Incineration Technology for Municipal and Industrial Waste Described by Way of Executed Projects

Inerting and hygienisation of domestic refuse and similar waste materials by means of thermal treatment has a long history. The first plant of this kind on the European continent, for example, became operative in Hamburg in 1896. Since that time the technology has progressed considerably, based on advances in manufacturing and materials. Substantial contributions to this development were delivered by the firms of L & C Steinmüller, Deutsche Babcock Anlagen and Noell KRC, our predecessor companies. Figure 1 is showing a drawing from year 1936 on which a moving grate with combustion chamber and the lower part of the radiation pass are illustrated. The photograph affords a look into a typical design and drawing office at that time.

Combustion and boiler engineering have been improved enormously, especially during the past 15 to 20 years, based on growing knowledge, increased requirements and improved production possibilities. The following is a description of the current state of the art and technology.

Die innerstaatliche Umsetzung des Pariser Klimaschutzübereinkommens - ein Rechtsvergleich

Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
