To give the basic elements that will make the mass balance / energy for the design of thermal recovery processes fuel and / or waste.
For this, first one defines the characteristics of the resource value from the standpoint of its energy content and its polluting potential, so as to perform the sizing of the different speakers constituting the process: primary and secondary combustion chamber, boiler / recovery cycle of energy production, and processing of flue gases.
We also give in this course, developments in these thermal processes, in response to the problem of CO2 capture and energy efficiency improvements.
