20110041740 - Recuperative combustion system: The methods and systems described herein relate to a recuperative combustion system that recuperates energy from fuel combustion that would otherwise be lost. The recuperative combustion system minimizes or eliminates the need for an air separator unit through the use of a clean water splitter section, consisting of a thermochemical... Agent: Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough LLP Floor 30, Suite 3000

20110036279 - Nox reduction control system for boilers: A bias function that allows a boiler operator to manually increase or decrease the flow of ammonia in order to vary the amount of NOx reduction is included and can be used as an alternate to automatic operation, thus allowing an operator to dictate the amount of ammonia to be... Agent: Nationwide Boiler Incorporated C/o Michele Tomas

20110036280 - Waste processing system: A small scale integrated waste processing system for the thermal destructions of waste. The system comprises a compactor (12) for densifying waste and expressing air, a pyrolyzer (13) to receive waste delivered from the compactor, a gasifier (14) with an ash vessel (23) that receives dried waste, and an oxidizer... Agent: Connolly Bove Lodge & Hutz, LLP

20110030590 - Side feed/centre ash dump system: An apparatus for gasifying solid organic fuel includes a refractory-lined oxidation chamber, fuel storage, a transfer connecting the fuel storage with an inlet into the oxidation chamber for transferring in an upwardly inclined direction the solid fuel from the fuel storage into the inlet to form an upwardly mounded fuel... Agent: Holland & Knight LLP

20110030591 - Incineration plant with heat insulating layer on the wet slag: An incinerator including a wet slag remover for discharging combustion residues that includes a tank configured to provide a water bath having a water surface adapted to receive the combustion residues. A heat insulation layer is configured to float on the water surface. The heat insulation layer includes a plurality... Agent: Leydig, Voit & Mayer, Ltd. (frankfurt Office)

20110030592 - Additives for mercury oxidation in coal-fired power plants: The present invention is directed to an additive, primarily for low sulfur and high alkali coals, that includes a transition metal and optionally a halogen to effect mercury oxidation.... Agent: Sheridan Ross PC

20110030593 - Method for desulfurizing a fluid and methods for operating a coal combustion system: A method for desulfurizing a fluid comprising at least one sulfur compound is provided. The method includes providing an oxide composition comprising at least one byproduct oxide from a process for removing one or more impurities from coal and contacting the oxide composition with the fluid. The oxide composition reacts... Agent: Sutherland Asbill & Brennan LLP

20110030594 - Apparatus, system, and method for operating and controlling combustor for ground or particulate biomass: An apparatus, method, and system for combusting bridging fuel which includes biomass material. The apparatus includes an enclosure having a relatively thin wall defining a firebox. A combustion air manifold, and exhaust manifold, and heat exchanger are positioned along the center horizontal axis of the firebox. A fuel feed conveyor... Agent: Mckee, Voorhees & Sease, P.L.C

20110023760 - Process for using a facility for combusting carbonaceous materials and relating facility: The invention concerns a process for using a facility in which circulates at least one oxide which is reduced and then oxidized in each of both reactors (1, 4) and including a reactor (1) for reducing oxide in which enter a grounded solid fuel material (E1) and oxide (E2), a...
