Product Overview

The 110V SmartAsh Portable Incinerator by Elastec is an innovative cyclonic barrel burner that uses forced air to create a whirlwind of fire and intense heat inside a standard 55-gallon steel drum (not included). It burns approved non-hazardous refuse with minimal smoke, minimal odor, and only 1–3% ash residue — making it the ideal waste destruction solution for remote locations where conventional waste disposal services are unavailable.

Operating on standard 120V power, the SmartAsh is designed for U.S. domestic use at construction sites, oil drilling operations, military installations, disaster relief areas, truck stops, campsites, and any remote location with standard electrical power. Simply load the drum 2/3 full, light the refuse with newspaper, clamp on the lid, and adjust the airflow — the SmartAsh creates a cyclonic whirlwind of fire reaching 1,000–1,400°F, efficiently reducing waste volumes on-site at an average rate of 50 lbs per hour.

The SmartAsh burns soiled absorbent materials (pads, pillows, socks, booms), paper waste, used oil filters, wood, food waste, oily rags, and waste oil (with optional OilAway attachment). It meets EPA requirements for burning non-hazardous refuse under EPA Regulation 40 CFR Part 60 (Standards of Performance), exempted under section 60.2555. Constructed with a 304 stainless steel lid, 330 stainless steel spark screen, and powder-coated tubular steel frame with brass-bearing wheels for easy mobility.

Warning: Do NOT incinerate plastics, or refuse containing oils with a flash point below 100°F (flammable Class 1 liquids such as alcohol and gasoline). Always contact your local regulatory authority before use.

Expert Insights

The SmartAsh is purpose-built for remote locations where trash pickup isn't available — think mining camps, oil drilling sites, military forward operating bases, island resorts, and disaster relief areas. At 50 lbs/hr burn rate with only 3% ash left behind, it dramatically reduces waste volume while staying EPA compliant. A 55-gallon open-head steel drum is required but NOT included. We recommend keeping spare drums on hand for continuous operation. The drum will eventually wear out from the intense heat (1,000–1,400°F) and should be replaced when the bottom shows signs of burn-through. Optional accessories expand its capability significantly: the OilAway attachment lets you burn waste oil at up to 6 gallons/hr, the SmartHeat unit redirects combustion heat into a building for free heating, and the Document Burner insert ensures complete destruction of sensitive papers. The Easy-Feed Cartridge allows you to add refuse while the unit is running. Do NOT burn plastics or any liquid with a flash point below 100°F (Class 1 flammable liquids like gasoline or alcohol). Always check with your local fire marshal or regulatory authority before operating. The SmartAsh ships via UPS without the drum and cannot ship to Alaska.
