As shown in the images above, standard incinerators use a grate, where the waste material sits on this grate while it burns and smolders, giving off smoke, fly ash, and other harmful emissions.
These grates can be moving, shaking, or even stationary, where the partially burned material is then moved to either a secondary chamber where it will burn a second time, or dumped into an ash residue collection system.
The Firebird V-3™ on the right shows the 90 mph tornado-like motion of the vortex, as the shredded waste material is introduced tangentially into the chamber, then moves from the front of the unit to the back wall, where it gets re-introduced back into the high speed vortex for continuous burning.
This process allows the waste material to burn until complete and perfect combustion is achieved, not just once or twice as with standard incinerator technology. This continuous burning process does not produce harmful emissions, fly ash, or even smoke, therefore this technology does not require any large, expensive, and complex exhaust scrubber systems.
