      Hello. I am in this business. Read this please: By pure combustion the toxins are not bound and what about CO2? Both can be captured with high tech filters. But what happens with the filters that are highly toxic after use? It is hazardous waste, where to put it? Rain and wind will gradually wash the toxins out of the earth and release them into the air and water.
      Singapore is without doubt a pioneer in environmental protection, but there are better solutions. For example, our plants that produce pellets from waste that are free of toxins and emit 70% less CO2.

    Because general rubbish often contains various low-grade plastics, waste incineration produces a lot of thick, black smoke that contains all sorts of toxic fumes. When the fumes are cleaned up, you get an extremely toxic sludge that must be disposed of in designated hazardous waste landfills. With no such landfills in Singapore, what do they do with their air pollution control residue?

    • @hengkengyan8615
      @hengkengyan8615 2 года назад

      When incinerator burn the rubbish directly, it will produce dioxin and furan. As incineration is done under oxygen rich condition.
      The only way to change dixion and furan is by secondary burning zone to raise the temperature even higher at 1200-1500°C.
      Best of all, dioxin and furan can be produced and can't be destroyed.
      The flue gas needs to be cooled down before released to the atmosphere, usually a waste heat boiler will be installed and generate high pressure steam to run generators.
