A remaining portion of the oxygen after having been diluted with flue gases from the boiler supports a secondary combustion of fuel within the heat consuming device.Field of SearchPROCESS OF COMBUSTION OR BURNER OPERATIONHeating feed Distinct exhaust products line heats feed line Heated section supplied by separate diverse feeds, e.g., water and fuel, etc. HEATED LINE SECTION FEEDS FLAME HOLDER POROUS, CAPILLARY, PARTICULATE OR SIEVELIKE FLAME HOLDER, E.G., RADIANT SURFACE BURNER, ETC.
