Abstract
In this study, experiments on the destruction of Halon 1301 were conducted in an industrial waste incineration facility with a rotary kiln, which has a significant record of destroying chlorofluorocarbons. As a result, gaseous Halon 1301 could be discharged stably from a tank and injected into the rotary kiln by putting the tank upside down and sprinkling water on the tank. The destruction efficiency of Halon 1301 could be below the required value depending on the technique and position of Halon injection into the rotary kiln. Based on these results, we demonstrated that Halon 1301 can be destroyed with high efficiency and safety by thoroughly mixing Halon with air in a pre-chamber and bringing the Halon into contact with the flame.
