Abstract

Waste thermal treatment by incineration, co-incineration, gasification or pyrolysis aims at recovering the waste, mainly in the form of energy. In addition, it also serves to disposal of waste, in particular hazardous one, including medical and veterinary waste. Thermal treatment of waste should be carried out in specially adapted installations that meet the BAT requirements. The article discusses installations operating in Poland designed for thermal treatment of municipal solid waste, sewage sludge as well as hazardous waste, including medical and veterinary waste.
