The method of low NOx Combustion by Mixing Water was developed in order to reduce NOx emission and smoke in incinerators and oil-fired boilers with oil-pressure atomizing burners.
This technique brought a simpler, smaller, more economical and more practical system than known emulsion-fuel combustion method.
The principle of this technique is based on making combustion immediately after mixing liquid fuel with water at the tip of the nozzle by utilizing the swirling power of high pressure atomization.
The application of this technique for oil-fired boilers is expected to be popularized in near future, as a way of environmental protection in big cities.
