Summary

The course deals with physical and chemical basics of thermochemical conversion of waste, necessary machinery, legislation framework of incinerators and waste disposal facilities. Next, the students will learn about effective utilization of all types of fuel, especially secondary energy sources represented by combustible industrial waste, agricultural and municipal waste.
