Thermal waste treatment refers to the processes that use heat to treat waste materials. Thermal methods for waste management aim at the reduction of the waste volume, the conversion of waste into harmless materials and the utilization of the energy that is hidden within waste as heat, steam, electrical energy or combustible material. They include all processes converting the waste content into gas, liquid and solid products with simultaneous or consequent release of thermal energy. Thermal methods for solid waste management include: Gasification, Pyrolysis, Plasma and Incineration. This Technology Zones offers an insight into the latest innovations in thermal waste processing technology.
Mobile incinerators are becoming a vital part of waste management for operations in remote locations. In hard to reach locations where resources are scarce, mobile incinerators offer an efficient waste management solution, removing the need to rely on other resources such as waste collection.
Read moreIncineration is a method of waste disposal where intense high temperatures are used to burn material to the point of combustion. This process is also known as thermal treatment. Knowing how to work your incinerator properly is essential for a successful waste management plan.

SPITTAL/DRAU – One of the most pressing recent issues in the mechanical processing and conversion of waste into solid recovered fuels (SRF) is the high fire risk. This is largely due to a constantly increasing number of lithium batteries in the general waste collection. If damaged, a chemical reaction is often initiated, which leads to incredibly high temperatures.

Read moreBARCELONA – We can define hazardous waste as unwanted or unusable materials that are dangerous or potentially harmful to the health of humans and the environment. Hazardous waste can come in various forms (liquid, solid, gas, sludge), and it must be handled very carefully due to its destructive and dangerous nature.
Read moreWe’ve put together a helpful list of typical terms that are commonly used in waste disposal. They are each important to an effective incineration process. Calorific Value of waste Any type of substance that contains energy has a calorific value. Waste can be burned, because the incineration process harnesses that energy stored within it. Calorific […]
Read moreWhilst being producers of some of the world’s most expensive materials, waste management has rarely been a concern of the mining sector until recent years, with many companies opting to either export waste off-site or burn out in the open.
Read moreIn the United Kingdom it is becoming increasingly expensive to dispose of non-hazardous waste, the cost of landfill has been rising and the figures are showing no signs of slowing down, the same of which can be said for RDF A.K.A. Refuse Derived Fuel. RDF starts off its life as municipal waste which is then cleaned and processed to remove metals, recyclables, non-flammable materials to leave mostly plastics, paper, cardboard and wood.
Read moreAt Inciner8, we’re constantly striving for new, innovative solutions to support waste disposal. Waste To Energy is one of those areas where we are leading the way. We’re in the final stages of our first UK waste to energy plant, providing a new, efficient method of processing and disposal for a traditional waste collection company in Southport. And we wanted to show you how your business might benefit too. Could waste to energy incineration be the solution you need?
