An oxidizer head assembly includes a head body defining an inlet flange, an outlet flange, and a wall, where the inlet flange, the outlet flange, and the wall define a cavity positioned between the inlet flange and the outlet flange, a plurality of nozzles extending through the cavity, a fuel inlet in communication with the plurality of nozzles, where a fuel passes through the fuel inlet and the plurality of nozzles, a shield gas inlet in communication with the cavity, and a porous diffuser plate extending across the outlet opening, the porous diffuser plate including apertures for the plurality of nozzles and a plurality of pores, where a shield gas passes through the shield gas inlet, through the cavity, and through the plurality of pores of the porous diffuser plate around the plurality of nozzles.

A biomass energy system utilizes an automated biomass distribution system for evenly distributing biomass within a furnace of the biomass energy system. The even distribution of biomass dramatically increases efficiency of the biomass energy system. The automated biomass distribution system includes a control unit, a set of I/P control boxes, and a set of valve assemblies. Each valve assembly includes a pneumatic actuator, a plug and a discharge duct matching the shape of the plug.

A trash burning receptacle is fashioned as a cast iron material of construction with a venting lid, an access door, and a removable tray. The receptacle is configured to be submerged in the earth with a restricting enclosure surrounding it.

An incinerator has a hollow main body with a front wall, a rear wall, a first side wall, a second side wall, a top wall, and a bottom wall. The front wall has a first opening and a second opening formed therein. The second opening is disposed adjacent to the bottom wall between the first opening and the bottom wall. The rear wall has at least one inlet aperture formed adjacent to the bottom wall. The first side wall and the second side wall each have at least one outlet aperture disposed adjacent to the top wall. The incinerator further has a door that is movable between an opened position, whereby waste may be disposed on a grate suspended inside of the main body, and a closed position, whereby the door may cover the first opening.

An automated biomass distribution system employs an air-sweeping nozzle for evenly distributing biomass on a grate of an existing stoker boiler. Such an automated biomass distribution system includes a valve-controlled air pressure source that generates an air jet upstream of the existing stoker boiler and having a first travel path extended downstream towards the existing stoker boiler; an expansion duct in fluid communication with the valve-controlled air pressure source and disposed downstream therefrom; an air-sweeping nozzle in communication with the expansion duct and having a second travel path extended downstream from the expansion duct; and a biomass distributor having a passageway disposed at the second travel path. Advantageously, the air-sweeping nozzle is disposed at the passageway and downstream of the expansion duct. In this manner, the second travel path is disposed downstream from the first travel path.

Briefly, the invention provides an incinerator comprising a housing suspended above the ground. The housing is without a top or bottom, but includes an elongated member supporting the housing and a grate intermediate of the housing and the elongated member. Also provided is a device for aiding combustion reactions. The device includes a vertically disposed stanchion, a housing, a first open end and a second open end. The housing is supported at the second open end by the stanchion. The device also include a grid with a cross section identical to the cross section of the housing. The diameter of the cross section of the grid is less than the diameter of the cross section of the housing and the grid in rotates around the stanchion.
