Abstract
The interest of incineration, which is one of the effective methods for municipal waste disposal, has gradually increased because the incineration could reduce the volume and weight of the waste, and produce useful energy from the waste. This study has developed the 3-dimensional numerical model, and applied for the investigation of combustion characteristics and optimized operating conditions in MSW incinerator in Gwangju. The model developed in this study has been verified through the comparison between the predicted and the measured temperature in combustion chamber which is operating. By predictive results, the Sangmoo incinerator has a good characteristics of combustion efficiency and a low emission by the second burning in the main flame zone, even though after burning zone produces incomplete products by which primary air is introduced not enough.
