T-300
Air Curtain Trench Burner with Perkins 404D.22T or Kubota V2403-TE Engine
All of this is carefully engineered to provide the correct amount of air at the correct
velocity. It is sometimes thought that more air flow will actually increase the burn
rate. This is INCORRECT. Modifying the air flow will actually have the opposite
effect and reduce the machine's through-put. Additionally it will reduce the ma-
chine's ability to meet air quality minimum standards. There is a maximum rate at
which wood can burn. Trying to exceed that rate by adding more air to an air cur-
tain burner causes two major problems:
1) It will cool the fire reducing combustion efficiency creating more smoke (carbon
dioxide and nitrogen enriched). This will begin a circular effect of further reduc-
ing the oxygen and further reducing combustion efficiency. The result is your
through-put drops and smoke increases.
2) Increasing the air flow beyond design standards will over pressurize the pit
causing larger sized particles to be ejected from the pit. Besides violating the
EPA limits for PM (particulate matter) the larger hotter embers ejected will
pose a much greater fire hazard.
