Abstract
The present invention relates to installations for supplying the burners of boilers with an emulsion of fuel, water and if desired soluble oil, intended to ensure the elimination of 95% of the solid unburnt material in the combustion gases of boilers and hot air generators and to eliminate the liquid residues by incineration. The installation includes a reserve tank fed by an electrovalve controlled by a level-electrode provided in the tank so as to maintain a constant level of liquid, a pump, an emulsifying device and at least one burner, together with a regulating valve acting on the flow of liquid to be treated in dependence on the temperature of the mixture after its passage through the emulsifier, this valve being mounted between the pump and the emulsifier.
Claims4
An installation for burning emulsions of the water-fuel type, said installation comprising:
- a reserve tank;
- means for supplying water to said reserve tank;
- at least one burner;
- a conduit extending between said reserve tank and said burner;
- at least one pump means in said conduit for pumping water from said reserve tank to said burner;
- means for supplying fuel to said water in said conduit at a position between said pump means and said burner;
- emulsifier means, positioned between said fuel supplying means and said burner, for forming an emulsion of said fuel and water;
- temperature measuring means, positioned between said emulsifier means and said burner, for measuring the temperature of said emulsion after discharge thereof from said emulsifier means;
- and
- regulating valve means, positioned between said pump means and said fuel supplying means and controlled by said temperature measuring means, for controlling the amount of water passed to said emulsifier means as a function of the temperature of said emulsion after discharge thereof from said emulsifier means.
