Abstract

L'invention concerne une installation d'incinération comprenant un four (1) comportant des grilles mobiles (14, 18, 20) sur lesquelles un carburant est brûlé. Les gaz de combustion sont dirigés à travers au moins des premier et second passages de rayonnement (80, 81, 82) s'étendant verticalement et ensuite à travers un certain nombre de passages de convection (83, 84). Un premier surchauffeur (30) est disposé dans l'un des passages de convection. Un second surchauffeur (87, 87a, 87b) comprend un tuyau métallique intérieur (36) à travers lequel la vapeur s'écoule et un corps métallique extérieur (38) entourant le tuyau métallique intérieur (36). Un espacement (50) est muni entre le tuyau métallique intérieur et le corps métallique extérieur. Le second surchauffeur est conçu pour le chauffage supplémentaire de la vapeur chauffée dans le premier surchauffeur et il est disposé dans le four et/ou le premier passage de rayonnement (80) s'étendant verticalement et/ou le second passage de rayonnement (81) s'étendant verticalement.
