An incinerator for burning combustible materials, especially waste materials, and for generating hot gases for use in processes outside the incinerator, includes a cylindrical combustion chamber having closed end walls and a generally tangential opening in the side wall extending along a major portion of the chamber length for admitting combustible materials and air in a sheet-like stream around the chamber wall. A tapered, or frusto-conical gas collector tube mounted coaxially within the combustion chamber extends through one end wall and terminates in an open end spaced from the combustion chamber. The collector tube has a plurality of openings to permit combustion gases to enter and flow out of the combustion chamber through the open end. A substantially cylindrical jacket surrounding the combustion chamber has an air inlet at one end and a venturi-like outlet section at the other end, with the throat of the venturi surrounding the collector tube open end so that cooling air flowing through the jacket over the external surface of the combustion chamber mixes with the combustion gases.
