Abstract

A basket for incinerating waste inside an incinerator for a duration longer than fifteen minutes with no need for waste to be molten earlier, particularly when waste is introduced inside the incinerator. The basket includes mainly of a glass fiber envelope: it is preferably stiffened by a lightweight metal structure located inside or outside the envelope or built into it. A gripping handle is installed on top of the assembly that is stiffened at the top by a metal tube to which a lightweight metal structure is fixed and by a base formed from a drip pan fixed to the base of the lightweight metal structure.

Claims (8)

1. Method for incinerating waste in a waste vitrification incinerator, the method including steps of:

placing the waste to be incinerated in a support basket of waste to be inserted into and incinerated in the incinerator, the support basket comprising an envelope made of at least a coating of glass fibre stiffened by a lightweight metal structure, the envelope being woven with a mesh size defining a porosity adapted for:

maintaining the waste in the basket during introducing the basket into the incinerator,

controlling thermochemically the speed of the pyrolysis of the waste, particularly the progressive rising of the temperature of the waste until the entire incineration of the waste in the basket, and

filtering the pyrolysis gas,

wherein the support basket and the waste are disposed in a gas atmosphere, above a molten glass bath, and

performing a pyrolysis and a combustion, confining toxic particles in the basket for a duration longer than a pyrolysis and combustion of waste without a basket so that complete combustion can be achieved.

2. Method according to claim 1 , wherein after complete combustion of the waste, the glass fibre basket containing waste combustion residues is dissolved in the molten glass bath.
