A research program directed at developing technology for compact shipboard incinerators for sludges is described. The concept utilizes previously developed Vortex Containment Combustor (VCC) as a primary unit with an active combustion control afterburner (AB). The overall power scale of the combined system is 0.15MJoule/sec and has a target sludge processing rate of 0.75 liter/ min. Tests were undertaken to evaluate the particulate suspension qualities of the VCC and the overall performance of the combined VCC I active control AB processing intermediate levels of a surrogate sludge.
