> Incineration at temperatures above 1200°C is considered the most effective way of destroying dioxins.
Though "Thermal desorption, which operates at lower temperature range to vaporize dioxins, is also commonly used." Which wouldn't be good in terms of distribution of the dioxins into the air and throughout the environment, unless they concentrate and destroy the liberated dioxins (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_desorption https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_desorption ).
So regardless of the history of clean air violations, the important thing for dioxins in particular are the heat of this incinerator, whether that heat is evenly distributed throughout the burn mass, and whether the incineration is fully enclosed until it is finished.
