Abstract: A multi-fueled impulse initiator that includes a fuel source equipped with a control valve, an air source equipped with a control valve, a removable air flow insert having opposing inlet and outlet faces, an air expansion chamber fluidly connected to both the air source and the inlet face of the removable air flow insert, and an igniter assembly having a sparking tip. The removable air flow insert includes channels traversing from the inlet face to the outlet face of the air flow insert.

Abstract: A multi-autoclave lateral conversion module includes a central mixing process pipe having first and second terminal ends, a heating unit providing heated air at the first terminal end of the central mixing process pipe, two or more gas injection units connected to opposing sides of the central mixing process pipe at a first addition point located between the first and the second terminal ends, and each gas injection unit receiving the process discharge gas from an autoclave unit. The process discharge gas is transmitted from an autoclave unit through the gas injection unit into the central mixing process pipe where it mixes with the process discharge gas from the other autoclave unit, and then the mixed process gases are converted. Process units other than autoclaves can also utilize the module and method provided.
