Incineration
A treatment technology involving destruction of waste by controlled burning at high temperatures; e.g.
Incineration
the controlled burning of municipal, clinical and chemical waste material and sewage sludge, commonly in two stages, to produce minimum amounts of gas and ash ...
incineration Burning combustible organic materials to remove the water and reduce the remaining residues to a safe, non-burnable ash. The ash can then be disposed of safely.
Incineration
Combustion (by chemical oxidation) of waste material to treat or dispose of that waste material
ISO 14001 ...
Incineration
controlled burning of rubbish to make it smaller, kill germs or to get rid of harmful chemicals. See also energy from waste
Industrial battery ...
Incineration - the burning of household or industrial waste in a combustion chamber
Inert Gas - a gas such as helium, neon, or argon that does not react with other substances under ordinary conditions ...
incineration
the combustion of organic matter in wastewater sludge solids after water evaporation from the solids.

Incineration: The act of burning a material to ashes.
Indirect Source: Any facility, building, structure, or installation, or combination thereof, ...
incineration : The destruction of solid, liquid, or gaseous wastes by controlled burning at high temperatures.Hazardous organic compounds are converted to ash, carbon dioxide, and water.
I Incineration Directive
Definition (english only)
Directive 2000/76/EC on the incineration of waste.
WASTE TO ENERGY INCINERATION An alternative process to reduction or recovery of recyclable materials which are not currently economical.
Disposal may be accomplished through use of approved secure landfills, surface impoundments, land farming, deep-well injection, ocean dumping or incineration.
A group of generally toxic organic compounds that may be formed as a result of incomplete combustion (as may occur in incineration of compounds containing chlorine).
ash - incombustible residue left over after incineration or other thermal processes.
asthma - a condition marked by labored breathing, constriction of the chest, coughing and gasping usually brought on by allergies.
waste activities = solid waste disposal on land, waste water handling, waste incineration, other
waste emissions = emissions from solid waste disposal on land, wastewater, waste incineration and any other waste management activity ...
Commonly used system that relies on high pressure to prepare liquid wastes for incineration by breaking them up into tiny droplets to allow easier combustion.

Residue: materials remaining after processing, incineration, composting, or recycling have been completed; normally disposed of in landfills.
However, recycling becomes relatively cheaper when externalities associated with raw material extraction and landfill (or incineration) are included, especially environmental and health effects.
Though these compounds have relatively low vapor pressures and poor solubility in water, they cycle from aquatic environments--where they have been deposited from waste incineration, wood burning, pulp bleaching, smelting, etc.
Liquid Injection Incinerator: Commonly used system that relies on high pressure to prepare liquid wastes for incineration by breaking them up into tiny droplets to allow easier combustion.
Thermal Treatment: Use of elevated temperatures to treat hazardous wastes. (See: incineration; pyrolysis.) ...
Diversion Rate- The percentage of waste materials diverted from traditional disposal such as landfilling or incineration to be recycled, composted, or re-used.
Integrated Waste Management- A solid waste management strategy that utilizes more than one of the following: source reduction and reuse, recycling, waste-to-energy incineration, and landfill disposal.
Integrated Waste Management uses a variety of practices to handle municipal solid waste and can include source reduction, recycling, incineration, and landfilling.
and drums containing hazardous materials from removal actions or accidental releases. Disposal may be accomplished through use of approved secure landfills, surface impoundments, land farming, deep-well injection, ocean dumping, or incineration.
