| Abstract: | A comprehensive incinerator air pollution control testing program was recently completed in New York City, and the results contain valuable particulate and gas sampling data. The information, which was obtained from a large number of test runs, is especially valuable since there is a shortage of reliable, valid test data of this nature. Since the test data now presented involved 1000 ton/day incinerators, which operate 24 hr/day, 6 days/wk, it is significant design criteria for consideration when upgrading a large incinerator or building a new one. The tests also provide information concerning the nature and concentration of gaseous constituents in the incinerator stack effluent. |
