dc.descriptionTo minimize the pollution from municipal solid waste incinerators, the study of operating conditions is imperative. The local design incinerators can be used for high performance combustion and minimize pollutions. The incinerator located at Bagamoyo hospital in Tanzania is used as a pilot for this experiment. The emission and operating conditions shows that the performance of incinerator is at maximum peak of about 70% when the oxygen at exit is about 6.9% and when secondary temperature is between 1073 and 1173K and primary temperature maintained at 673K. The experiment shows that when the primary chamber temperature increases beyond 673K, the secondary temperature decreases this is due to complete combustion at primary chamber which will cause insufficient incomplete gases and therefore limited combustible gases to burn.
