The vendor states that MBS stabihzes heavy metals in soil, slndges, slag, ash, baghonse dnst, and sediment. Among the heavy metals treatable by the MBS process are arsenic, cad-minm, chrominm, copper, lead, mercnry, nickel, silver, and zinc. MBS technology is applicable in the following indnstries primary and secondary smelters, battery mannfactnrers and recyclers, ferrons and nonferrons fonndries, mnnicipal solid waste incinerators, anto and metal scrap recyclers, electronic mannfactnrers, electroplaters, ceramic prodnct mannfactnrers, and mineral refiners and processors.

In an attempt to reduce secondary pollution and protect the incinerators, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, since 1973, has been asking households to separate some items from ordinary wastes before they are put out for collection. The items to be separately collected include those which cannot be burned, such as metals, glass and ceramics, and those which should not be burned, such as plastics, rubber, hides and leather. These items are buried in reclaimed lands, unprocessed. 

The catalytic activity of the SHS ceramic catalysts in the processes of incineration was found to be virtually identical to that of widespread precious metal catalysts. The ceramic catalysts prepared by promising SHS technique may be a challenge to conventional catalysts for purification of engine exhaust and other waste gases. 

Refractories made using aluminas are used in the iron and steel, chemical and petroleum, ceramics and glass manufacture, minerals processing (cement, lime, etc), pubHc utflities, waste incineration, and power generation industries. 

Components in the furnace chamber of thermal incineration installations require an extreme mechanical, thermal and corrosive resistance, particularly if problematic waste is burned. Moving firing grates made of C/SiC with a high ceramic content, which simultaneously have a forward feed of the material to be burned are already in operation in incineration installations [23], These C/SiC components are designed as hollow bodies, so that additional air can be introduced via holes, thus achieving an optimization of the incineration.

The ceramic material consumed by the general public in the greatest quantities is glass, in the form of containers. Glass is a relatively inert material and, as such, does not decompose thus, it is not biodegradable. A significant proportion of municipal landfills consists of waste glass this is also true of incinerator residue. 

Refractoiy materials are materials which resist high temperatures. They are basically used in the firing industries and first and foremost in the steel industry, which by itself represents two-thirds of the applications of these materials. We also use refractory materials in foundries, in the fabrication of non-ferrous metals P30U 99], cement, glass and ceramics and, to lesser extent, in the petrochemical and the chemical industries, in the incineration of waste and energy production.
