Incineration can be an effective way to dispose of garbage, but it has to be controlled to prevent air pollution. This means the installation of, for example, electrostatic precipitators to remove fine particles from the stack emissions, scrubbers to remove sulphur dioxide and other chemical systems to remove other gases. All this adds to the cost, and all these things kept out of the air become solids, adding to the ash residue that still has to be buried in a landfill. One potential way of reducing the cost of controlled incineration is to use the heat developed to produce steam for heating or power. But at the moment, this is an alternative involving substantial problems. It is not likely. that such approaches will be practical in North America except in specific limited circumstances. It may be possible to couple incineration to heating facilities for a large, compact, high-density development, especially if refuse hand- ling within the development can be simplified. In Hamilton, an incinerator has been designed to take ground garbage for more efficient combustion. The ground material has less storage bulk and is easier to handle. The design of the equipment is based on the assumption that most of the ground material will burn in the air in the unit before it falls through the grate. This should result in better combustion and a more stable ash. . In contrast, the pit incinerator is a relatively unsophisticated unit. } This is basically a concrete pit in which waste is burned with a certain degree of control over the emission of burning debris and fine particles through air blowers which set up a rotating current of air in the pit. The unit is screened with wire mesh and newer units have remote-operated gates. But these installations are not suitable or acceptable except in limited applications in areas remote from development. : Incinerators, while they cut down the bulk of a city's garbage, do not eliminate the need for landfill. Every municipal installation has a solid residue load that must still be disposed of. It is impossible to make a general statement on which is besf--incinerators or landfill, the two most popular solutions to waste disposal. The choice of method depends too much on individual circum- stances--land costs, pollution levels and loads among other factors, 2 Both methods have enough drawbacks to keep experiments going all over North America in _ composting, separate collection for recycling, mecha- nical separation of the components of garbage for "re-use and other reclamation schemes.
