The recent increase in cost of dead stock collection services on the farm has made incineration become an interesting alternative. Three manufacturers of Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s province designed on-farm incinerators and had them evaluated under the instigation of the FPPQ (Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s Pork Producers\u2019 Federation). The three incinerators assayed in this campaign were the Br\u00fble-\u00d4-Max, \u00c9co-Concept and Max-Flame apparatus. According to the assay, these three models showed, respectively: a capacity of 454kg, 454kg and 350kg, an average loading rate (relatively to their maximum capacity) of 83%, 86% and 91%, a cycle duration of 6h20min, 6h18min and 5h09min, an incineration rate of 63,6kg\/h, 62,6kg\/h and 41,2kg\/h, and a propane consumption rate of 0,17, 0,16 and 0,40 liter of propane per kilogram of dead stock. All three incinerators had the two combustion chambers and the particle emission rate required by Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s regulations, did not emit any smoke or odours during incineration and maintained a temperature of 1000\u00b0C in the gas combustion chamber (where the residence time was around one second). The ashes produced represented 3 to 4% of the incinerated material\u2019s mass. Fissuring of the firebricks and airtightness problems were noted on the \u00c9co-Concept and Br\u00fble-\u00d4-Max incinerators, which would require monitoring of the inner covering durability. Considering the building of a shelter, the addition of a temperature recorder and performing an atmospheric emission test every five years, the incineration costs varied from $0,14\/kg to $0,25\/kg for a farrow-to-finish farm with 600 sows, to over $1,00\/kg for a finisher pig farm of 1000 pigs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
