Fire Boxes
The Fire Boxes are the skid-mounted
S-Series machines. They are used as both permanent (stationary) units at
landfills or transfer stations or as portable units, for example, in the
land clearing or forest industries. The S-Series machines come in three sizes:
| • |
The 300
Series units have a cross sectional area of approximately 12 feet
wide by 12 feet high. |
| • |
The 200
Series units have a cross sectional area of approximately 8 feet
wide by 8 feet high. |
| • |
The 100
Series units have a cross sectional area of approximately 6 feet
wide by 6 feet high. |

The S-Series machines are
portable systems and are transported completely assembled.
Depending on the firebox model, they can be transported by Air Burners'
custom firebox trailer, low-boy trailer, step-deck trailer, flatbed
trailer or in an ocean shipping container (S-100 Series only). The
S-Series custom yet universal-use trailers that are self-loading and
self-unloading are available from Air
Burners, LLC. A custom slide axle trailer is offered for the S-300
Series and a custom
tilt-bed tag trailer for the smaller S-200 and S-100 Series
fireboxes.
Utilizing a refractory walled enclosure.
They are completely self-contained and do not require any setup or teardown.
They can be used for portable applications as well as semi-permanent applications.

The refractory lined fire box
allows for more controlled burns without the need for an earthen pit or
trench. The S-Series units are loaded over the top. The twin doors at the
rear of the machine allow for ash removal. The unit can be dragged on its
skids around the site for dumping of ash and/or repositioning of the unit.
The ash can also be removed by scooping it out with the excavator or other
piece of equipment. The area inside the refractory walls is open to the
ground.

The patented air disbursement
manifold system is mounted on one side of the combustion pit so that the
loading of waste to be processed can be facilitated from the opposite
side. The principle of the air curtain concept is optimized with
this design. High velocity air is directed across and downwards
at an angle into the pit creating the air curtain on top and a rotational
turbulence within the pit itself. The rotational turbulence provides an
oxygen-enriched environment within the combustion zone which accelerates
the combustion process by raising the temperatures within the pit to
approximately 1,832º F (approx. 1,000º C).
The high velocity air curtain
traps the unburned particulates. The end result achieves nearly
100% combustion with minimal escaped particulate and opacity below 10%. The vertical refractory walls not only enhance the
efficiency of the air curtain principle, but also aid in the combustion
process by retaining and reflecting the high temperatures generated within
the chamber.

(Loading onto Slide-Axle Trailer at Factory) |
The volume of material that can be processed per hour is a function of
density of the waste material, its moisture content, the employed loading
techniques and the time period in which optimum temperatures in the pit
can be retained. See specification
charts (below on this page) for estimated through put capabilities.
Upon completion of the combustion stage, the
waste material will be reduced in bulk by 98% leaving only 2% in volume as
residual ash. On the average an eight hour burn will be reduced to
approximately six to twelve inches of ash.

Operation (Florida) |
Ash removal is facilitated through
the back of the pit where refractory panel doors can be opened and the
ash removed. The entire unit can now be dragged in the forward direction
away from the ash pile. Once the ash is dumped, burning can be resumed.
The residual ash from wood waste
can either be retrieved and sold to nurseries as a soil amendment, or
it can be mixed with the soil right at the location, as the material is
non-polluting and becomes a generally desirable soil enhancer.

The S-Series Air Curtain Systems
have been engineered and are being manufactured to help meet our ongoing
challenges in the volume reduction of various waste streams, and in the
recycling of residual waste products through environmentally friendly
and economically sound methods. Air Burners Air Curtain Systems
are built to last, and incorporate state-of-the-art design and engineering
concepts to achieve unparalleled performance.
