Abstract At the AFRC/JFRC joint conference held at Maui, Hawaii in October 1994, I submitted a report on the result of the de-NOx operational test carried out in USA using natural-gas reburning technology. Since the test was successful in achieving stable de-NOx under low CO environment, its effectiveness in reducing dioxin emission was anticipated. Today, I wish to report on another test carried out, this time in Japan, for the reduction of NOx and dioxin, using Japanese municipal solid waste (MSW) which has higher moisture content and lower heat value US waste. Since fossil fuel is used for this operation and heat recovery is very important, a separately-fired superheater using natural gas was installed, and its exhaust gas was used as the carrier of the natural gas for reburning, improving the heat efficiency.
