Organic combustion is the thermal treatment of organic wastes with the intent of reducing mass and volume. This process is frequently seen in waste treatment plants in order to reduce the volume of organic wastes for deposit into landfill.
Organic combustion leaves behind an ash product of significantly less mass and volume. This process is most often carried out in a direct-fired rotary kiln, because contact between the burner flame and material is not a concern.
Rotary kilns are extremely flexible devices and can be used to process a multitude of materials. To learn more about the processes most commonly carried out in rotary kilns, contact a FEECO expert today!
