A pellet hopper for use in a pellet grill includes a first bottom panel, a second bottom panel, and a third bottom panel. Each bottom panel has an inner edge that partially defines a pellet evacuation opening. The first, second, and third bottom panels form respective first, second, and third nonzero angles relative to a horizontal plane. In this way, each bottom panel tilts downward toward the pellet evacuation opening.

A fuel system for a gas turbine engine includes a main fuel pump generating a main fuel flow into a main fuel passage and a secondary pump generating a secondary fuel flow into a secondary flow passage. A first control valve is disposed in a passage between the main fuel passage and the secondary flow passage. The first control valve selectively directs an excess portion of the main fuel flow to the secondary flow passage to provide at least a portion of the secondary fuel flow.

A boiler for co-firing municipal solid waste and short timber for cultivating fungus includes a boiler chamber and fire grate, where the boiler chamber comprises a furnace, a reburning chamber and a third flue, a front arch and a rear arch are arranged on a lower portion of the furnace and located above the fire grate, and a short timber for cultivating fungus feeding device is arranged on a lower portion of a front wall of the furnace. The short timber for cultivating fungus feeding device includes a star-shaped feeding machine and a hopper, a skin expansion joint is arranged between the star-shaped feeding machine and the hopper, and an air pipe is arranged on the hopper. A layer of a plurality of boiler internal desulfurization desulfurization nozzles and two layers of a plurality of Polymer Non-Catalytic Reduction denitration nozzles are arranged in a height direction of the furnace.

A simultaneous reaction system and method for organic material pyrolysis and combustion. The system comprises a time sharing reactor for pyrolysis and combustion, a feeder, a recovery apparatus for pyrolysis volatility products and a flue gas purifier. The whole process mainly consists of two time sharing stages of pyrolysis and combustion. The system has the advantages of cascade utilization of energy, short time of pyrolysis reaction and high efficiency of heat transfer.

An assembly for reducing excess piping pressure in a fluid distribution system. The assembly includes a fluid regulator including a body defining an inlet, an outlet, and a fluid passageway between the inlet and the outlet, a first control element movable relative to a valve seat in the fluid passageway to control fluid flow therethrough, a valve stem coupled to the first control element, and an actuator assembly operatively coupled to the valve stem to control a position of the first control element. The assembly also includes a solenoid valve coupled to the fluid regulator at a position upstream of the outlet, the solenoid valve adapted to receive a control signal indicative of zero demand downstream of the fluid regulator, and having a second control element that is movable, responsive to the control signal, from a first position to a second position to reduce fluid flowing through the fluid passageway.

A feed device of a pyrolysis apparatus and a feed method through which material processed in the pyrolysis apparatus, such as plastic and/or rubber waste, can be fed into the pyrolysis apparatus. In the feed device there is a feed opening for the material to be processed, a feed chamber, closing members in conjunction with the feed chamber and a discharge opening, through which the material to be processed can be conveyed to the pyrolysis apparatus's pyrolysis chamber. A vacuum pump has been adjoined in conjunction with the feed device's feed chamber to achieve a vacuum or sufficient underpressure in the feed chamber after the material to be processed has been fed into the feed chamber and the feed chamber's closing members have been closed. After the closing member of the feed chamber's discharge opening has been opened, the material to be processed, from which the oxygen harmful to the pyrolysis process has been removed, is conveyed into the pyrolysis chamber.
