Industrial Waste Incineration

Industrial Waste Incineration Systems

Wastes generated from industrial operations—such as factories, refineries, and processing plants—can be safely destroyed using advanced incinerator systems.

Hazardous wastes can be in the form of:

  • Liquid
  • Solid
  • Gas
  • Sludge

They may consist of discarded commercial products (e.g., cleaning fluids, pesticides) or by-products of manufacturing processes. To ensure their safe destruction, SANTES designs and manufactures tailor-made incineration systems in a wide range of capacities.

Key Features:
  • Tailor-made design customized for specific waste streams
  • Rotary kiln application for larger capacities and continuous 24-hour operation
  • Special liquid waste injection system for superior efficiency
  • 1,000 °C primary combustion chamber
  • 1,100 °C secondary (post-combustion) chamber
  • Minimum 2 seconds residence time
  • Designed in compliance with EPA, EU Directive 2000/76/EC (or 2010/75/EU), and local standards
  • Waste-to-Energy capability: incineration combined with energy recovery
  • Energy recovery & power generation: heat can be used as hot water, oil, air, or steam, and turned into electricity via ORC or turbines.
  • Starved-air incineration method available when required
  • Fully automated PLC-based control system minimizing risks and ensuring easy maintenance
  • High combustion efficiency (up to 99.99% for organics)
  • Integrated multi-pollutant flue gas treatment systems (dry or wet scrubbers)
  • Suitable for a wide variety of hazardous wastes from different industries
  • Capable of treating wastes with high moisture content
  • Produces clean ash in minimal quantities, depending on the waste type
  • Optional automatic loading and ash removal systems
