Disclosed are an oxygen-enriched acid gas incinerator burner. A refractory lining is arranged on an inner wall of a housing. A rear part of an inner cavity of the housing is connected to a throat opening. A pure oxygen spray gun, an acid gas spray gun, and a fuel gas spray gun are arranged in a pipe-in-pipe structure from outside to inside. A rear part of the pure oxygen spray gun is fixed within the inner cavity. A front part of the acid gas spray gun is fixed through a flange at an outer end of the pure oxygen spray gun. A front part of the fuel gas spray gun is fixed through a flange at an outer end of the acid gas spray gun. A combustion-supporting air inlet is formed on the housing, and a lower part thereof is communicated with a gas collection chamber.

A method for remediating a contaminated porous matrix including selecting the type and quantity of organic fuel to create a smolderable mixture of the organic fuel and contaminated porous matrix, and controlling the rate of oxidant addition to manipulate the relative proportions of oxidative breakdown products, non-oxidative breakdown products, and non-destructive remediation processes. The method further involves collecting the volatilized contaminant, and any gaseous breakdown products of the contaminant.

A process for the incineration of activated coal-supported PGM catalysts, the process comprising a joint incineration of a multilayer arrangement, wherein the multilayer arrangement includes (i) a top layer of particulate activated coal-supported PGM catalyst, (ii) a layer of coarse charcoal located beneath said top layer and, optionally, (iii) a layer of particulate coke located beneath the charcoal layer, and wherein an upward flow of oxidizing gas is homogeneously passed through said multilayer arrangement during the incineration.

A multiphase burner for flaring gaseous/liquid combustible mixtures is disclosed. The burner may include a hollow base with an inlet for receiving the combustible gas/liquid mixture as well as a distal end that may be coupled to or that forms a nozzle cap. The nozzle cap may form as first outlet. The base may be coupled to a central body and a hollow bushing that encircles at least part of the central body. The base may form a mouth disposed between the inlet and the central body. The mouth may be in communication with a first passage that extends from the mouth to the first outlet and between the bushing and the distal end of the base. The mouth may be in communication with a second passage that extends from the mouth to the second outlet and between the bushing and central body.

A combustion apparatus is provided. The combustion apparatus includes a fuel reservoir storing fuel therein, and a main body connected to the fuel reservoir by a flexible tube. The main body receives fuel from the fuel reservoir and combusts the fuel therein. The main body is partitioned into an upper space and a lower space by a partition plate. The main body includes a combustor that is provided in the upper space and combusts fuel supplied from the fuel reservoir, a blower that is provided in the lower space to supply air to the combustor, and a heating unit that is removably coupled to the combustor and completely combusts air incompletely combusted in the combustor. The combustion apparatus completely combusts liquefied animal and vegetable oil, thus reducing a tar generation rate.

An apparatus and method are provided for reducing methane emissions from ruminant animals by combusting methane gas extracted from the rumen. The system comprises a conduit configured to transport methane from the animal's rumen to a combustion module mounted externally or implanted partially or fully in a subdorsal position. The combustion module includes a pressure-activated valve, air intake, ignition system, and combustion chamber enclosed by a heat-absorbing roof structure. A control unit monitors internal gas pressure and triggers a spark ignition circuit when combustion conditions are satisfied. An upward-facing camera inhibits ignition if flammable obstructions are detected above the module. A water-filled thermal buffer integrated into the chamber roof moderates exhaust temperature, reducing wildfire risk. Power is supplied by a solar panel and rechargeable battery. The system intermittently converts methane into carbon dioxide and water vapor, significantly mitigating the greenhouse gas impact of enteric fermentation in ruminant livestock.
