10 reasons to choose the incinerator offered by IGE Incineradores

10 reasons to choose the incinerator offered by IGE Incineradores

1.- REFRACTION

At IGE Incineradores, we strive to build the most robust, reliable, and efficient machines on the market thanks to the lined brick.

• Interlocking bricks, so there are no steel anchors in the cremation area.
• Twice the thickness of the linings compared to competitors, allowing for 40% more fuel efficiency.
• Low porosity and high purity bricks that prevent liquid penetration and achieve a higher degree of impermeability than other conventional bricks.
• High resistance impact and abrasion block in the retention system. The cover has been designed to prevent mechanical damage during loading, help preserve brick structures, and combat general wear.

2.- EXPERIENCE

With over 35 years of experience in the industry of incineration and cremation, these are our references:

• UN
• The World Food Programme
• Doctors Without Borders
• Red Cross
• The Medical Research Council (UK)
• European Union Commission
• BQP. Largest pig producer in the UK
• Sukarne. Largest livestock producer in Central America
• Cargill. One of the largest poultry producers in the world
• Marine Harvest. The largest aquaculture company
• Mars. One of the largest food and chocolate companies

3.- COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS

The Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model is a testing technique used to verify gas flows and their velocities within the incinerator. It is the same technique used in the design of airplanes, cars (F1), and power plants.

We use it to ensure:

• 100% waste destruction.
• Making the best use of the generated heat.
• Eliminating excessively hot or cold spots.

This is the only way to measure that the retention time in the secondary chamber is correct.

If not done scrupulously, inadequate gas management can lead to the emission of dioxins harmful to health.

4.- PAINT SYSTEM

Our IGE Incineradores machines undergo a two-coat paint system, the same technology used in car manufacturing.

• Highly durable and withstands the most extreme conditions.
• Consists of spraying the steel exterior with a protective paint layer that is baked at 70° C to ensure complete adherence.

5. PLUG AND PLAY

The electronic systems of our incinerators (IGE Incineradores) are easy to operate: they only require plugging in to use.

This reduces startup time and simplifies future electronic issues.

All electronics are governed by the BS7671-17 standard and the IP65 environmental standard.

6.- DOORS AND COVERS

The door and cover system of our incinerators (IGE Incineradores) is made of compressed low thermal mass fiber.

• Many machines lower costs by using concrete in the doors, but it is not effective in sealing the gases generated inside the combustion chamber.
• The lightweight and resistant refractory fiber creates a seal in the window frame, retains heat, and prevents any air entry that could affect the burning process.

7.- FUEL EFFICIENCY ECOCYCLE™

The EcoCycle™ involves accumulating energy to achieve the most efficient energy expenditure possible, obtaining one of the most fuel-efficient incinerators on the market and, therefore, environmentally sustainable. This technology incorporates:

• 180mm-221mm refractory wall that prevents heat loss inside the machine.
• Double layer of interlocking insulating brick. The high-quality bricks reflect heat inside the combustion chamber, while their insulation prevents heat loss.
• Burners stop when the optimal incineration temperature is reached to save fuel and facilitate the cleaning process.
• Intelligent Controllers Ai742 – PLC that automatically adjust burning cycles so that they burn waste without fuel.
• Computational Fluid Dynamics.

8.- MANUFACTURING AND STEELWORK

Did you know…?

• In our IGE Incineradores factory, steel is laser cut with a precision of +/- 10 micrometers.
• We use a solid 10mm thick steel plate for the primary chambers.
• Steel is acid-treated to prevent corrosion during the incineration process.
• Already integrated into our larger machines, the front has a protective cover.

This allows us to:

• Ensure quality in the manufacturing process.
• Build the machine to measure.
• Customize existing designs to meet specific customer requirements.
• In March 2017, we inaugurated a new factory where we concentrate 100% of the manufacturing of our incineration equipment located in Burntwood, Staffordshire.

9.- MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

Long-lasting maintenance

The high-quality materials used in the construction of our machines guarantee long-term use with minimal maintenance.

The machines are built in such a way that the required maintenance can be performed on-site quickly, economically, and effectively.

• A good example of this is our refractory-coated brick instead of the refractory concrete used by other incinerators available on the market.
• This damaged material will require a construction specialist to realign the entire machinery for effective repair, which must be done in the factory. In contrast, refractory bricks are repaired on-site by simply replacing the bricks.

Annual maintenance

We recommend a series of annual maintenance services: burner cleaning including the fuel filter, fuel injectors, diffusers, and nozzles.

• We use ECOFLAM burners in our machines, as we believe they are the most robust and reliable on the market, and their spare parts are available through a wide distribution network.
• We also have a 15-year spare parts availability guarantee.
