Method for recuperating glass and metal from slags remaining in an apparatus for burning wastes

摘要

Glass and metal are recovered separately from the solid residues produced in a refuse incineration plant, in particular from slag, by melting. The melting is carried out in two zones. In the first, upper melting zone, the oxidic constituents of the residues are converted into a glass melt. In the second, lower melting zone, the metallic constituents of the residues are converted into a metal melt at elevated temperature. The two melts are isolated separately.
