Method for increasing the throughput of packages in rotary tubular kiln apparatus

In a method for increasing the throughput of packages of waste material of a high caloric value of rotary kiln plants which include a rotary tube with a combustion chamber and a post combustion chamber to which the combustion gases from the rotary tube are supplied and which includes at least one burner supplied by gas from a gas supply, the waste packages are supplied to the rotary tube and burned therein with oxygen containing gas and the combustion gas flows to the post combustion chamber for post combustion, the combustion process being continuously monitored in the kiln and the post combustion chamber and controlled by adjustment of the combustion conditions in the kiln and the post combustion chamber.
