EXAM WITH 100% CORRECT
ANSWERS
Primary Combustion Chamber - CORRECT ANSWERS-Chamber within a
cremator where primary ignition and burning of the case occurs.
Afterburner - CORRECT ANSWERS-A burner installed in the secondary
combustion chamber, or in chambers separated from the incinerator proper.
(Sometimes referred to as a secondary burner.)
Combustion - CORRECT ANSWERS-the process in which external HEAT
energy starts a chemical reaction between FUEL and OXYGEN
Cremation - CORRECT ANSWERS-the reduction of a dead human body to
inorganic bone fragments by intense heat in a specifically designed retort or
chamber.
Hot Hearth - CORRECT ANSWERS-A surface upon which waste material is
placed to dry and/or burn aided by the action of hot combustion gases that
pass first over the waste material, and then under the hearth.
Incineration - CORRECT ANSWERS-The process of igniting and burning solid,
semi-solid or gaseous combustible waste to carbon dioxide and water vapor.
Incinerator - CORRECT ANSWERS-An engineered apparatus capable of
withstanding heat and designed to efficiently reduce solid, semi-solid, liquid
or gaseous waste at specified rates, and from which the residues contain
little or no combustible material.
Mixing Chamber - CORRECT ANSWERS-Chamber usually placed between the
primary combustion chamber and the secondary combustion chamber where
thorough mixing of the products of combustion is accomplished by
turbulence created by increased velocities of gases, checkerwork and/or
turns in direction of the gas flow.
, Particulates or Particulate Matter - CORRECT ANSWERS-Suspended ash

secondary burner - CORRECT ANSWERS-A burner installed in the secondary
combustion chamber to maintain temperature and complete the combustion
process. (Sometimes referred to as an afterburner).
Burning rate - CORRECT ANSWERS-The amount of waste incinerated per unit
time, usually expressed in pounds per hour
Calcination - CORRECT ANSWERS-The process of reducing human remains to
its basic elements in the form of bone fragments through heat and
vaporization, less the element of flame due to controlled oxygen.
Combustion - CORRECT ANSWERS-Burning the interaction of fuel with
oxygen accompanied by the well-defined flame-releasing heat
heat, fuel, oxygen - CORRECT ANSWERS-3 elements of combustion
** Cremation - CORRECT ANSWERS-** CANA Definition: The process of
