Book Description
This report presents the results of a field evaluation of the operating prototype modular (package) augered-bed, heat-recovery, solid-waste incinerator (ABI) conducted on 23-28 May 1977. The ABI tested is a horizontal, cylindrical, cast refractory-faced combustion chamber fitted with a water-cooled auger to convey burning waste. Feeding and ash removal are continuous, and steam is produced in a coiled heat exchanger at the base of the stack from water preheated in the auger. The throughput capacity of the furnace is approximately 3.5 tons/hour (3.2 mt/hour), more than three times the capacity of currently marketed modular incinerators. The report furnishes a detailed description of the system evaluated, a critical appraisal of essential unit operations, and environmental and energy data. The satisfactory performance of the furnace, which is a major innovative aspect of the unit evaluated, indicated that it has potential for Army use. However, because of the unreliability of mechanical auxiliaries, inadequate materials of construction, and poor system configuration, the ABI as it presently exists cannot be recommended for immediate deployment for processing solid waste generated on Army fixed facilities and installations. It was concluded that re-engineering around the furnace using established methods could make a practicable heat-recovery solid-waste incineration system available. (Author).

Pages : 280
Book Description
This program involved a technical, environmental, and economic assessment of the feasibility of utilizing small modular incinerator systems for solid waste disposal in municipal and industrial applications. The assessment was implemented by (1) overviewing the state-of-the-art, (2) selecting two operational sites (one municipal and one industrial) representative of the state-of-the-art, and (3) subjecting these two sites to a rigorous field evaluation. The two facilities selected for this study were a municipal incinerator plant with a Consumat system in North Little Rock, Arkansas, and the industrial incinerator facility with a Kelley system in the plant of the Truck Axle Division of the Rockwell International Corporation in Marysville, Ohio. This selection was the result of a nationwide survey to find those two facilities which best satisfied several criteria. The principal selection requirements were a solid waste processing module with heat recovery and a capacity of 50 tons or less per day and its being representative of current technology, designs, and operational procedures.
