Rapid Mix Burner (RMB™)
Get Ultra-Low Emissions From
Natural Gas-Firing Boilers.
Initially, ultra-low NOx levels could only be achieved with SCRs — and
hefty price tags. But for the past two decades, the RMB system has
been offering a reliable, more affordable solution. With its revolutionary
rapid-mix technology, the Rapid Mix Burner has become a proven
alternative to the catalytic control of NOx emissions, cutting both
costs and space requirements.
Breakthrough Thinking for Advanced Performance
The innovative technology in the RMB system is a result of “startover” thinking on how to avoid the fundamental conditions for
NOx formation:
++ Fuel-rich regions with their potential for prompt NOx formation
++ Higher flame temperatures that produce thermal NOx
Our solution: a radically different gaseous injection and
mixing system that utilizes:
++ Rapid mixing of combustion air and fuel gas prior
to the ignition point
++ Burner geometry that produces an
extremely stable flame
++ The introduction of flue gas recirculation
(FGR) to dramatically reduce peak
flame temperatures
