Axial air flow combustion
Dunphy’s patented axial air flow combustion process provides
virtually perfect air distribution to the burner head at ALL levels
of firing (including, in particular, low fire operation.) The
process also assures:
• lower fuel consumption
• inherently low NOx
Variable speed drives and energy savings
Unlike other burner designs, the air distribution in our axial air
flow burners is not adversely affected by the installation of
variable speed drives (inverters). Significant efficiency benefits
can be gained therefore by using inverters to control the speed of
burners to the levels optimally required to match air or fuel flows
(essential for maximising efficiency on steam generating
plant.)
Energy savings are twofold:
• only the absorbed power of the motor is used
• in conjunction with an axial air flow burner, inverters will
increase turndown on gas fired plant to a ratio of 10:1
Dunphy ‘T’ series axial air flow burners typically achieve turndown
ratios of:
• 10:1 on gas
• 4:1 on oil
Boiler specification
Dunphy will specify correctly dimensioned and designed boiler
shells so that maximum efficiency and lowest emissions are achieved
from the integrated plant.
We are not tied to any boiler maker and are therefore free to
specify the appropriate shell design, geometry, water flow and heat
transfer required for low NOx, high efficiency hot water or steam
generation.

Dunphy has wide experience in manufacturing, assembling,
commissioning and maintaining high efficiency, low NOx industrial
energy centres.
Whether specified for internal or external sites, Zone 1 or Zone 2
compliance, CHP or waste treatment processes, our engineering
solutions deliver consistently high fuel performance and low
emissions.
Advantages of retrofitting air pre-heat systems to boilers
Our air pre-heat burners are designed to enhance efficiencies and
save fuel and can easily be retrofitted to most types of
boiler.
As an example, a low temperature, hot water boiler fitted with a
Dunphy gas burner, economisers and an air pre-heat system will
condense around 1,150 litres of water per hour.
Some of this water can then be sprayed back into the burner air
stream. This, in turn, improves the heat transfer rate of the
boiler.

NOx reduction techniques
Provided that the geometry of the boiler is appropriate to site
operational demands (and Dunphy can advise and assist with this
specification and procurement) then our burners will recirculate
flue gases and develop the eddying currents essential for achieving
low NOx emissions.
Low temperature hot water boilers
When fitted to correctly dimensioned boilers with a given fuel type
and operating temperature and pressure, Dunphy burners can achieve
reduced NOx emissions as low as 35mg. per kWh on gas and biogas and
105mg. per kWh on gasoil at 3% oxygen. Our high levels of
competence in this area have enabled us to install many of our
burners in Switzerland and other countries with exceptionally
stringent NOx standards.
Dunphy low NOx gas burners fitted to three x 24MW high pressure hot
water boilers in Copenhagen’s district heating system achieving NOx
emissions of
65mg/m3 at 3% oxygen.
When used with a correctly dimensioned boiler, Dunphy burners are
inherently low NOx emitters due to their design characteristics
which include:
• staged combustion mitigating the formation of thermal NOx
• CFD optimised combustion head
Dunphy burners are key components for compliance with all Local
Authority, national and international
permitted NOx emissions levels.
11
Co-firing fossil and bio fuels Simultaneous firing of fuels can be
a cost effective option for low NOx heat and steam
generation.
Each fuel selected will, however, show significant differences in
volatility, reactivity, emissions and ash characteristics.
Boiler/burner design and controls must be carefully specified to
ensure the safe firing of each particular mix of fuels.
Dunphy has developed a range of Ratiotronic™ control systems and
software for managing the safe and efficient co-firing and
switching of fuels derived from fossil, bio and recovered organic
waste sources – including a dedicated channel of control for each
individual fuel.
Dunphy multifuel burners simultaneously fire natural gas and biogas
and have the capability to burn gas and gasoil.
Pre-heating liquid biofuels
Accurate temperature control of liquid biofuels is essential to
avoid swings in viscosity which result in combustion
variation.
Oil pre-heating is therefore a key functionality and is one of the
most valuable design features in Dunphy burners. This ensures that
our low carbon burners operate with consistent combustion
efficiency, high turndown ratios and low NOx emissions.
Non ferrous materials are used for all components which come in
contact with biofuels.
Dunphy multifuel systems deliver significant cost benefits of
co-firing fuels of varying volumes and calorific volumes as well as
full compliance with Directive 2000/76/EC.

