Thermal Oxidation

As land becomes more scarce and sludge handling regulations grow more stringent, fluid bed incineration is becoming widely accepted for sludge disposal.In a fluid bed incinerator, water is evaporated and organic materials are combusted, eliminating odors and reducing the sludge to a much smaller quantity of inert ash (as low as 7% by weight). Land requirements and air pollution are reduced, protecting the environment. It is highly efficient and can generate useful heat for the production of process steam or electricity.Thermylis is a high-performance, odourless, energy-efficient solution that emits low levels of gaseous waste for transforming sludge into a harmless and potentially re-usable product.
