Abstract

The invention relates to a flue gas pipe (1) of an incineration plant, comprising a reaction zone (2) for breaking down harmful substances and a heat exchanger (3) for cooling the flue gas (R) which is mounted downstream and fitted with a dioxin catalytic converter (4). The dioxin catalytic converter (4) in the heat exchanger (3) makes it possible to prevent the renewed formation of dioxins by de novo synthesis when the temperature drops.
