- Description
- Please forward any questions and/or responses/offers to CPT Robert Mayhue at robert.w.mayhue2.mil@mail.mil The specifications for the prescribed fire ignition gel pump needs to be at minimum: 1) 55 gallon tank 2) self-contained spill protection 3) gasoline engine 4) utilize a gel type liquid ignitor 5) ability to propel ignition gel a minimum of 25 feet This ignition system is critical to the reclamation of many mismanaged forest stands. Many forest stands have been fire excluded for such time that thick borders of impenetrable vegetation have taken over. Traditional methods of prescribed fire ignition (i.e. drip torch) have proven unsuccessful in getting fire pushed into these areas. A gel pump system will allow us to introduce fire farther into the stand. Also, the gel type fuel will burn off much slower than traditional drip torch fuel allowing more residence time on individual stems thus increasing efficiency of man hours and total percent consumption of burned stands.
