Contraband Incinerators Help Law Enforcement Dispose of Mountains of Contraband Quickly, Safely, and Cost-Effectively

Across one northern state, law enforcement officers impound growing quantities of contraband, including illegal drugs and drug paraphernalia. In addition, evidence is approved for disposal and citizens turn in unused prescription medications. Their state’s law enforcement officials needed safe, convenient, and cost-effective disposal to manage their growing volume of contraband.

Before: evidence bags of meth, cannabis, opioids, bloody clothing, etc.

Law enforcement officials installed cost-effective Firelake P-16 incinerators in the north, west, and eastern regions of the state. Law enforcement officers all over the state are now within reasonable driving distance of a contraband incinerator.
Cost-effective. Their law enforcement agencies manage their budgets carefully. They considered both the initial and ongoing costs.

Firelake P-16 incinerators met or exceeded their requirements:

Budget-friendly to purchase
Installation costs were nominal
Operating costs are the lowest in the industry
Ongoing maintenance is minimal, and their existing staff can easily do it

Quick and easy. Two officers can quickly load a pallet of contraband into the incinerator in just minutes. One push of a button starts the incineration cycle, and then the officers can be on their way. The incinerator automatically maintains the correct temperature throughout incineration. In an hour or two, the incinerator automatically shuts off. Because the contents are now inert, a maintenance employee can remove the inert ash. It takes just a few minutes to sweep the ash into an ordinary garbage bag for disposal in their garbage dumpster.

Effective. Organic contraband becomes a small pile of sterile, inert ash, reduced in weight and volume by over 90%. Non-organic contraband is harmless.

Dual-custody compliant. Compliant with agency regulations, all their units require dual-custody to operate, protecting officers and their agencies.

Good neighbors. No smell and no smoke. Firelake’s standard P-16 incinerator is fully compliant with many local and state emissions regulations – pleasing even the most discerning citizens. Regulations vary, Firekale builds each unit to order, to ensure it meets applicable regulations.
