Abstract:
A process for the environmentally safe disposal of used fluorescent lamp potted ballast assemblies and the like, with the potential for component part reclamation and/or recycling, involving preferred cryogenic freezing of the potted assembly to the extent that the frozen potting becomes sufficiently brittle throughout to enable it to be pulverized away in small particles, cleanly from all the components, with only that component with a hazardous material needing to be incinerated or otherwise environmentally safely disposed of, and with all the other components and parts in condition for salvage, re-use, and/or reclamation.
Abstract:
A method for thermal disposal of waste, comprising the steps of: receiving and amassing waste to be disposed of in a receiving and amassing section (2) of a disposal system (1); transferring said waste to be disposed of from said receiving and amassing section (2) into a burning section (3) for burning said waste; incinerating said waste in said burning section (3), said amassing including storing at least perishable waste at low temperature in container means (10) having means for controlling and lowering internal temperature.
Abstract:
A process for treating a human remains comprises the steps of subjecting the remains to pyrolysis in a pyrolysis chamber under conditions that convert the particulate material to biochar remains.
