The research aims to develop municipal solid waste (MSW) incinerators for higher thermal efficiency and minimal pollution from combustion. 3D CFD model is developed that consist of a combustion chamber cyclone. A incinerator with 250 kg/h capacity modeled. simulated the comparative behavior between finned smooth walls. results indicated finned-walled exhibited more turbulent flow air distributi...

EPA Test Methods 301 and 320 include statistical techniques for validating sampling methods in specific gas matrices. Several of these techniques were used to analyze extractive FTIR data collected at a municipal solid waste incinerator and to validate the method for hydrogen chloride (HCl) measurements. FTIR results for carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur dioxide (S02), and nitric oxide (NO) were als...

In Denmark a considerable number of houses are connected to a district heating system. In a district heating system several production units may exist, and for the considered district heating system this is indeed the case. The production cost varies from production unit to production unit – the cheapest is often a waste incinerator plant. The varying consumption of heat means that some units n...
