Municipal Waste Incinerator is a waste treatment technology that involves the combustion of waste at high temperatures. Incineration and other high-temperature waste treatments are described as “thermal treatment”. In effect, incineration of waste materials converts the waste into heat (that can be used to generate electricity), sends gaseous emissions to the atmosphere, and makes residual ash.
Incinerator
Waste management has become a major concern worldwide and incineration is now being increasingly used to treat waste that cannot be economically recycled or treated. Incineration is a waste treatment technology that involves the combustion of organic materials. Incineration of waste materials converts waste into Incinerator bottom ash, flue gas, particulates, and heat. The flue gases are cleaned before dispersing in the atmosphere.
Maximus Envirotech offers incineration solutions for a wide range of waste. Our wide experience & exhaustive analysis of the problems helps in providing the right type of solutions for different types of waste. Our incinerators are state-of-the-art units specially designed considering the physical & chemical properties of wastes. Our incinerators are operated by PLC controlled system to ensure failsafe and error-free operation.
Primary Furnace
The waste is charged into this chamber through special waste feeding systems to ensure no exposure of people working near the furnace. The waste is incinerated in this furnace in an oxygen-rich atmosphere. In this furnace, waste is decomposed into volatile gases and carbonaceous material. The furnace is maintained under a negative draft and the low velocity of gases helps in minimizing the carryover of particulate matter. The furnace temperature is closely controlled between 850 Deg C & 900 Deg C using the Auto operation of the Burner. The ashes are removed from the furnace after the operation from Ash Door.
Secondary Furnace
The flue gases coming from the primary furnace containing volatiles & unburnt carbonaceous material are burnt in a second furnace in turbulent conditions. Complete oxidation of the flue gases is ensured by maintaining a temperature above 1000 Deg C & supply of additional Air. A proper residence time is ensured for the destruction of all volatiles.
