Optimization and Security of Hazardous Waste Incineration Plants with the Use of a Heuristic Algorithm

The amount of generated waste, which increases every year, is a serious problem of the modern world. In particular, attention should be paid to hazardous waste and methods of its disposal. One of the most used in this context is thermal treatment in dedicated incinerators equipped with a rotary kiln...
