20120090890 | RAPIDLY SELF-DRYING RECTIFYING FLAME ROD - An assembly for a rapidly-drying rectifying flame rod, having an insulator sleeve. The assembly may further incorporate a mechanical coupling attaching the flame rod to an end part which in turn may be hermetically coupled to an insulator. The insulator may be hermetically coupled to a conduit which may be hermetically coupled to an elongated tube. A conductor may go through the tube, conduit, insulator and end part. The flame rod may be connected to the conductor via the mechanical coupling and end part. A sheath having sealing and electrical insulating properties may be formed over at least a portion of the components. Hermetic couplings may be made with ordinary blazing or welding. The couplings may instead be made with high temperature brazing or welding which can withstand temperatures equal to or greater than 1500° F. At these temperatures, the sleeve on the flame rod and the sheath may be eliminated. | 04-19-2012 |
20120231399 | FLARE TIP HAVING INTERNAL SPIN VANES - A flare tip for the burning and disposal of combustible waste gases including internal spin vanes is provided. By providing a plurality of internal spin vanes within the waste gas inlet of a flare tip, the efficiency of combustion of waste gas can be increased. | 09-13-2012 |
20130244187 | HIGH EFFICIENCY LOW NOx EMISSION BURNER APPARATUS - A high efficiency low NO | 09-19-2013 |
20140102440 | AERODYNAMIC RADIANT WALL BURNER TIP - A radiant wall burner apparatus. The apparatus includes an inlet and primary fuel tip for introduction of fuel gas and air mixing in a mixing chamber. The fuel and air mixture are subject to a substantially uniform flow area from the point of discharge from a downstream portion of the mixing chamber up to the exit gap of the burner tip. The fuel gas and combustion air mixture terminate through the burner tip at a substantially uniform velocity. The radiant wall burner apparatus and burner tip allow for the substantially uniform velocity of the fuel gas and air mixture, reducing the potential for flashback of the burner tip. | 04-17-2014 |
20150013576 | COKE TREATMENT PROCESS AND SYSTEM TO MINIMIZE NOX EMISSIONS AND MINIMIZE CATALYST VOLUME - A method and a process to treat coke generated from a process application. The method includes the steps of recovering a mixture of coke particles and water or steam removed from at least one process application vessel. The mixture is directed to a cyclonic separator utilizing centrifugal force and gravity. Water is separated from the mixture in the cyclonic separator. Coke particles are separated from the mixture in the cyclonic separator and are directed to a thermal oxidizer. Coke particles are oxidized and gasified in the thermal oxidizer to produce gas and reduced particulate matter. The gas and reduced particulate matter are thereafter directed to a burner in the process application vessel. | 01-15-2015 |
20150015694 | FURNACE VISUALIZATION - Methods, systems, and computer-readable and executable instructions are described herein. One method includes combining a plurality of images of a furnace into a composite image of the furnace, revising the composite image of the furnace to an intensity scaling, restoring a portion of the revised composite image of the furnace; and displaying a view of the restored revised composite image of the furnace to a user. | 01-15-2015 |
20150044618 | ADJUSTABLE AND ROBUST RADIANT WALL BURNER TIP - A radiant wall burner apparatus. The apparatus includes an orifice for the introduction of fuel gas into an elongated mixing conduit for the directional flow and mixing of the fuel gas with combustion air provided through an inlet. The fuel gas and air mixture terminates through an adjustable burner tip. The radiant wall burner apparatus and burner tip allow for a two-leaf, adjustable radiant wall burner tip design that is less susceptible to heat deformation, flashback, and self-destruction, having fewer manufacturing issues, and having the capability to use hydrogen as a fuel source. | 02-12-2015 |
20150099234 | THERMAL RADIATION SHIELD AND COMBUSTION AIR CONTROLLED ENCLOSURE ASSEMBLY FOR A GROUND FLARE - A thermal radiation shield and combustion air controlled enclosure assembly. The assembly encloses a ground flare or flares and includes a plurality of structural supports at an obtuse angle to grade. Panels extend between the structural supports surrounding the ground flare wherein the panels are at an obtuse angle to grade. | 04-09-2015 |
