Abstract

Unreacted gas generated at outside is introduced through a gas inlet tangentially into a secondary combustion chamber with a substantially cylindrical side wall, so that a spiral ascending flow of the unreacted gas is generated in the chamber. A bulk material in the chamber is blown up by the unreacted gas introduced through the gas inlet to be circulated in the chamber so as to substantially completely burn unburnt solids entrained in the unreacted gas.
