Will let you know how a old skip with a few holes low down gets on soon enough as got a lot of thorn to burn on a sssi and a skip on blocks seems to be English nature's preferred idea.

Thats sounds more like a captive fire, than an air burner. Steve Bullman posted pic's of a steel trailer that one of the contractors he worked for uses, it avoided ground damage.

Guess so, was thinking of welding a pipe along the bottom with 12mm holes drilled in and sitting the back pack blower at the end to add a bit more air to the mix and speed up the burn to shift more stuff.

The inner container would go all shapes and sizes then oxidise to nothing

 

Once the inner skip was sacrificed I wonder how long the concrete would last?

 

I once used this method to line a chimney. I used galvanised spiral tube down the stone flue and filled the gap with vermiculite concrete, the tube did corrode away, but the concrete remained.

Not quite sure on the science of a air curtain burner but that the temperatures of the burn are so high that there is virtually no smoke pollution,good for site clearance,but if they were that good I would of thought we would have seen more of them.

 

Expensive hire and haulage, they also dont burn as much per hour as advertised and you still need a burn license. The plus side is no smoke ( the bit that matters to us on here) and they are really efficient at getting rid of dry demolition timber in places like London where tip charges are mental.
