Abstract
A process for consuming oily sludge waste product in steel making operations includes spraying a waste slurry onto the moving porous bed of a sinter strand. A burner hood is spaced above a portion of the moving bed. The bed carries a sinter mix which is ignited in the ignition zone of the burner hood and the slurry is sprayed onto the ignited sinter mix immediately downstream of the ignition zone. A vacuum system draws the slurry through the ignited sinter mix ensuring substantially complete combustion of the slurry.
