Incineration: Challenges and Solutions for durability and maintenance
At TEIDE, we have a deep knowledge of incineration sector due to more than 40 years providing solutions. Solutions for both in WEP, Special waste, Sanitary and Biomass ones.
For each challenge, we innovate, manufacture and set up our 360 refractory solutions
Challenge | Increased Durability
Solution
Products with high resistance to thermal shock, mechanical strength, atmospheric attack and oxidation.
How do we do it?
Through the own manufacture of a combination of specific products, adapted for each type of need in each area of the kiln, which are adapted according to the requirements of use of the facilities.
1
Zones with high and fast temperature changes
Solutions that provides low reversible expansion
2
Zones with high mechanical stress and/or abrasion
We provide materials with high mechanical strength
3
Zones with aggressive atmospheres and chemical attacks
Solutions using low porosity products and paints
3
Zones with
oxidizing
atmospheres
Several researches drives us to achieve materials with a minimum oxidation
Challenge | Facility optimization and maintenance
Solution
How do we do it?
We have 5 analysis modules based on FEM (Finite Element Method) that allow us to simulate the performance of individual parts and complex structures, such as incinerators.
We compare the original design with new proposals in pursuit of efficiency.
Proposals
We have a wide range of Unshaped materials,
Shaped materials and Water Paints
Unshaped Materials
- Casted high quality concrete
- Hidraulic dense concrete LCC (low cement content)

- Crome oxide and water paintings
FAQs
Which areas do you address in rotary incineration kilns, and what tends to fail most often?
Areas exposed to chemical attack and abrasion (feed zone, chamber, ducts), as well as shutdown/start-up cycles.
Do you have specific experience with rotary kilns for hazardous/toxic products?
Yes: you communicate it as a specialization in incineration and energy.
How do you select the material: chemical resistance vs. thermal shock?
It is defined by atmosphere, gas/salt composition, temperature, and cycles: we prioritize resistance to penetration/corrosion and spalling where applicable.
Do you include lining design and installation?
Yes, as part of your 360° service (engineering + installation + follow-up).
What data do I need to provide for a diagnosis?
Type of waste/fuel, temperature, shutdowns, photos by zone, campaign history, and gas/ash analyses if available.
