and the compounds related to the reduction of specific waste stream.

  • Gases from the primary chamber are drawn up or over into a secondary chamber. Temperature of the secondary chamber is maintained at 1050+50°C (or more) by fuel burner. The design of the chamber ensures sufficient residence time of all secondary chamber gases suitable for complete oxidation/ reduction of all volatile compounds.

  • The gases exiting the secondary chamber are thereafter sent to the flue gas emission control system.
