Thirty Years of Satisfactory Fluid Bed Sludge Incineration - The Northwest Bergen County Utilities Authority Experience
ABSTRACT Fluid bed incineration has been used as a sludge disposal method at the Northwest Bergen County Utilities Authority since 1969 when the first incineration unit was installed. In 2000, the third generation plant became operational. Over this period, environmental regulations have changed, as have the State mandated air pollution control devices. Since the State mandated a wet ...

Overview of municipal sludge fluid bed incineration in North America – from green to greener – the Lakeview, the Duffin Creek and the Southerly experiences
Thermal processes used in sludge disposal have become more attractive as process improvements have been introduced, such as power generation and efficient heat recovery. More and more utilities and agencies are reevaluating their sludge management practices to ensure that they are providing sustainable management solutions for their clients. The thermal process design approach to the disposal of ...

Control Problems Waste Feeds in Fluid Beds (PDF - File size 71K)
High concentrations of alkali salts, iron, and phosphorus in sludge can cause operating problems in fluid-bed incinerators. Understand how clinker and scale form, and how to prevent difficulties. A major advantage of a high-temperature fluid bed (HTFB) is its ability to accept unsteady feed. Because a large quantity of heat is stored in the granular bed material, fluctuations in feed rate, ...

A Comparison of Fluid Bed and Multiple Hearth Biosolids Incineration
Abstract Incineration has been used as a disposal method for wastewater treatment biosolids for over sixty years. The first multiple hearth furnace for biosolids incineration was built in 1935 in Dearborn, MI. From that time through the late sixties, the multiple hearth was the thermal technique of choice for biosolids disposal. Today there are still some 150-175 aging multiple hearths in ...

Minimization of Major Air Pollutants from Sewage Sludge Fluid Bed Incinerators
ABSTRACT Emissions of major air pollutants including carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and mercury (Hg) were studied at two sewage sludge fluidized bed combustion (FBC) plants. Both the North West Bergen (NWB) County Utility Authority and the Little Miami (LM) plants have air pollution control systems (APCS) that are of the wet type. Various operating conditions such as ...

Replacement of a Multiple Hearth by a Fluid Bed Incinerator - The Greensboro Experience (PDF - File size 50K)
ABSTRACT The incinerator at the T.Z. Osborne Plant in Greensboro, North Carolina burns sludge from its own Waste Water Treatment Plant and sludge pumped from the nearby North Buffalo plant. The two plants have a combined capacity of 36 million gallons per day of wastewater. In 1992, the Osborne plant concluded a study evaluating its options for future municipal sewage sludge disposal. The ...

Waste Effluent Sludge Drying and Incineration
With the continuous advancement of urbanization, the effectiveness of sewage treatment plants in treating sewage has increased year by year, but the amount of sewage treatment has also continued to increase, resulting in an upward trend in the amount of remaining sludge. The sludge produced after wastewater treatment contains some toxic substances that are not easily degraded, heavy metals, etc., ...

What are the types of incinerators available?
Incineration is a viable alternative to Landfill. An incinerator can destroy and remove at least 99.99 percent of each harmful chemical in the waste it processes. When some extremely harmful chemicals are present, EPA requires that an incinerator show it can destroy and remove at least 99.9999 percent of contaminants in the waste. Ash remaining at the bottom of the combustion chambers likely ...

Animal & Agricultural Incinerators
Animal incinerators have a wide range of applications in businesses requiring carcass disposal and can be an effective bio-security measure for poultry, pig and sheep farms as well as veterinary practices, test centres, rendering plants, hunt kennels, zoos and pet cremation businesses. The animal incinerators’ robust design and ease of operation mean that they can be in use for many years ...
