Page 24 - Wastewater Solids Incineration Systems

Preface

Information from Incineration (MOP OM-11), published in 1988, and Sludge Incinera-
tion: Thermal Destruction of Residues (MOP FD-19), published in 1992, was revised and
combined to create Wastewater Solids Incineration Systems (MOP 30). This manual is a
comprehensive guide to the safety, permitting, design, operation, and maintenance
of the incineration, or thermal oxidation, process and includes new sections about
safety, permitting, and instrument and control systems. The combustion theory and
technology sections have been updated and case studies of recent new and updated
facilities are presented. Sections on heat recovery and reuse, emission control and
monitoring, and ash handling and recycling have been expanded and upgraded.
This Manual of Practice was produced under the direction of James E. Welp, P.E.,
Chair. The principal authors of this Manual of Practice are as follows:
