A dual fuel burner system includes a fuel burner housing and a main fuel supply conduit within the fuel burner housing. A main fuel nozzle is positioned proximate to a downstream end of the fuel burner housing and is in fluid communication with the main fuel supply conduit. The main fuel supply conduit is configured to provide 100% of the heat input requirement of the dual fuel burner system. A secondary fuel supply conduit is within the fuel burner housing. The secondary fuel supply conduit is configured to provide 100% of the heat input requirement of the dual fuel burner system. An air circuit is in fluid communication with an outlet of the main fuel nozzle. A direct spark ignitor is positioned proximate to the outlet of the main fuel nozzle.

A combustion system comprising a burner for supplying a mixed flow of fuel and primary air or gas through at least one fuel nozzle to a combustion chamber, a duct in fluid communication with the at least one fuel nozzle for guiding the mixed flow to the at least one fuel nozzle, and a deflector device positioned within the duct upstream of the at least one fuel nozzle to deflect the incoming mixed flow. The deflector device comprises ejection means arranged to eject an auxiliary gas into the duct to deflect the incoming mixed flow in a direction from a center to outer areas of the duct to increase the concentration of the mixed flow in outer areas of the fuel nozzle and decrease the concentration of the mixed flow in the center section of the fuel nozzle.

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.

A burner characterized by being equipped with: a fuel supply nozzle to which a mixed flow of a solid fuel and a solid fuel transport gas is supplied; a flow passage that is arranged on the outside of the fuel supply nozzle and that supplies combustion air separated from the mixed flow; and ammonia supply nozzles which are capable of supplying ammonia on the downstream side of the outlet of the fuel supply nozzle toward a reduction region in which oxygen in the transport gas has been consumed due to ignition of the fuel and the progress of combustion, resulting in a low oxygen concentration. Thus, it is possible to provide a burner capable of burning a mixture of a solid fuel and ammonia, and a combustion device equipped with this burner.

A burner 100 comprising a burner body 110 having a burner chamber with a backing plate 122 and having a burner element received in the burner chamber, the burner element having a plurality of gas nozzles 117 for supplying gas into the burner, the gas nozzles 117 each ending in a tip through which the gas exits and gas nozzle 117, and each gas nozzle being rotatable such that the direction of gas exiting the gas nozzle can be adjusted. The burner has means for rotating the gas nozzles 117 provided on the backing plate and by releasable means for retaining each gas nozzle 117 in a plurality of rotational configurations provided outside the burner chamber. The gas nozzles 117 further comprise first and second parts which are detachable from each other, the first part comprising the tip and the second part being upstream of the first part with respect to the flow of gas into the gas nozzles in use. The burner allows for tuning of gas flow from outside the burner while it is in use.

A burner that includes a primary air or gas duct delimited by an exterior wall and a concentric interior wall of axis X and ducts for radial primary air or gas injection is described. The air or gas duct includes a ring that is rotationally mobile and has axial protrusions constituting distributors which collaborate with the radial primary air ducts arranged on the interior wall and form two passages of different angles in each duct. Rotating the ring making it possible to vary the angle of injection of the radial primary air. Thus, the regulation is situated just at the tip of the burner, in the region of the outlet of the primary air into the kiln, by modifying the outlet angle of the radial component for fixed section, thereby greatly simplifying the regulating of the burner.

A burner characterized by being equipped with: a fuel supply nozzle to which a mixed flow of a solid fuel and a solid fuel transport gas is supplied; a flow passage that is arranged on the outside of the fuel supply nozzle and that supplies combustion air separated from the mixed flow; and ammonia supply nozzles which are capable of supplying ammonia on the downstream side of the outlet of the fuel supply nozzle toward a reduction region in which oxygen in the transport gas has been consumed due to ignition of the fuel and the progress of combustion, resulting in a low oxygen concentration. Thus, it is possible to provide a burner capable of burning a mixture of a solid fuel and ammonia, and a combustion device equipped with this burner.

A burner includes an oxidant feed passage, a fuel feed passage surrounding the oxidant feed passage, an air feed surrounding the fuel feed passage, a movable air flow diverter and, optionally, a flame nozzle. The movable air flow diverter and/or flame nozzle are independently configured to create one or a plurality of gas recirculation regions adjacent the downstream tip of the burner to improve the mixing and reaction of the fuel and oxidant, and overall combustion process efficiency. A related furnace and method for generating a stable flame with the burner are also provided.

Provided is a combustion device including: a burner that includes an ammonia injection nozzle having an injection port that faces an inner space of a furnace; and an adjustment structure that adjusts a separation distance between the injection port and the inner space.

An auxiliary burner for an electric furnace capable of increasing and homogenizing the heating effect of iron scrap by suitably and efficiently burning solid fuel along with gas fuel. Auxiliary burner 100 for an electric furnace comprises a solid fuel injection tube 1, a gas fuel injection tube 2, and a combustion-supporting gas injection tube 3 in the stated order from the center side, all arranged coaxially, and is characterized in that: a combustion-supporting gas flow path 30 of the 10 combustion-supporting gas injection tube 3 is provided with a plurality of swirl vanes 4 for swirling the combustion-supporting gas, and the angle θ formed between the swirl vanes 4 and the burner axis is 5° or more and 45° or less.
