What is Incinerator ?
Incineration is a method of waste treatment involving the burning of organic materials found in waste. Incineration and other high-temperature waste management processes are called “thermal treatment.”
Particularly, it involves converting waste materials into ash, flue gas, and heat. The ash mostly consists of inorganic components of waste and can be in the shape of solid lumps or particulates carried by the flue gas. The flue gases are supposed to be cleaned of particulate and gaseous contaminants before being released into the air. Sometimes, the heat generated is used in useful ways, like in producing electricity.
In comparison to other air pollution control devices, scrubbers are very multidisciplinary, with the ability to remove solids, mists, and C02 simultaneously while also providing cooling. They are also capable of handling explosive and flammable gases safely. However, scrubbers produce slurry wastewater streams which are less convenient for recycling and disposal.
Incineration plants can reduce the mass of waste from 95% to 96%. The decrease in waste is determined by the recovery level and decomposition of substances. Even though incineration does not substitute the need for landfills, it has been able to reduce the quantity of waste in landfills.
Incineration has numerous benefits, especially in terms of destroying contaminant medical wastes and other life-risking garbage. Also, incineration largely utilizes waste-to-energy technology. In Japan, for example, thermal treatment is very popular since they have a shortage of land. Plus, the energy produced by incineration plants is in high demand in nations such as Sweden and Denmark. However, incinerators also have their downside.

What is scrubber ?
Water Scrubbing for Removal of CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) in Smoke. Scrubbers are air pollution control devices that use liquid to remove particulate matter or gases from an industrial exhaust or flue gas stream. This atomized liquid ( water) entrains particles and pollutant gases in order to effectively wash them out of the gas flow.

Purifying incinerator from CO2 (carbon dioxide) needs to be done to improve the quality of the incinerator in the fuel. The presence of co2 in incinerator can cause corrosive to the equipment, in addition to this,Concentrated smoke From Incinerator Are dangerous for Nature. CO2 contained in Incinerator is also an impurity that can cause corrosive beside H2S so the contained in incinerator is also an impurity that can cause corrosive, so the purification process needs to be done in order to qualify incinerator as natural gas which environmentally friendly and safe for health. The basic ingredient of incinerator purification using water scrubbers base ingredients are water, which flowed pressurized incinerator purification column from the bottom, of the column in order to reduce CO2 and H2S gases.
Methodology
Purification column of incinerator has a diameter of 1.5 and column height of 2.0 m, at top of it is the nozzle which is used as a circulating water from the water tank located at the bottom of the purification column. In addition to nozzle the tower equipped with a tray shaped like a sieve trap, where interaction between water with incinerator derived from the bottom of the column occurred. Here is the schematic tool scrubber water purification.
The water scrubbers is equipped with a nozzle from with the water comes after flow through the pipe, while the trays serve as a place of interaction between trapped incinerator with water so that the longer the contact happened, more acid gas will be reduced.
Advantages of Waste Incineration
01
Decreases Quantity of Waste
Incinerators can decrease the quantity of waste by 95% and reduce the solid quantity of the original waste by 80-85% depending on the components that were in solid waste. Therefore incineration reduces the dependency on landfills. Hence, even though incinerators do not completely get rid of dumping ground, they definitely decrease the quantity of land needed. For nations that are small in size and with a shortage of land like Japan, this is noteworthy since landfills take up large amounts of land required for other productive uses.
02
Efficient Waste Management
Incineration plays a vital role in making waste management easier and more efficient. Incineration can burn up to 90% of the total waste generated and sometimes even more. However, landfills only allow organic decomposition without making much difference, and non-organic waste keeps accumulating.
03
Production of Heat and Power
Incineration plants generate energy from waste that can be used to generate electricity or heat. During the 1950s, energy costs increased considerably. Revoltech International: So a lot of countries incorporated the heat and energy produced from waste incinerators for the generation of power by using steam turbines. It can be used to power the needs of people living nearby.
Revoltech International: On average, a single facility can burn up to 300 million tons of garbage every year, converting it into power and, at the same time, reducing the load on coal-fired power plants, which of course, are a disaster for the environment.
Moreover, Europe and Japan have now integrated incinerators into modern heating systems. For example, Sweden generates 8% of its heating needs from waste incinerators. Furthermore, other countries that have cold weather utilize the heat from the incinerators for warming their homes and places of work in areas near the plant.
04
Reduction of Pollution
Research has shown that solid waste incinerators are less likely to pollute the environment than landfills. One particular study done during a 1994 lawsuit in the US showed that a waste incinerator location was more environment-friendly compared to a landfill. The research discovered that the landfill was releasing higher quantities of greenhouse gases, nitrogen oxides, dioxin, hydrocarbons, and non-methane organic compounds. Landfills also leach poisonous chemicals into the water below, thus contaminating underground water systems.

