Incineration is the waste combustion at controlled high temperatures which converts waste into flue gas with the main components being CO2 and water. Temperature control aims to ensure safe combustion operation. In this study, the temperature controller uses a two-position temperature controller whose main components include two thermocouples, MAX6675, two burners, blower, Arduino, and one laptop. Temperature controllers were used to maintain the temperature in the combustion chamber and afterburner at the specified setpoint, namely 630oC and 850oC, respectively. To test the performance of the controller, two models were made. The modeling was made using the experimental data obtained. The results show that the model and experimental results are in good agreement.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
