Thermische Behandlung von Sonderabf?llen

Thermal treatment of special wastes. The incineration of waste is a proven process with known ecological consequences and is economically viable especially for large scale plant. The original ambitious objectives of the pyrolytic process have been considerably revised after the developments in this area failed to live up to many expectations or were found to be economically non-viable. The combustion of chlorinated hydrocarbons on the high seas is ecologically safe. The processes discussed in this paper demonstrate that the development of thermal processes for the treatment of industrial wastes is by no means complete. This also applies to numerous other processes not discussed here.
