Low NOx without external FGR! The Johnston FIR burner reduces
emissions of NOx and CO from natural gas combustion. The burner
can reach levels of less than 10 PPMv NOx and <50 PPMv
CO at design turndown with no decrease in efficiency. To maintain
the burner/boiler thermal efficiency, the burner is setup
to operate at between 3 to 4% O2 over the complete operating
range. This minimizes dry gas losses and maximizes burner
performance.
The patented FIR Burner through Gas Technology Institute,
Chicago, IL, combines staged, premixed combustion with forced
internal flue gas recirculation to minimize the formation
of both thermal and prompt NOx. The unique burner design provides
excellent flame retention for stable combustion at the sub
9 PPM NOx levels. The low levels if NOx and CO will meet the
stringent emission requirements found in California, Houston
and other non-attainment zones.
Using
the FIR burner, boilers can operate at low excess air levels
without external FGR, resulting in higher thermal efficiencies
than are achievable with competing technologies. The burners
are non-proprietary, single point positioning controls to
reduce cost and downtime.
The burners
also meet CSD-1, FM, IRI and NFPA-85 approval codes.
