How do I use a trench burner where the water table is high and its difficult to maintain a pit?
Build a hill or berm from good, if possible, clay-like material on the surface and then dig a pit into the hill, staying above the groundwater table. The unit must be placed on a dirt platform level with the top of the berm. The retractable carrier pipe cannot be positioned at an angle as it is rigid. It is important to position the machine such that the manifold will provide a properly angled air curtain over the pit.
