3. Waste oxidation process

Thermal destruction of effluent or waste can be achieved by oxidation reactions between the waste material (gas, liquid or solid) and an oxidizing agent.

If the oxidation reactions take place in a gaseous thermophore, the oxidizing agent being air, oxygen or solid metal oxides, generally at atmospheric pressure, i.e. the water included or formed being vaporized, then we speak of combustion or incineration.
