Liquid incinerator

Claim 2

An incinerator for the combustion of solid and liquid waste materials comprising an elongate housing having an inlet port for solid wastes and an outlet port for the exhaust of hot gaseous products of combustion therefrom, inlet means for the supply of air to said housing, a port for the supply of liquid waste to said housing, and an elongate shelf parallel with said housing and subjacent the liquid supply port adapted to retard the flow of liquid waste whereby said liquid waste is retained and simultaneously subjected to hot products of combustion circulating in the housing.

Claim 3

An incinerator for the burning of solid and liquid waste materials that includes an elongate housing defining a combustion chamber having an inlet opening for solid wastes at one end and an outlet port for the exhaust of hot gaseous products of combustion at the other end, a source of air for combustion, means for the supply of air to the combustion chamber, an inlet port in said housing for the supply of liquid waste thereto, and an elongate shelf means subjacent the inlet opening for liquid waste having an end portion lying adjacent the inlet port for solid wastes adapted to retard the flow of liquid waste as it is supplied into said chamber and arranged to permit removal of said elongate shelf through the inlet port for solid wastes.

Claim 4

An incinerator for the burning of solid and liquid waste materials that includes an elongate housing defining a combustion chamber having an inlet opening for solid wastes at one end and an outlet port for the exhaust of hot gaseous products of combustion at the other end, a source of air for combustion, means for the supply of air to the combustion chamber, an inlet port in said housing for the supply of liquid waste thereto, and an elongate shelf means subjacent the inlet opening for liquid waste having an end portion lying adjacent the inlet port for solid wastes adapted to retard the flow of liquid waste as it is supplied into said chamber and arranged to permit removal of said elongate shelf through the inlet port for solid wastes.

Claim 5

An incinerator for the burning of solid and liquid waste material as defined in claim 2 including a plurality of brackets that laterally support the shelf means thereon.

Claim 6

An incinerator for the burning of solid and liquid waste material as defined in claim 2 wherein the shelf means is comprised of heat resistant ceramic material.

Claim 7

An incinerator for the burning of solid and liquid waste material as defined in claim 2 wherein said shelf means includes a lateral rim that effectively retains additional liquid on the upper surface of the shelf.

Claim 8

An incinerator for the burning of solid and liquid waste material as defined in claim 2 wherein said shelf means includes escape routes through which liquid may flow and be divided into droplet form.

Claim 9

An incinerator for the burning of solid and liquid waste material as defined in claim 2 wherein the liquid flow retarding shelf includes a well to contain liquid waste to be vaporized.

Claim 10

An incinerator for the burning of solid and liquid waste as defined in claim 7 including an air supply line connected to the well to agitate the liquid therein.
