A supercritical CO.sub.2 boiler capable of realizing uniform combustion, corrosion resistance and coking resistance, and a boiler system are provided. The supercritical CO.sub.2 boiler includes a main combustion chamber, an upper furnace, a furnace arch and a flue, wherein a cross section of the main combustion chamber is circular or oval, or is of an N-sided shape, where N>4; at least four burner groups are disposed on the main combustion chamber, each group of burner nozzles corresponding to each burner group includes a recirculating air nozzle, a primary air nozzle and a secondary air nozzle; lateral recirculating air nozzles symmetrically distributed are respectively disposed at two sides of the primary air nozzle, the recirculating air nozzle and the lateral recirculating air nozzle are configured to feed recirculating flue gas or a mixed gas of the recirculating flue gas and secondary air into the main combustion chamber.

A burner supporting primary and secondary combustion reactions may include a primary combustion reaction actuator configured to select a location of the secondary combustion reaction. A burner may include a lifted flame holder structure configured to support a secondary combustion reaction above a partial premixing region. The secondary flame support location may be selected as a function of a turndown parameter. Selection logic may be of arbitrary complexity.

Provided are a gas turbine combustor and a gas turbine, with which the amount of NOx exhaust emissions from a diffuse combustion-type duct burner can be reduced. A duct burner is provided with cylindrical fuel injection nozzles and air holes. The fuel injection nozzles are supported by an outside casing along eight axial centers included within a plane orthogonal to a center axis and arranged at equidistant intervals (45-degree intervals) in the circumferential direction. Sets of eight fuel injection nozzles are respectively constituted as single fuel injection nozzle rows, four fuel injection nozzle rows being arrayed at prescribed spacing along a direction of a center axis. The angular positions of the fuel injection nozzles are arrayed so as to be shifted by a half-pitch angle in opposing rows.

Systems and methods are disclosed that may include providing a wellhead gas burner to burn wellhead gas produced from a wellhead to heat water and/or other chemicals used in hydrocarbon production and/or well completion processes, including, but not limited to hydraulic fracturing (fracking). The wellhead gas burner may include a pressure regulator and an expansion chamber that permit the wellhead gas burner to continuously operate and accommodate wellhead gas pressure fluctuations. The wellhead gas burner may also be configured as a primary heat source and integrated with a traditional propane/diesel gas burner system configured as a supplemental heat source. The wellhead gas burner may also be mounted to a mobile superheater truck.

A high efficiency heating apparatus for heating fluids and cooking mediums, such as oil or shortening within a fryer, includes a natural draft (non powered) combustion chamber that is affixed to an exterior surface of a fry tank.
