Self-Recuperative Burner

Bloom Engineering is the leading supplier of high temperature industrial burners and associated combustion equipment. The company has extensive experience in the steel, aluminum and forge industries and also provides combustion equipment for many other applications.

The new Bloom Type “FL” Low NOx recuperative radiant tube burner (RRTB)1 operates at much higher efficiencies than conventional RRTB. In addition, NOx levels produced are substantially lower. A conventional burner has NOx in the range of 0.25 to 0.35 #/MM Btu. The Bloom Type “FL” has NOx values as low as 0.06 #/MM Btu. These values are with 2% O2 in the exhaust and firing natural gas with an average tube temperature of 1900°F (1038°C).

Main benefits of the FL Self-Recuperative Burner:

     - Very high efficiency – as much as 75% (LHV)
     - Quiet stable operation
     - Uniform tube temperature
     - Counter flow recuperator for high efficiency
     - Internal combustion air vitiation for low NOx operation
     - Suitable for 6”(150 mm) through 8” (200 mm) and larger I.D. ‘U’ tubes or ‘W’ tubes
