Environmental Combustion Technologies Limited products

The ram loader comprises of a horizontal or slightly inclined hydraulically operated loading machine, specifically designed to introduce the waste into the incinerator via an interlocked hydraulic charge door, which seals the primary combustion chamber from the waste and operator. This is both safe and environmentally efficient as it prevents the ingress of uncontrolled air, associated with manual loading.

For dense wastes such as wood or whole large animal carcasses, pre-treatment of the waste by crushing may be considered. Pre-treatment of this type of waste has several advantages. Large quantities of waste may be processed through the crusher and stored within a hopper irrespective of the incinerators availability.

Fixed and hot hearth incinerators arranged for manual loading will incorporate one or two interlocked hinged doors. The main door when opened will expose the whole of the primary chamber cross section, making it ideal for the bulk loading of waste and for the easy removal of ash. The incinerator may also incorporate a batch load door, to enable smaller quantities of waste to be introduced on a continuous basis. To prevent the ingress of uncontrolled air, the doors are fitted with ceramic seals.
