Characterization of High Temperature Incinerator Slags,

摘要

The objective of this project was to evaluate high temperature incineration as a potential solution to the management of municipal refuse. This potential is manifested in established major advantages,such as up to 97.5percent volume reduction,separation in the molten state to a metal and glass residue and reduction of pollution problems. The full potential of high temperature incineration can be realized if the residue is considered a raw material resource for conversions to useful metallic and ceramic products. To achieve such a realization the metallic and glass residue must be characterized in terms of process variables. A number of process variables were screened that could alter the final material properties of the metal and glass residue. Such variables were combustion atmosphere,garbage composition,incinerating temperature,and length of soak. The most important of these variables were investigated in terms of their effect on measured chemical,physical,and microstructure properties.
