29、andard onIncinerators and Waste and Linen Handling Systems and Equipment2014 EditionThis edition of NFPA 82, Standard on Incinerators and Waste and Linen Handling Systems andEquipment, was prepared by the Technical Committee on Incinerators and Waste HandlingSystems. It was issued by the Standards C

30、ouncil on November 12, 2013, with an effective dateof December 2, 2013, and supersedes all previous editions.This edition of NFPA 82 was approved as an American National Standard on December 2,2013.Origin and Development of NFPA 82This standard was first adopted by the NFPA in 1948 on recommendation

31、 of the Committee onField Practice. In 1953, a completely revised edition of the text on incinerators was prepared by arepresentative subcommittee and adopted by the NFPA on recommendation of the Committeeon Building Construction. Responsibility for the subject of incinerators was turned over to the

32、Committee on Chimneys and Heating Equipment in 1956. Revised editions were adopted in1955, 1958, 1960, 1969, 1970, 1971, and 1972. The original 1948 text covered both rubbish han-dling and incinerators; the 1953, 1955, 1958, and 1960 revisions covered only incinerators. In the1960 edition, incinerat

33、ors and rubbish handling were covered by separate standards, NFPA 82,Standard on Incinerators, and NFPA 82A, Standard for Rubbish Handling, respectively, with NFPA 82Aremaining unchanged from the 1948 edition. In the 1969 edition, the subject of rubbish handlingwas included with incinerators, and NF

34、PA 82A was discontinued as a separate standard. The 1977edition was expanded to include linen handling systems, and the 1983 edition represented apartial revision, which was mainly editorial.The 1990 edition contained minor revisions to Chapters 1 and 2, including a minorchange to the Scope section.

35、 Chapters 3 and 4 were completely revised, and a new AppendixA was added to provide technical information to facilitate the selection of chimney materialsfor handling saturated and corrosive gases. The entire section on domestic incinerators wasdeleted from the 1990 edition.For the 1994 edition, Cha

36、pters 3 and 4 were combined into one chapter (new Chapter 3).Limited-combustible construction was recognized by a new definition and by a new exceptionthat allowed limited-combustible construction for a gravity chute enclosure where a buildingis protected throughout by a supervised automatic sprinkl

37、er system. Also, new Chapters 4 and7 were added to address waste handling systems other than chute systems and waste process-ing equipment other than compactors.The 1999 edition clarified that NFPA 82 does not apply to one- and two-family residentialstructures. Chapter 3 was modified to allow for a

38、maximum 45 degree chute offset above thetop-loading door. Additionally, Chapter 3 was modified to reduce the minimum linen chutesize to 20 in. and to reduce the termination height of chute venting to 3 ft above the roof ofthe building. Chapter 5 was also modified to delete the requirements associate

39、d with domes-tic compactors.The 2004 edition was revised and restructured to conform to the Manual of Style for NFPATechnical Committee Documents. Technical changes included clarification of the difference be-tween discharge doors serving waste chutes and those serving linen chutes and clarification

40、 ofthe dimensional requirements for service opening rooms.The 2009 edition contained a revision to the scope to include maintenance requirementsfor incinerators and waste and linen handling systems and equipment. A new Chapter 10 wasalso added to address the maintenance requirements spelled out in t

41、he scope. Chapter 8 wasrevised to include recyclables storage rooms. New definitions for gravity chute intake door,pneumatic chute loading door, general access chute, and limited access chute were added toChapter 3.821NFPA and National Fire Protection Association are registered trademarks of the Nat

42、ional Fire Protection Association, Quincy, Massachusetts 02169.For the 2014 edition, the committee has revised the use of the terms fire resistance rating and fire protection rating to bemore consistent with how they are defined and used within other NFPA documents. All uses of the terms loading, se

43、rviceopening, and service loading have been changed to intake for consistency within the document and to match its use withinthe industry. The definition for chute discharge door has been added to differentiate between the types of doors used inchute operations. The committee has also added the use

44、of a fire damper in lieu of a fire door, which reflects currentpractice. A fire damper provides for the level of protection equivalent to a fire door, but it eliminates much of themaintenance concerns of a fire door. A fire damper also provides a much more effective seal at the opening than thestand

45、ard, horizontal sliding fire door used at the bottom of most waste chutes. The fire protection rating for theopenings in the chute enclosure have also been clarified to be consistent with other changes during this revision. Therequirements for external fed waste compactors have been expanded by addi

46、ng a definition to clarify how an externalwaste compactor is different than a waste compactor and by adding specific requirements in Chapter 8 to address therisk of fire and smoke spread from the compactor back into the building, which is the main hazard of these type ofcompactors. Requirements have

47、 been added for decommissioning a chute to give users a method to remove the chutedoor while maintaining the rating of the chute enclosure. In addition, references have been updated and othereditorial changes have been approved for consistency with the Manual of Style for NFPATechnical Committee Doc
