Abstract
A 1 tonne day-1 medical incinerator that meets the new national emission standards for PCDD/F of less than 0.1 ng TEQm-3 was installed in Eger, Hungary in January 1994. The unit is batch operated and is charged once or twice a day. It has an intermediate dust control filter between a pyrolysis chamber and an afterburner. Dry lime is inserted before this filter. Two polishing filters using zeolite and coke, respectively, follow a waste heat boiler. © 1996 ISWAKeywords
