Update on ABB C-E's RSFC{trademark} low NO{sub x} wall burner technology
ABB C-E Services Inc. describes the RSFC{trademark} (Radically Stratified Flame Core) burner as an innovative low NO{sub x} solution for application to utility and industrial power boilers. A brief development history is reviewed, from the burner concept origin and fundamental research at M.I.T.'s Combustion Laboratory through full scale field demonstration of the technology in natural gas, oil, and pulverized coal applications. Current commercial status of the burner is covered in review of active projects where the RSFC{trademark} burner has been retrofit to non-OEM boiler designs. A discussion is offered outlining hardware design, site specific erection requirements, and emissions and operating performance characteristics of several commercial installations. Unique solutions to site specific customer requirements are also presented.
