SPECIFICATIONS OF A DIESEL FIRED INCINERATOR |
1.0 INCINERATOR, DIESEL, FIRED.
|
Specifications |
Indicate if item offered complies with each specification. |
1.1 |
General description |
|
The incinerator should be a modern waste disposal unit, designed to bum medical waste in a clean and environmentally efficient manner. It should employ a temperature based logic control system to provide optimum control of the operating conditions and incorporate a high capacity thermal oxidizing secondary chamber. It should be designed to retain the exhaust gases, for at least 2 seconds to ensure the unit’s effective destruction of the combustion products. |

Equipment |
2.1 |
Primary Combustion Chamber |
|
The primary combustion chamber is the main structure of the incinerator, fabricated from mild steel plate and stiffened with rolled steel sections. It is carried from the floor level on a substantial steel support frame. Internally the shell is lined with calcium silicate insulation and a hot face combination of super duty brickwork or high strength castable. |
|
The primary combustion chamber must ensure minimum exit temperature is not less than 850°C. |
|
One Manual Load Incinerator comprising: |
|
· Manual Loading door |
|
· Horizontal solid hearth, refractory lined primary combustion chamber. Approximate dimensions 800 mm diameters x 2100mm long |
|
· Full sized bulk load/ash removal door |
|
· 1 off diesel-fired ignition burner — temperature controlled |
|
· 1 off combustion air supply fan and distribution system, automatic control |
|
· High capacity secondary combustion chamber with residence time not less than 2 seconds @ >850°C |
|
· 1 off diesel-fired afterburner — temperature controlled |
|
· Control panel — automatic operation |
|
e Temperature indication primary and secondary chambers 0-1200°C |
|
e Refractory lined flanged chimney to a height of 10M above ground level |
|
Note: The secondary combustion chamber must ensure that the gas temperature as measured against the inside wall in the secondary chamber & not in the flame zone, is not less than 1100°C. |
|
2.2 |
Throughput |
|
50kg/hour at a nominal calorific value of 4,000 kcal/kg and an average bulk density of I20kg/ M3 for general waste and l60kg/ M3 for health care waste. |
|
