The temperature in the non-rotating chamber in the incineration of industrial and hazardous waste process has a range:

Correct answer: C. 950 to 1300°C

  • A. 900 to 1000°C
  • B. 250 to 500°C
  • C. 950 to 1300°C
  • D. 500 to 900°C

Explanation

A general process of high temperature incineration system consists of a rotary kiln which accepts all types of wastes including liquid, solid or sludge. The wastes are burned at temperatures between 650° to 1100°C. Ash from the rotating chamber is collected at waste tank and the remaining liquid gaseous materials are passed to the secondary chamber. This chamber is non-rotating and hence the temperature range of 950° to 1300°C is maintained. In this chamber organic molecules are completely destroyed.
