Abstract The present invention relates to an electronic incinerating apparatus for incinerating organic matter such as garbage having a high rate of water content. This apparatus is composed of a primary combustion chamber (4) into which garbage to be burned is put and a secondary combustion chamber (18) in which decomposition gas of garbage (2) is burned; and the garbage (2) is decomposed or carbonized by microwave in the primary combustion chamber (4), and the decomposition gas is burned by an igniting apparatus in the secondary combustion chamber (18) where no microwave is irradiated. This constitution is characterized in that garbage is dried by microwave to become a good quality fuel, and is thereafter decomposed and burned perfectly, and therefore the exhaust gas is clean and the garbage can be burned perfectly to ashes at high temperatures, so that the treatment is extremely sanitary. The present invention relates to a constitution, control and materials for realizing an electronic incinerating apparatus, and the above-described operation can be carried out by these matters.
A microwave garbage incinerator comprising: a primary combustion chamber having an opening in an upper part thereof; a storing chamber for enclosing said primary combustion chamber; a top cover made of a material passing microwave radiation for covering said opening of said primary combustion chamber, said top cover being mounted on an upper part of said storing chamber and having means defining a first opening at a central portion for passing gaseous substances therethrough while preventing passage of microwave radiation and at least a second opening for communicating to said storing chamber; a microwave generating means for applying microwave radiation to said primary combustion chamber through said top cover; blower means for directing air into said storing chamber through said second opening; a secondary combustion chamber for burning gaseous substance having an aperture for communicating with said first opening of said primary combustion chamber; and a temperature sensor mounted in said secondary combustion chamber.
