Traditional Incinerators

Traditional incinerators have been around for decades and have been a popular choice for waste disposal. These machines burn waste at high temperatures, reducing it to ash. However, there are some drawbacks to using traditional incinerators.

Firstly, traditional incinerators can be expensive to operate. They require a lot of fuel to maintain high temperatures, and the ash that is produced can be difficult to dispose of. Additionally, high temperatures can create emissions that are harmful to the environment.

Another drawback of traditional incinerators is that they can be limited in terms of what they can burn. They may not be able to burn certain types of waste, such as wood, that are commonly produced in the landscaping industry.

Air Burners

Air burners are a newer technology that offers an alternative to traditional incinerators. These machines use a process called pyrolysis, which breaks down waste into gas and biochar. The gas is burned off, leaving behind biochar, a substance that can be used for soil amendment.

Air burners are often more cost-effective than traditional incinerators, as they require less fuel to operate. They also produce fewer emissions and can burn a wider range of materials, including wood and green waste commonly produced in the landscaping industry.

Which One is the Better Choice for Your Business?

When it comes to deciding between traditional incinerators and air burners, there are a few factors to consider.

Firstly, consider the type of waste your business produces. If you primarily produce waste that can be burned in an air burner, such as wood and green waste, then an air burner may be the better choice for you. On the other hand, if you produce a lot of waste that cannot be burned in an air burner, such as plastics, then a traditional incinerator may be a better choice.

Another factor to consider is the cost of operation. Traditional incinerators are generally significantly more expensive to operate. Especially when considering smaller volumes of waste and wood or natural sources of debris. 

Lastly, consider the environmental impact of each option. Traditional incinerators can produce harmful emissions, while air burners produce fewer emissions and create a useful byproduct in biochar.
