Polymer waste disposal of is one of the most pressing problems of our time. The incineration method is widespread, but it has its drawbacks. Problems during the polymer waste combustion, which include low combustion efficiency, combustion products toxicity, significantly reduce the possibility of waste disposal incinerators using. In this regard, t...

... should be noted that for the explosive combustion mode case, the flame soot tail disappearance is observed. Figure 2 shows the field effect on the relative combustion rate results (negative electrical tension corresponds to the direction - E , positive - E ). The experimental results indicate that the electrostatic field has the strongest effect on the combustion rate at E , in particular, for rubber and polypropylene the combustion rate increases by 300-400% at field strength up to 200 kV/m, for polystyrene by 150-180%. ...
