Objective
This project was concerned with the development of a gasburner for use in heating of buidings, typically in the power range 5 - 7,000 kW. The concept was to produce a super LOW-NOX gasburner meeting European standards 676 and 90/396/EWG. The specific aspect of this LOW-NOX gasburner is the technique of burning/combustion, the surface-burning and the infra-red-radiation of the ceramic gas-burner-head, which produces a performance, with low emissions, very low noise-value and with a high degree of efficiency.
The aims of the project included:
- improvement of the structure of the ceramic and analyse of the problem factors
- development of a power reduction cycle, which drastically reduces the consumption of power of this burner.
- adaptation of this system to meet gas regulations for boiler modules to build power/reducing/super-LOW-NOX-burner/boiler-units.
The key project development was of a ceramic gas-burner-head, now known as 'SuperMagma' for surface-burning and infra-red-radiation. This involved testing and optimisation of prototypes in the field; market testing; patent protection; and technology transfer to different countries and markets in and outside Europe. The success of this project has the potential for a very positive impact on the environment. There was also the prospect of licence fee income from technology transfer out of Europe, e.g. to the USA.
