Plastic Burner with optional second boom
Plastic mulch can be burned with our towed burning rig while it lies on the planting bed. Our SM400 burning rig is a chassis designed to carry a 500 gallon or 1000 gallon (1895 or 3790 L) propane tank, which is supplied by the customer. To the rear of the chassis is a boom that swings to one side of the equipment. This boom carries two million BTU burners on it. When set at the correct pressure, the burners will vaporize the plastic mulch. There is no lifting or removing mulch from the field with this piece of equipment. An additional benefit of our burning rig is that it burns string and dead vines from stakes. The heat from the burners cleans the stakes and leaves them free and undamaged so that you can follow with a stake puller and remove them from the field. To be successful with any type of burning rig, it is important to remember several factors. If the plastic mulch is wet and covered with a large volume of dead fruit or trash, you may find that you cannot burn 100% of the mulch. Many of our customers lift the mulch from several beds and collect it into one bed, allow it to dry, and then pass over it with a burner. Pay close attention to burning pressure and field conditions for best results.
