Emissions Study of a Fairchild-Hiller Model 1150-300 Silver Reclamation Processor (Incinerator), Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio

Particulate emissions from a newly installed Fairchild-Hiller film Incinerator/Silver Reclamation Processor were determined to evaluate compliance with applicable emission standards. Evidence indicated that a large fraction of the particulate emissions may have been contributed by the refractory lining. Proper curing (operating the unit over a period of time) should eliminate emissions form the lining and eventually reduce total emissions to less than the required standard. (Author)
