Municipal Waste Incinerator Public Works Center, Yokosuka Japan Evaluation and Recommendations

Abstract

A study done on the Municipal Waste Incinerator (MWI) located at the Public Work Center (PWC) Yokosuka, Japan. The facility consists of two incinerators with combustion capabilities of 3.54 ton (3.22 metric tons) per hour, each equipped with a quencher and a venturi tube where Ca(OH)2 and Tesisorb are injected to remove HCl and SO2 from the gas stream, and a fabric filter to remove particulate matter.
