A method for detecting a dioxin emission concentration of a municipal solid waste incineration process based on multi-level feature selection. A grate furnace-based MSWI process is divided into a plurality of sub-processes. A correlation coefficient value, a mutual information value and a comprehensive evaluation value between each of original input features of the sub-processes and the DXN emission concentration are obtained, thereby obtaining first-level features. The first-level features are selected and statistically processed by adopting a GAPLS-based feature selection algorithm and according to redundancy between different features, thereby obtaining second-level features. Third-level features are obtained according to the first-level features and statistical results of the second-level features. A PLS algorithm-based DXN detection model is established based on model prediction performance and the third-level features. The obtained PLS algorithm-based DXN detection model is applied to detect the DXN emission concentration of the MSWI process.

A chemical recovery boilers is described in which the primary air system is reconfigured to provide aggressive charbed control and improved combustion in the lower furnace. The fewest number of primary air ports are used on two opposing walls to generate powerful air jets that penetrate across the boiler providing physical and thermal stability to the charbed while increasing the heat release and combustion stability in the lower furnace, increasing reduction efficiency, and lowering carryover and emissions. Various embodiments are described including operating strategies and multi-level black liquor injection.

A bio-fuel furnace for use in waste management, non-combustible particulate collection and useable energy production. The bio-fuel furnace includes a combustion unit, a particle separator, an airflow management system. The combustion unit includes a modular ceramic core of stacked cylindrical sections, which store thermal energy. The stacked core sections form an internal combustion chamber and an expansion chamber. The airflow management system regulates airflow through the combustion unit and the particle separator forcing super heated ambient air into the combustion unit and drawing exhaust air from the particle separator to precisely control both the combustion process and the storage of useable thermal energy. The airflow management system includes a series of preheat coils wrapped around the ceramic core, an inlet fan which forces ambient air through the coil into the combustion unit and an exhaust fan that draws exhaust air through the separator and from the combustion unit.

An incinerator has a spherical chamber body to define an incineration chamber and includes a port structure with an opening that provides access to the incineration chamber. A hatch is pivotably attached to the port structure to provide access to the opening or to close the opening in the port structure. An incendiary device support member located within the incineration chamber to hold an ignitable incendiary device. A flammable panel member is located within the incineration chamber and positioned over the incendiary device support member. The panel member supports IEDs, explosive devices or biological agents for incineration. When the ignitable incendiary device is ignited, thermal energy is produced to incinerate the IEDs, explosive devices or biological agents positioned on the panel member.

An apparatus is provided that receives waste and generates electrical power or thermal energy with minimal NOx emissions. A gasifier is provided that receives the waste and air to produce fuel gas for delivery to a fluidly coupled reformer. The reformer receives the fuel gas, recycled flue gas, and air to auto-thermally produce a reformed fuel gas and destroy fuel gas pollutants at a first temperature without a catalyst. A burner is fluidly coupled to the reformer and receives recycled flue gas and air to oxidize the reformed fuel gas at a second temperature that prevents nitrogen oxide formation, the second temperature being lower than the first temperature. A quench chamber is fluidly coupled to the burner and receives flue gas from the burner for quenching with recycled flue gas. A heat recovery system is fluidly coupled to the reformer, burner, and quench chamber to extract usable energy.
