A flame arrester/burner assembly with a multifarious arrester element for preventing deflagrations and extended endurance burning time (FABA-XT). The multifarious element flame arrester includes a pipe body having a first end and a second end, a first arrester element positioned within the pipe body adjacent the top end; a third arrester element adjacent the bottom end; and, a second arrester element positioned in the pipe body between the first arrester element and the second arrester element. The first, second, and/or third arrester elements may be of the same design or disparate designs. The FABA-XT of the present disclosure is an end-of-line burner element for use in VOC-Vapor Destruction Systems.

Various disclosed embodiments include combined heating and power modules and combined heat and power devices. In an illustrative embodiment, a combined heat and power device includes a heating system including: at least one burner; at least one igniter configured to ignite the at least one burner; a fluid motivator assembly including an electrically powered prime mover; and a heat exchanger fluidly couplable to the fluid motivator assembly. At least one thermophotovoltaic converter has a photon emitter and at least one photovoltaic cell, the photon emitter being thermally couplable to the at least one burner, the at least one photovoltaic cell being thermally couplable to the heat exchanger.

A combustion device with heat dissipating design includes a burner apparatus and a shield apparatus. The burner apparatus includes a fuel reservoir which has a top defining an opening. The shield apparatus defines a space and the burner apparatus is disposed within the space. The shield apparatus has a bottom and the opening is at a first height in a vertical direction from the bottom. The shield apparatus defines a first through hole extending therethrough and communicating the space and the outside of the shield apparatus and the first through hole is at a second height in the vertical direction from the bottom. The second height is less than the first height.

Systems, methods, and devices are provided herein for burners. In one aspect, a burner is provided comprising at least one air pipe; at least one fuel pipe; a plurality of groups of mixing units disposed at a downstream end of the burner, wherein each of the plurality of groups of mixing units is arranged coaxially and adjacent to one another, and each group of mixing units comprises at least one fuel channel connected to the at least one fuel pipe and at least one air channel connected to the at least one air pipe, wherein an outlet of the at least one fuel channel and an outlet of the at least one air channel are angled at a certain degree relative to one another such that the fuel flowing out of the outlet of the at least one fuel channel is mixed with the air flowing out of the outlet of the at least one air channel, thereby achieving multiple-stage mixing of the air and fuel.

A well test burner system includes a plurality of burner nozzles, each including an air valve and a well product valve movable between an open position, where air and a well product are allowed to circulate through the burner nozzle to discharge an air/well product mixture, and a closed position, where the air and the well product are prevented from circulating through the burner nozzle. One or more actuation devices are operatively coupled to the air valve and the well product valve to move the air valve and the well product valve between the open and closed positions.

A burner for producing synthesis gas by partial oxidation of liquid or gaseous, carbon-containing fuels in the presence of an oxygen-containing oxidant and a moderator, which burner can be operated uncooled, i.e. without a fluid coolant being passed through the burner, is proposed. Steam or carbon dioxide or else mixtures of these materials are used as moderator. This is achieved by the feed channels being configured so that mixing of the fuel, the moderator and the oxidant occurs only outside the burner.
