Duct Burners from Forney Corporation meet the complex needs of the
combined cycle and cogeneration industry. Forney’s adVantage® duct burner is the
choice for the most demanding conditions of advanced gas turbine applications,
where inlet oxygen of the Turbine Exhaust Gas (TEG) is low or the water vapor
is high.

Low inlet oxygen and high water vapor levels have typically required duct

burners to be provided with augmenting air. Forney’s adVantage® design reduces
or even removes the need for augmenting air by using an exclusive mixing process
that optimizes the existing oxygen in the turbine exhaust.

The outstanding CO and VOC emissions performance is a product of
turbulent mixing from the adVantage® duct burner design. The lower emissions
available from the Forney adVantage® duct burner can help to offset other plant
costs such as downstream emission reduction equipment.

Less sensitivity to inlet flow distribution is another benefit to the Forney

adVantage® duct burner. This means the same low emission performance even
with wide TEG flow profiles. Through the exclusive mixing process, Forney
adVantage® duct burner produces a shorter flame length for the same pressure
drop as recirculation type burners. Shorter flame lengths require less downstream
duct distance and allow a greater residence time to mix with the bulk TEG and
improve temperature distribution from the burner.

Forney’s adVantage® duct burners are

optimized for advanced gas turbines

that support the critical low emission

requirements for water or steam

injection applications.
