Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

It is anticipated that 25 to 50 on site hazardous waste incinerators with energy recovery systems will be installed at chemical plants by 1990. Properly designed systems will give the owners several benefits: Elimination of hazardous wastes in compliance with RCRA guidelines; Complete control of hazardous waste disposal (do not have to rely on outside vendors); New source of fuel for plant's energy requirements; Attractive return on capital.
