EcoCity recommends transfer stations for the primary

reason of reducing the cost of transporting waste to

In case a ram feeder is used, it will shift and mix the waste

The waste is incinerated in a rigid incineration chamber.

Combustion air is blown into the incinerated material by a

A burner system is installed to start up the incinerator and

In emergency cases a sprinkler system is installed inside the

incinerator. The sprinkler system is connected to a water

tank. The combustion chamber is lined entirely with high
