The method and apparatus have low nitrogen oxides amounts, satisfy environmental protection requirements, and do not require denitrification treatment. The method comprises the following steps: feeding a biomass raw material into a gasification apparatus to prepare a medium calorific value biomass combustible gas, and performing gasification on the biomass raw material at 700-850° C. under the effect of an air/water vapour pre-mixed gasification agent to produce a combustible gas, the calorific value of the combustible gas being 1600-1800 kcal, the temperature being 200-300° C.; directly feeding the combustible gas into an environmentally friendly combustion chamber for combustion, and then into a high-temperature high-pressure boiler, the gas combusting within the high-temperature high-pressure boiler to produce high-temperature high-pressure steam, which drives a steam turbine to generate electricity; utilising steam waste heat discharged by the steam turbine; using boiler tail gas to heat air by means of an air preheater, the hot air being respectively fed into the combustion chamber and the gasification apparatus by means of an air blower, and utilising the waste heat.

Provided is a waste water incineration method including (S10) supplying waste water to an evaporator to evaporate the waste water, (S20) supplying an evaporator top discharge stream discharged from the evaporator to an incinerator to incinerate the discharge stream, (S30) mixing a first incinerator discharge stream and a second incinerator discharge stream discharged from the incinerator to form a mixed discharge stream, and (S40) heat-exchanging the mixed discharge stream and a fresh air stream in a first heat exchanger, wherein the mixed discharge stream which has passed through the first heat exchanger is heat-exchanged in a second heat exchanger and discharged to the atmosphere.

Disclosed is a heat storage type waste gas purification apparatus which comprises: a combustion chamber configured to combust and decompose a component contained in waste gas; a plurality of heat storage chambers each having one end communicating with the combustion chamber and each comprising a heat storage body; a plurality of supply inlets each equipped with an on-off valve and each provided at the other end of a respective one of the heat storage chambers to selectively supply waste gas thereto; a plurality of discharge outlets each equipped with an on-off valve and each provided at the other end of a respective one of the heat storage chambers to selectively discharge treated waste gas therefrom; a discharge passage connected to the discharge outlets to discharge the treated waste gas to an outside of the apparatus therethrough; a plurality of bypass passages each connecting between the combustion chamber and the discharge passage, wherein each of the bypass passages is connected to the combustion chamber at a position directly above a respective one of the heat storage chambers, and equipped with an on-off valve; and a control section operable, when a temperature of one of the heat storage chambers becomes equal to or greater than a given value, to open one or more of the on-off valves of the bypass passages so as to discharge a part of waste gas in the combustion chamber via the opened one or more bypass passages.

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.

A gas flare for burning waste gas comprises a stack with an upper chimney space, a lower combustion chamber, and a burner having one or more flame outlets positioned in the combustion chamber. A primary combustion air intake of the burner is in fluid communication with an ambient air intake to source primary combustion air therefrom. An airflow control device resides in a position operable to regulate secondary air flow from the ambient air intake to the flame outlet of the burner without obstructing the primary combustion air intake of said burner. The stack features a double hull design to preheat the ambient air as it travels to the burner, and a liquid containment/vaporization chamber is installed below the burner in heat exchange relationship with the preheated airflow path to the burner, whereby the chamber is warmed by the pre-heated combustion air and radiant heat from the combustion chamber.

The embodiments described relate to an expeditionary solid waste disposal system configured to improve logistics and enable it to be readily deployed. The two-stage gasification/oxidation process takes place in a dual chambered device that resembles and functions as a shipping container. Incinerators or other waste conversion devices are commonly containerized by loading the equipment into a standard or modified shipping container. This apparatus is designed as a waste conversion unit that integrates all of the necessary features required to be an ISO-certified shipping container within its structural design such that the waste conversion system and shipping container are one and the same. With correct set-up by 2 persons aided by forklift the system can be configured and operational in a matter of hours.

A method is provided for thermally processing waste to produce steam and generate energy while minimizing air pollutants in a staged thermal reactor. The method includes gasifying the waste to convert the waste to a fuel gas and a substantially carbon free, inert, granulated, sintered mineral ash and reforming the fuel gas auto-thermally to minimize creation of nitrogen oxide when the fuel gas is combusted. The method further includes burning the reformed fuel gas to minimize creation of nitrogen oxide in a flame region of a fuel gas burner and recirculating cooled flue gas to control oxygen content and temperature during the reforming operation and the burning operation. In one example, reforming the fuel gas converts non-molecular nitrogen species into molecular nitrogen in an auto-thermal non-catalytic reformer unit by decomposition reactions promoted by a prevailing reducing gas atmosphere.
