One or more embodiments of a burner panel for a metallurgical furnace is described herein. The burner panel has a body having a top surface, a bottom surface, a left surface, a right surface, and a front surface surrounding an interior burner area. A spray-cool system disposed in the interior area. A burner tube at least partially disposed in the interior burner area and extends into the front surface. The burner tube is configured to accept a burner.

An apparatus and method that enables a single person to remove and replace a part, for example a burner housing, from an industrial piece of equipment such as oilfield equipment. A base of the apparatus attaches, either removeably or permanently, to a portion of the equipment such as an exhaust stack, that is above the part. The apparatus has a plurality of arms which swing out from the base, including a beam which is rotated to be aligned with the part. Straps attached to the beam are tightened around the part, and the arms are then extended to remove the part from the equipment.

Provided is a water heater including a burner that receives a supply of combustion air from a fan, a heat exchanger having a heat transfer tube, and a combustion chamber case in which a combustion chamber of the burner is formed in the interior thereof and which is to be capable of guiding combustion gas generated by the burner to the heat exchanger. The water heater further includes a unit case that surrounds the combustion chamber case, and a region on the outside of the combustion chamber case within the unit case serves as an air pressure chamber having a higher pressure than the combustion chamber. Thus, combustion gas leakage to the outside can be prevented or suppressed appropriately by means of a simple configuration.

The invention relates to a partial oxidation reactor (POX reactor) having a warm-up burner for producing synthesis gas by partial oxidation of fluid carbon-containing fuels in the presence of an oxygen-containing oxidant and to a process for startup of the partial oxidation reactor According to the invention the preheating of the partial oxidation reactor is carried out via a dedicated warm-up burner which is introduced via one of the media channels of the POX burner without any need to deinstall the entire POX burner.

Generally described, a heating device, or heating tube, includes a combustive fluid inlet, respectively a combustible fluid inlet, is connected to a combustion head via a first pipe, respectively a second pipe, the second pipe being housed at least partially in the first pipe. In this heating device, the combustion head is distant of at least 50 cm from the combustible fluid inlet, which enables to create a “cold zone” between the two. The first and the second pipes enable to bring the combustible fluid and the combustive fluid separately to the combustion head, even if the latter is remote by at least 50 cm from the combustible fluid and combustive fluid inlets.