05
Incinerators Have Filters For Trapping Pollutants
The main problem concerning the incineration of solid waste was the release of hazardous compounds, particularly dioxin. Nonetheless, up to date incinerator plants use filters to trap hazardous gases and particulate dioxin. The current incineration plants operate within the required pollution limits recommended by the Environmental Protection Agency and international protocols.
Moreover, Europe and Japan have now integrated incinerators into modern heating systems. For example, Sweden generates 8% of its heating needs from waste incinerators. Furthermore, other countries that have cold weather utilize the heat from the incinerators for warming their homes and places of work in areas near the plant.
06
Saves on Transportation of Waste
Incineration plants can be near cities or towns. This is advantageous since it means waste does not have to be driven for long distances for dumping. It significantly reduces the cost of transport; the money can then be spent on the wellbeing of the community and sustaining the growth of a city or district. Additionally, it reduces the harmful gases released by vehicles during transportation, thus drastically reducing the overall carbon footprint.

Furthermore, other countries that have cold weather utilize the heat from the incinerators for warming their homes and places of work in areas near the plant.
07
Provides Better Control Over Odor and Noise
Incineration plants can provide less bad smells because waste gets burnt, unlike landfills, where waste is allowed to decay, thereby emitting unpleasant smells, which cause air pollution. The production of methane in landfills may also lead to explosions that cause noise pollution, which is unheard of when it comes to the use of incineration plants.

08
Prevents the Production of Methane Gas
In landfills, when the waste is decaying, methane gas is generated which, if not controlled, may explode, causing further global warming. Unlike landfills, incineration plants do not produce methane, therefore making them safer.
09
Eliminates Harmful Germs and Chemicals
Incineration plants function at very high temperatures that can destroy germs and chemicals that are harmful. Thus, it is a very effective method when it comes to eliminating clinical waste.
10
Incinerators Operate in Any Weather
Another advantage of incinerators is that they can function in any type of weather. For instance, during a rainy season, waste cannot be dumped in a landfill because the rain will possibly wash down poisonous chemicals into the ground and consequently create leachate, thus contaminating the underground water as well as the neighboring land.
Waste can also not be dumped when it is windy since it will get blown into the surroundings. On the other hand, incinerators are not limited to weather changes since they burn waste without leakages. Incineration plants also function 24 hours a day and are more efficient in managing waste compared to landfills.
11
Effective Metal Recycling
When incinerators are burning waste, the metals still remain whole because they have a high melting point. After the process of burning waste is done, the workers remove the remaining metal and recycle it. This eliminates the need for separating any metal before waste disposal. When garbage is taken to a landfill, it is usually not organized, which results in wasting of resources that could have been recycled. Therefore, using an incinerator makes it easier to remove and reuse metals.
Moreover, Europe and Japan have now integrated incinerators into modern heating systems. For example, Sweden generates 8% of its heating needs from waste incinerators. Furthermore, other countries that have cold weather utilize the heat from the incinerators for warming their homes and places of work in areas near the plant.
12
It has a Computerized Monitoring System
Governments, cities, institutions, or private waste management companies can purchase an incinerator that comes with a computer device to allow for the troubleshooting of most problems. This will enable operators to discover a problem before it becomes more serious and much more expensive to repair. A computer will also make operators work easily as they will be able to track the operational efficiency of the incinerator plant.

13
Uses of Ash
The ash that comes from the combustion of waste can be used in construction, get shipped or even landfilled. Shipping of ash is cheaper than transporting of unburned trash; it will also reduce liability issues.
14
Occupies Relatively Small Space
Incineration systems occupy relatively small space. Therefore these are a convenient and practical solution for managing waste.
15
Uncontaminated Groundwater
Every time precipitation falls on landfills, a thick slurry of liquid garbage like pea-soup is formed called leachate. This contaminated mixture can penetrate underground aquifers and add pollutants such as unsafe quantities of salts, heavy metals and volatile organic compounds, also other toxic or corrosive chemicals or substances found in household trash.
Unlike landfills, incineration doesn’t add any toxic elements to the groundwater. Also, it helps prevent leakage of chemicals from landfills into the environment, and the soil getting averted.
