<br /> The incinerator was completed in 1962 and there have been no repairs to the furnaces
<br />since then. The refractory tile has deteriorated tO a~dangerous level:and requires
<br />major repairs. In the areas of the combustion-chambers, spray water chambers and
<br />stack flues, the tile is worn' 3" to 3½" off'the original tile resulting in a 50% loss
<br />of heat reflection. In addition, several of the-ref~actoryexpansion joints have disinte-
<br />grated, allowing the refractory tile walls to sag do~mward leaving open gaps in the
<br />walls. This could destroy the steel refractory castings and the structural steel frame
<br />of the incinerator if-not repaired.
<br />

<br />
