Abstract
An incinerator including a wet slag remover for discharging combustion residues that includes a tank configured to provide a water bath having a water surface adapted to receive the combustion residues. A heat insulation layer is configured to float on the water surface. The heat insulation layer includes a plurality floating bodies that are movable relative to one another.
Claims18
1-16. (canceled)
An incinerator comprising a wet slag remover for discharging combustion residues, the wet slag remover comprising:
- a tank configured to provide a water bath with a water surface adapted to receive the combustion residues;
- and
- a heat insulation layer configured to float on the water surface, the heat insulation layer including a plurality floating bodies that are movable relative to one another.
A method of discharging combustion materials from an incinerator into a wet slag remover, the method comprising:
- providing an incinerator including a wet slag remover including a tank providing a water bath having a water surface adapted to receive combustion residues;
- providing a plurality of floating bodies on the water surface so as to form a heat insulation layer on the water surface, the floating bodies being movable relative to one another;
- burning solids so as to form the combustion residues;
- discharging the combustion residues into the wet slag remover such that the combustion residues penetrate the heat insulation layer before entering the water bath.
