CHAPTER IIU.K.Operating conditions

3.Incineration or co-incineration plants must be designed, equipped, built and operated in such a way that the gas resulting from the process is raised in a controlled and homogeneous fashion, even under the most unfavourable conditions, to a temperature of 850 oC, as measured near the inner wall or at another representative point of the combustion chamber as authorised by the competent authority, for two seconds.U.K.

4.Each line of high-capacity incineration plants must be equipped with at least one auxiliary burner. This burner must be switched on automatically when the temperature of the combustion gases after the last injection of combustion air falls below 850 oC. It must also be used during plant start-up and shut-down operations to ensure that the temperature of 850 oC is maintained at all times during these operations and as long as unburned material is in the combustion chamber.U.K.

5.High-capacity incineration or co-incineration plants must have and operate an automatic system to prevent feed with animal by-products:U.K.

(a)

at start-up, until the temperature of 850 oC has been reached; and

(b)

whenever the temperature of 850 oC is not maintained.

6.Animal by-products should, where practicable, be placed straight in the furnace without direct handling.U.K.
