How to Choose an Industrial Burner
The best burner choice is usually the one that meets process needs with stable control, predictable commissioning, and compliant emissions, not the one with the most features. Use this workflow to narrow options.
1) Define the application
- Boiler, furnace, incinerator, dryer, process heater.
- Geometry constraints, burner mounting, available draft.
- Operating profile: steady load vs frequent cycling.
2) Size the burner correctly
Establish required heat input and turndown across load points. Confirm fuel supply capacity and pressure stability.
3) Select for emissions and efficiency
- Confirm NOx/CO limits and measurement basis.
- Choose standard vs low NOx architecture based on target.
- Plan controls and tuning to maintain efficiency across loads.
