Question

Name the types of incineration plants.

Answer 1

1. Batch type plant: Such a plant is manually fed and has a relatively small rated capacity in an intermittently operating mode, thus lacking a uniform burning temperature. This promotes inadequate combustion.
2. Continuous feed plant: It has large storage bins and automatic feed and ash removal systems. The unit maintains a uniform temperature range, can be fitted with pollution control devices, albeit at a higher cost, and generally yields a stable residue.
