Incineration system computer programs are available for calculating incinerator system parameters including chamber temperature, fuel usage, air and gas flows. They also calculate design and operating parameters for equipment associated with incinerators including an afterburner, waste heat boiler, and a variety of scrubber systems. These programs are based on the techniques developed in the incinerator textbooks written by C. R. Brunner including INCINERATION SYSTEMS HANDBOOK and MEDICAL WASTE DISPOSAL, both published by INCINERATOR CONSULTANTS INCORPORATED in 1996.

Feed streams: Direct insertion of waste types (Type 0, Type 1, etc.), or unique waste constituents, including chlorine. Data from previous runs are saved for recall.

Similar to ICI04, in metric units.

These programs are completely self contained, for IBM/PC, and can be run on their own disk or transferred to a hard disk. They are all menu driven and include defaults and data checking features. Programs have been field tested and verified on actual systems and equipment. A comprehensive users manual is included as well as on-line technical support from ICI.


A demonstration disk (DEMO DISK) is available which illustrates the operation of each of these programs, including sample printouts. Take me to Free Downloads..
