Abstract
Currently, about 2,500 tonnes out of a total generation of 6,500 tonnes refuse are processed daily at the four Government Incineration Plants and small village-type incinerators. Various modifications have been or will be carried out on the existing old plants to improve gas emission and to increase the throughput capacities. This paper gives comprehensive data on the successful operation of the new Kwai Chung Plant which proves that mass incineration of ‘as-received’ municipal refuse is a viable method of disposal by comparison with other available methods. Furthermore, the end-product of incineration is sterile, suitable for land reclamation and can be used as a covering material in controlled tips.
