Equipment for incineration of municipal waste / F.D. Friedrich, Canadian Combustion Research Laboratory, Fuels Research Centre.: M34-20/134E-PDF
“Incineration offers one method of coping with the rapidly increasing quantities of solid municipal waste, but incinerators must be carefully designed and operated to avoid air pollution. Some of the North American codes governing incinerator construction are outlined, and a range of available equipment is described, from small incinerators suitable for apartment buildings or commercial establishments, to large European systems which produce steam for district heating or power generation. It is pointed out that small incinerators are, essentially, volume reduction devices using substantial quantities of high-quality fuel to support the incineration process, whereas large heat-recovery incinerators use the waste as fuel to produce energy"--Abstract, p. i.
