26.4.1.2.4 Lower Particulate Emissions
Lower particulate emissions can result when an exist-
ing air/fuel incineration process is enhanced with oxy-
gen. Because of the large reduction in ue gas volume,
the gas velocity through the incinerator is reduced. This
tends to reduce the amount of solid particles that are
entrained by the gas ow through the incinerator (see
Figure 13.32). Therefore, there will usually be a sub-
stantial reduction in the particulate emissions from the
incinerator. This benet is particularly important where
a high-ash waste is being processed. The quantity of y
ash that is produced is generally reduced. This decreases
the load on the particulate removal system, which might
consist of an electrostatic ...
