ABSTRACT

Every avenue of development of energy-saving technologies has been pursued since the oil crises. Discussions on new technologies at the Third Conference of Parties (COP3) promoted further incentives. Even in the field of industrial furnaces, the foundation of industry, a high performance industrial furnace applying high temperature air combustion technology has reached the stage where it can be put to practical use. This innovative high performance industrial furnace is having an impact on both conventional industrial furnaces and the instrumentation control technologies for combustion in terms of reducing energy consumption.
