20110127702 | DYNAMIC CONTROL OF LANCE UTILIZING COUNTERFLOW FLUIDIC TECHNIQUES - A jet of gas injected from a lance is fluidically deviated with a gas flowing in either the same or opposite direction as the jet of gas. The gas used to fluidically deviate the jet is the same as or different from the gas in the jet. | 06-02-2011 |
20110127703 | DYNAMIC LANCES UTILIZING FLUIDIC TECHNIQUES - A jet of gas injected from a lance is fluidically deviated with a gas flowing in either the same or opposite direction as the jet of gas. The gas used to fluidically deviate the jet is the same as or different from the gas in the jet. | 06-02-2011 |
20120006157 | METHOD FOR MELTING A SOLID CHARGE - A simple, compact burner achieves a more optimal melting of a solid charge followed by performance of combustion under distributed combustion conditions. The burner achieves this by fluidically bending the flame towards the solid charge during a melting phase with an actuating jet of oxidant, redirecting the flame in a direction away from the charge, and staging injection of oxidant among primary and secondary portions during a distributed combustion phase. | 01-12-2012 |
20120009531 | DISTRIBUTED COMBUSTION PROCESS AND BURNER - During a heating phase, injection of a jet of fuel and oxidant (fuel annularly enshrouding oxidant or oxidant annularly enshrouding fuel) from a fuel-oxidant nozzle is combusted in a combustion space. During a transition from the heating phase to a distributed combustion phase, an amount of a secondary portion of either the fuel or oxidant is injected as a jet into the combustion space while the primary portion of that same reactant from the fuel-oxidant nozzle is decreased. At some point during the transition phase, a jet of actuating fluid is injected at an angle towards the jet of reactants from the fuel-oxidant nozzle and/or towards the jet of the secondary portion of reactant. The jet of primary portions of reactants and/or secondary portion of reactant is caused to be bent/deviated towards the other of the two jets. The staging of the secondary portion of reactant is increased until a desired degrees of staging and commencement of a distributed combustion phase are achieved. | 01-12-2012 |

20120171629 | Flameless Combustion Burner - A burner has a fuel/oxidant nozzles and a pair of dynamical lances spaced on either side thereof that inject a jet of fuel and primary oxidant along a fuel injection axis, and jets of secondary oxidant, respectively. Jets of actuating fluid impinge against the jets of secondary oxidant to fluidically angle the jets of secondary oxidant away from the fuel injection axis. The action of the angling away together with staging of the oxidant between primary and secondary oxidant injections allows achievement of distributed combustion conditions. | 07-05-2012 |
20130082210 | Syngas Production Using Scrap Tire Gasification - A first carbon containing substance, which may be scrap tires, is introduced to pyrolitic reactor. The pyrolitic reactor produces at least a tar/char stream and a pyrolysis oil stream. Pyrolysis oil stream may also be combined with hydrogen stream and hydrotreated to produce synthetic diesel, synthetic jet fuel, or synthetic gasoline. At least a portion of hydrogen/carbon monoxide stream may be separated to provide hydrogen stream. An oxidant containing first gas may be oxygen or an oxygen rich stream. Gasification reactor may be a fluidized bed reactor, moving bed reactor, double fired reactor, entrained bed reactor or molten bath reactor. Pyrolitic reactor and gasification reactor may be thermally linked, with the exothermic pyrolitic reactor providing at least a portion of the heat required by endothermic gasification reactor. | 04-04-2013 |
