Waste Incineration and the Combustion Process
27-30 October 2008
Amsterdam
Who Should Attend
This intensive course is intended for those professionals
involved in any aspect of incinerating waste material in an
incinerator, boiler, fired heater, furnace or kiln. It would be
most beneficial but not limited to:-
Engineers
- Plant Personnel
- Environmental Scientists
- Managers
- Analysts
- Technologists
Those seeking pragmatic information on combustion
chemistry and pollutant formation mechanisms (such as
dioxin, NOX and salts) and the latest proven equipment
technologies available to achieve successful incineration of
hazardous or non-hazardous waste should also attend.
Description
This course presents a practical approach to the incineration
of hazardous and non-hazardous waste in various types of
combustion systems. You will be guided through the details of
equipment selection based on principles of chemistry, fluid
mechanics, thermodynamics and pollution formation
mechanisms.
Applications will be made to the incineration of all species of
waste including municipal wastes. Many types of equipment
will be discussed including rotary kilns, modular units, fluidized
bed, multiple hearth, boiler firebox, furnaces and fired heaters.
Air pollution control, stack monitoring, safety interlocks and
instrumentation will be discussed.
Combustion mechanisms, heat/material balances and the
selection of principle organic constituents will be presented in
the context of various European and U.S. environmental
regulations including the IPPC act.
