Abstract
Abstract Experiments were carried out on the gasification‐combustion of organic solid wastes to determine the effect of process parameters on the contaminants emissions. Solid municipal waste and wood waste material were gasified under reactive environments in a stirred reactor. The important parameters were found to be temperature, residence time, and moisture content of the fuel. With increasing temperature, the amount of particulate matter, smoke, and hydrocarbon emissions decreased. It was found as the temperature exceeded 800° C, the discharge of air pollutants from the combustion of waste material was drastically reduced. The results was then used to determine the pollution burden of applying incineration as a mean of Tehran municipal waste disposa1.
