METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR THE ENVIRONMENTALLY COMPATIBLE VITRIFICATION OF FLUID OR SOLID RESIDUES FROM SPECIAL-CLASS WASTE INCINERATORS

摘要

Waste is incinerated in a rotary furnace which discharges slag and exhaust gas connected to an afterburning chamber. The slag is discharged from the afterburning chamber directly into a glass melting furnace while the exhaust gas is removed to scrubbers which remove residues which are then fed to the glass melting furnace. Cullet and other glass forming materials are also added to the furnace in order to form a vitrified product.
