  • Incinerator with improved means for transferring burning waste through the combustion chamber
    Patent number: 4172425
    Abstract: A controlled air incinerator having an increased capacity for burning waste material and having increased efficiency for completely burning all burnable waste material fed thereto. The controlled air incinerator, which is sometimes referred to as a "starved air" incinerator, requires accurate control of burning conditions so as to provide at all times a discharge of clean flue gases free from pollutants. In the present incinerator, means are provided for transferring the waste material therethrough while burning, the means causing the burning waste material to tumble within the combustion chamber and open up so as to expose to combustion air any unburned but burnable parts of the waste material whereby the oxygen of the combustion air will result in complete combustion.
