Purpose:

Waste to be processed in the reactor: and many others…

The high-temperature incineration technology for all types of waste involves a combustion process organized within units featuring two distinct combustion zones. The primary zone facilitates the initial combustion process and active gasification, while the secondary zone ensures the complete combustion (afterburning) of the gases produced. This configuration of the gasification-based thermal reactor allows for the use of virtually any organic material as fuel—whether pre-processed (standard fuel) or unprocessed (various types of organic waste)—with moisture content of up to 60%.

The temperature in the afterburning zone reaches 1300°C or higher. Under these conditions, complex organic compounds undergo complete thermal decomposition, enabling the reactors to be used for the disposal of all types of organic waste, including hazardous materials. The reactors operate without the need for external energy sources.

When the technology is applied for waste disposal, auxiliary fuel—either gaseous or liquid—is required to bring the reactor up to its operating temperature (preheating). The reactor can be equipped with systems to accelerate the decomposition of particularly complex organic compounds, ensuring optimal purity of the exhaust gases. Furthermore, disposal systems can be fitted with specialized filters. The reaction process is maintained and regulated by an automated control system.

This fundamental design ensures maximum operational safety. The reactor’s internal lining consists of high-temperature refractory materials capable of withstanding temperatures of at least 1800°C, which guarantees a reliable and long service life. Reactors, fuel-loading mechanisms, and heat-recovery systems can be custom-designed to handle specific types of waste and meet particular technological requirements. Every stage of the process—from fuel loading to heat extraction—can be fully automated. The reactor is equipped with a control panel, which the operator uses to input the parameters that must be maintained during the unit’s operation.

Throughout the entire waste disposal process, sensors are used to measure the temperature in both the combustion chamber and the secondary combustion chamber. Data from the thermocouples is transmitted to the controller.

Following combustion, the ash residue and solid slag—amounting to 3–5% of the initial volume—are removed via a screw conveyor system and subsequently disposed of as low-hazard waste.

Combustible volatile compounds generated during the incineration process are directed into the reactor’s secondary combustion chamber (afterburner).

In this chamber, the gases are subjected to higher temperatures than those in the primary furnace chamber—typically ranging from 1100°C to 1300°C. Here, the volatile combustible compounds are further neutralized, resulting in what is known as “clear smoke,” which is entirely environmentally safe.

The neutralized gases are then released into the atmosphere through a chimney, causing no harm to the environment.

Based on this technology, reactors have been developed, manufactured, and tested that utilize woodworking waste (such as sawdust, wood chips, and offcuts) to serve as heat generators.

A high-pressure water-tube heat exchanger can be integrated into heating systems or other industrial processes requiring thermal energy; it supports operating pressures of up to 10 atmospheres and can function with either natural or forced circulation.

An air-based heat exchanger can be used to produce hot air, with a temperature differential of up to 900°C.

The solid slag produced represents a 30- to 40-fold reduction in the original volume of the waste. This material can either be sent to a landfill or briquetted for subsequent use as a construction material.
