Sludge incinerator is beneficial to mitigate environmental pressure
Sludge from incinerator has higher calorific value, so sludge is generally not digested. When the sludge does not meet the hygienic requirements, the content of toxic substances is high, it can not be used as a agricultural and sideline use, or the burning calorific value of the sludge itself is high. When the sludge can be spontaneous combustion and can be used to generate electricity from ...

Process system of sludge incinerator
Sludge incinerator is a common sludge disposal method, which can destroy all organic matter, kill all pathogens, and minimize the volume of sludge. The sludge with a relative water content of about 75% is only 10% of the original volume. When the burning calorific value of the sludge is high, the demand for urban sanitation is higher, or the content of toxic substances in the sludge is high. ...

Working principle of sludge incinerator
The working principle of sludge incinerator: batch feeder puts the sludge of intermittent feeding door into the converter and opens the combustion by automatic temperature control. According to the principle of combustion three t (temperature, time and swirl), the combustion chamber is completely oxidized, pyrolyzed and burned in the combustion chamber of the furnace. The flue gas after burning ...