Retrofitting Dunphy sequencing systems to existing plant can
typically generate between 5% and 10% fuel cost savings.
Boiler Sequencing Systems
The order in which the lag boilers are called on line is
pre-determined and linked to the operation of the nominated lead
boiler.
Each boiler within the system can be assigned its own modulation
settings to ensure that boilers of different sizes are efficiently
incorporated into the sequencing programme.
Automatic lead boiler selection ensures even operating hours across
all burners.
The ‘feed forward’ function anticipates step changes in operating
demand.
Our sequencing system can be successfully fitted to all types of
boiler or furnace fired by Dunphy or other makes of burner.
Our engineers will quickly and efficiently retrofit sequencing
systems to existing plant.
The purpose of sequencing boilers is to ensure that the desired
operating load can be met at all times in the most economical
way.
During periods of low load a single boiler can be programmed to
modulate to meet demand effectively. During peak load operations it
is more efficient to automatically bring on line a defined sequence
of boilers, at scheduled intervals, to deliver consistent heat or
steam matching the variations in load.
13
Control systems product range
Dunphy software engineers continually develop and test new products
to improve energy management processes which, in turn, contribute
significantly to enhanced safety, reduced emissions and valuable
cost savings.

Benefits of fitting Dunphy burners Compared with a new boiler
shell, a burner can be less than half the capital cost.
Yet it’s the burner not the boiler that has the major impact on
energy efficiency, fuel consumption and levels of emissions.
For example, fuel savings of up to 10% may be achieved by improving
the turndown ratio from 4:1 to 10:1 on axial air flow gas burners,
by reducing excess oxygen levels across the turndown range (2% to
3.5% on gas) and by fitting effective digital combustion controls
to maintain these key ratios across all loads.
Our single and multi fuel burners safely combust gas, oils, B5 to
B100 biodiesel, biomass, liquid biofuels and biogas derived from a
wide range of recovered organic wastes.
Dunphy burners are used worldwide in an extensive range of
applications:
• hospitals, universities, colleges, schools, large residential
properties
• CHP and District Heating Energy Centres
• waste to energy AD, gasification, other conversion
technologies
• incineration
• steelworks and foundries
Minimal retrofit downtime
Dunphy’s extensive range of burners fit all makes and types of
boiler and furnace shells.
All our burners are designed for fast and safe fitting and
commissioning by our teams of field based engineers.
Site disruption and downtime are minimal.

Off-site manufacture of modular boiler houses Dunphy prefabricated,
containerised boiler houses are manufactured and tested off-site in
our factory complex in Rochdale.
We have extensive experience in designing, building and
commissioning complete plant rooms using fossil fuels, biogas,
liquid biofuels, biodiesel and recovered organic wastes in single
or multi fuel firing combinations.
Our plant is ATEX compliant and we prepare all FDS reports, DSEAR
analyses, SIL calculations and risk assessments.
The containerised plant room shown above is a double storey unit
(7m x 9m x7m) supplying heat and steam to a Cambi thermal
hydrolysis process which uses a twin stream combination waste heat
boiler.
The biogas fired section provides 2500kg/hr of steam and is
supplemented by 586kg/hr of steam generated by the waste heat
section.
Consider a prefabricated boiler house when
• space is at a premium
• on-site construction would be expensive or disruptive
• a biofuel system is being installed to supplement an existing
traditional boiler house
• a high spec energy centre is needed for a new development
