Gradual Oxidation With Adiabatic Temperature Above Flameout Temperature

US Patent:
2013023, Sep 12, 2013
Filed:
Mar 9, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/417094
Inventors:
Jeffrey ARMSTRONG - Exeter NH, US
Richard MARTIN - Manhattan Beach CA, US
Douglas HAMRIN - Laguna Niguel CA, US
Assignee:
FlexEnergy, Inc. - Irvine CA
International Classification:
F02C 7/22, F02B 45/06, B01J 19/00
US Classification:
60 3923, 422198, 123 2
Abstract:
Described herein are embodiments of systems and methods for oxidizing gases. In some embodiments, a reaction chamber is configured to receive a fuel gas and maintain the gas at a temperature within the reaction chamber that is above an autoignition temperature of the gas. The reaction chamber may also be configured to maintain a reaction temperature within the reaction chamber below a flameout temperature. In some embodiments, heat and product gases from the oxidation process can be used, for example, to drive a turbine, reciprocating engine, and injected back into the reaction chamber.
