Apparatus For Incinerating Waste Materials
US Patent:
5113770, May 19, 1992
Filed:
Jun 10, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/712578
Inventors:
Murray C. Godbe - Salt Lake City UT

Howard H. Nichols - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
F23N 500
US Classification:
110187
Abstract:
The waste incinerating system of Nichols U. S. Pat. No. 3,905,312 issued Sep. 16, 1975 is improved to prevent decreases in combustion temperature to an extent such that there is a danger of flame-out and consequent choking of the furnace chamber with wastes fed into such furnace chamber for incineration. A substantially immediately responsive, radiation sensing control, normally in the form of a standard radiation pyrometer focused on a radiation-responsive target in the furnace chamber, is incorporated in the system to augment fuel supply substantially immediately when required.
