This procedure is used to represent incineration of wastewater sludges, hazardous wastes (liquid or solid), and municipal solid wastes. The primary objective of the model is to calculate the composition of the flue gas stream and estimate the flowrate of auxiliary fuel if needed.

Special Inputs / Outputs

      Waste: the designated input port for the waste stream.

      Fuel: the designated input port for the fuel stream.

      Air: the designated input port for the air stream.

      Flue Gas: the designated output port for the flue gas stream.

      Ash: the designated output port for the ash stream.
