Title: Combustion and heat recovery of waste liquids containing inorganic salts

Journal Article · · Energy Dev. Jpn.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6726613

The authors built a prototype cyclone waste liquid incinerator and tested it for several kinds of process waste liquid. The results have shown that it is possible to collect more than 97% of the inorganic salts contained in the waste liquid within an incinerator. The amount of salt deposition on the heating pipe surfaces can be reduced to 1/30 or less of that in the spray combustion system, and efficient heat recovery from the flue gas is possible. 3 refs.
