Abstract
High-Temperature Air Combustion Technology is an attractive method for producing surplus electric power and reducing environmental disruption materials such as NOx and dioxins especially in combustion process of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) incinerator. The objective is to develop an energy-saving system for the MSW incinerator and to lower the emission pollutants. The experimental study is carried out systematically with simulated MSW furnaces (500kg-waste/h and commercial plant) to study the thermal degradation and the distributions of temperature and gas concentrations in the furnaces. Blowing the mixture of high temperature air and the flue gas to the primary combustion space brings extremely stable combustion. Moreover, it reduces not only the NOx, CO and the other toxic products, but also more than 20% of the excess air.
