ABSTRACT
In earlier chapters, critical fuel-engine interface aspects of important combustion driven heat/power technologies were considered. In this last chapter, attention will be given to fuel-engine issues related to methods and machines being utilized and under development for thermally destructing various waste forms that are generated and discarded in today’s industrial societies. Thermal destruction technologies are receiving greater attention now that more emphasis is being placed on the environmentally acceptable disposal of items such as municipal solid waste, by-products from manufactured goods, and hazardous materials.
