  • Patent number: 9581332
    Abstract: A burner combustion method is employed in which at least two burners (2) are disposed opposite each other in a furnace (1) so as to cause combustion, the method comprising: cyclically changing at least one of a flow rate of a fuel fluid and a flow rate of an oxidant fluid supplied to the respective burners (2) while cyclically changing a concentration of oxygen in the oxidant fluid thereby cyclically changing an oxygen ratio obtained by dividing a supply oxygen amount by a theoretically required oxygen amount, whereby, the burners (2) are made to cause combustion in a cyclical oscillation state, wherein with respect to the cyclical change in an oscillation state of the burners (2), a phase difference is provided between a cyclical change in an oscillation state of at least one burner (2) and cyclical changes in oscillation states of other burners (2).

  • Patent number: 9261276
    Abstract: The present invention provides a burner combustion method for supplying and combusting an oxidant stream and a fuel stream, wherein the oxidant stream is composed of a primary oxidant stream jetted from around the periphery of the fuel stream or from a position near the fuel stream, and a plurality of secondary oxidant streams, and by periodically changing the flow rate of at least one of the primary oxidant stream and the plurality of secondary oxidant streams, and also causing a periodic change in the oxygen concentration within the oxidant stream, causing a periodic change in the oxygen ratio which is calculated by dividing the supplied amount of oxygen, supplied by the oxidant stream, by the theoretically required amount of oxygen, and providing a difference between the periodic changes in the oxygen concentration and the oxygen ratio, the combustion state adopts a periodic oscillating state.

  • Patent number: 9157631
    Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide a method for burning a burner which has NOx reduction effects and has practical value, and a device therefore; the present invention provide A method for burning a burner in a heating furnace including a step of: periodically changing at least one of a flow rate of a fuel fluid and a flow rate of an oxidizing agent fluid which are supplied to the burner while periodically changing an oxygen concentration in the oxidizing agent fluid, thereby an oxygen ratio which is calculated by dividing an amount of oxygen supplied by a theoretical necessary amount of oxygen is periodically changed, and the periodical change of the oxygen ratio is made different from the periodical change of the oxygen concentration to cause combustion in periodically vibrational conditions.

  • Publication number: 20140016428
    Abstract: The present invention includes a kneading chamber (2) which kneads a material to be kneaded (G), a gas introduction part (3) which introduces an inert gas in the chamber (2), a concentration measurement part (4) which measures the oxygen concentration in the chamber (2); an arithmetic operation section (30) which performs operation to make the inside of the chamber (2) achieve the target oxygen concentration; and a control section (31) which controls the part (3) according to the result obtained by the section (30); wherein the section (30) performs operation to set the inside of the chamber (2) to the target oxygen concentration while comparing the oxygen concentration measured during kneading by the part (4) and target oxygen concentration set in advance; and the section (31) controls a purge flow rate and purge time of an inert gas introduced in the kneading chamber (2) from the part (3) based on the operation result, in kneading performed after the operation.

  • Patent number: 8071015
    Abstract: Disclosed is a process of producing a porous metal body containing a metal component which is likely to be oxidized, by which process the amounts of residual carbon and residual oxygen therein are decreased, and by which the performance of the product porous body can be largely promoted. The process for producing a porous metal body by sintering a material of the porous metal body, which material is obtained by coating a slurry containing a metal powder and an organic binder on an organic porous aggregate, comprises a defatting step of treating the material of the porous metal body at a temperature not higher than 650° C.
