When would I need to Incinerate?
As sheep farmers, you will be aware of the increase in animals during lambing season. It is at this time we see the biggest increase in demand for our products. They are used primarily for the disposal of any fallen livestock or stillborn lambs. Animal incineration has become far more advanced over the years and it is widely accepted that almost all the emissions from these incinerators are in fact just clean air.
Most of our agricultural models are DEFRA type approved with a burn rate of less than 50kg per hour.
You can use them on your own farm for carcass disposal, and the destruction of other waste material allowed within the WID (Waste Incineration Directive).
Typical diseases that animal carcass Incineration can eradicate:
if operating at over 50kg per hour in the UK you will need to obtain planning permission and possibly a permit from your local authority. For waste solutions outside of the UK please check with your local government offices or regulation laws.
We also have a page dedicated to incinerators specifically for Fallen Stock or Animal By-Products. For any other kind of livestock or agricultural incinerator please take a look at our Animal Incinerator page.
