Advanced Combustion Systems’ incineration system has been chosen by the USDA to burn animals that test positive for Mad Cow Disease in Washington State. ACS’s CA-1100 infectious waste incinerator will burn up to 750 lbs/hr.  Whole bovines can be loaded at one time eliminating human exposure to contaminated waste. A similar system completed in has been installed at Michigan State University, which has a larger capacity, handling 1200lb. contaminated whole bovines. These systems are totally integrated with auto feed, ash removal, and Air Pollution Control (APC) scrubber system.  PLC controls with Data Acquisition (DAS) and Continuous Emissions Monitoring (CEM) systems were provided by Advanced Control Systems, a division of ACS, Inc.  Contact Mike Milnes at mike@acs-acs.com for further information.

ACS now offers our PC-Series Portable Containerized Systems for instant “plug-in turn-on” applications.  Totally self-contained, these units are suitable for remote sites, small work camps, villages and marine vessels. Features include Conex enclosure, with full front and  rear access, hinged or bolted stacks, and load ramp.  Contact our sales department for more information.

Advanced Combustion Systems has shipped three CA-Series Cremation Systems in the first quarter of this year.  These units feature programmable controllers and dual feed systems.  These systems are all similar to the system shown above, incorporating dual-step hearth design with extended retention secondary chambers.  ACS’ High Lift cart tipping system was developed to dock with standard, off-the-shelf, plastic carts.

CS manufactures an incineration system to burn infected waste related to mad cow, hoof and mouth disease and other infectious or toxic waste.  ACS has developed our HSW-DSH series dual-step hearth to insure maximum operator protection and total destruction of all pathogens. Through the entire incineration and ash removal process, infectious materials are never in contact with operators.  The transport of all materials is automated.  All liquids developed during the burning process are retained in the system for total burn off.  Contact our sales department for more information.

Batch Oxidizing Systems (B.O.S.) technology has been around since the 1940’s. ACS has manufactured batch load systems since 1972.  This is not considered a new technology, as some manufacturers may want you to believe.  ACS has taken batch oxidizing systems a step forward in technology by offering its new line of fully modulated controlled air and fuel oxidizing systems, which represents the latest and most efficient batch load oxidizer.  By fully controlling combustion air and fuel ACS’s Batch Oxidizer provides the cleanest burning and most fuel-efficient stand alone systems available. Uncontrolled combustion air/fuel found on B.O.S. systems can cause a “runaway” burning condition resulting in excess gases to the secondary chamber which can become overloaded, causing poor or unacceptable air emissions.
