Abstract

See full text

A system for disposing of solid waste which recovers a portion of the energy and materials value of the waste. The system includes a plurality of sealable containers for the solid waste, and a rotary kiln. An air cannon propels the containers into the vessel on a trajectory generally parallel to the axis of the vessel. The kiln is of the type including a cylindrical vessel containing materials to be processed therein. The vessel has first and second longitudinally opposite ends, and rotates about its longitudinal axis. A burner heats gases in the interior of the vessel for processing the material in the vessel. The temperature in the vessel progressively increases from the first end to the second end of the kiln.
