Arthur A. Boni has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Apparatus for combustion, pollution and chemical process control
    Patent number: 5275553
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system for regulating the efficiency of a combustion process by detecting radiant energy emitted from ash particles entrained in the gas stream exiting the combustion chamber of a boiler or incinerator. The intensity of selected wavelengths of light emitted from the particles is indicative of the temperature of the particles. The change in the intensities of the selected wavelengths of light, and thus of the temperature of the gas stream at the furnace exit, is monitored, and a feedback control mechanism is used to regulate one or more combustion, pollution control, or heat transfer parameters thereby maximizing the thermal efficiency of the combustion process in the boiler or incinerator.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 11, 1992
    Date of Patent: January 4, 1994
    Assignee: PSI Environmental Instruments Corp.
    Inventors: Michael B. Frish, Joseph Morency, Stephen A. Johnson, Arthur A. Boni
