  • Publication number: 20170198902
    Abstract: A burner apparatus for a fired-heater system and a method of burner operation wherein the burner fuel is ejected outside of the burner wall from a surrounding fuel discharge ring, or from a lateral elongate ejection bar in the case of a flat flame burner, to a combustion zone projecting from the forward end of burner wall. The burner apparatus and method reduce NOx production by a combination of enhanced internal flue gas recirculation and staged fuel operation.

  • Patent number: 9593848
    Abstract: A burner apparatus for a furnace system and a method of burner operation wherein a non-symmetrical positioning of one combustion fuel discharge tip or a grouping of fuel discharge tips within the burner wall produces side-by-side lean and fuel rich combustion stage zones and also produces internal flue gas recirculation.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9222668
    Abstract: A burner apparatus for a furnace system and a method of burner operation. The burner has a series of fuel ejection structures which at least partially surround the burner wall for ejecting fuel into a combustion region projecting from the forward end of the burner wall. The ejection structures preferably eject fuel outside of the burner wall at alternating angles. Further, the burner apparatus preferably includes at least one additional series of fuel ejection structures which is spaced radially outward from the first series of ejection structures.
