Rapid Mix Burner (RMB™)

The Rapid Mix Burner (RMB™) by John Zink delivers ultra-low NOx emissions with advanced mixing technology, offering a cost-effective solution for thermal oxidizers and incinerators.

Overview

Innovative Rapid Mixing Technology

John Zink’s Rapid Mix Burner (RMB™) is an advanced ultra-low NOx burner designed to achieve NOx levels once thought only possible with selective catalytic reactors (SCRs). Utilizing innovative rapid mixing technology, the RMB™ provides a reliable and cost-effective alternative for controlling NOx emissions in thermal oxidizers and incinerators. This burner is available in multiple versions, including the RMB™ and CRMB, each tailored to specific applications and performance requirements.


The RMB™ operates with a unique design that rapidly mixes combustion air and fuel gas prior to the ignition point, minimizing fuel-rich regions and reducing NOx formation. This burner features a stable flame with no moving parts, ensuring long-term reliability and reduced maintenance. The compact, short flame design eliminates refractory impingement and allows for streamlined air quality permitting and emission-reduction credits.

Features

  • Ultra-Low NOx Emissions: Achieves NOx levels as low as 0.01 lbs/MMBtu.
  • Advanced Mixing Technology: Rapidly mixes air and fuel gas to minimize NOx formation.
  • No Moving Parts: Ensures high reliability and reduced maintenance.
  • Compact Flame: Eliminates refractory impingement and reduces oxidizer dimensions.
  • TruFire UltraFlex Pilot: Provides reliable startup and complete system heat-up and curing.
  • Heat Inputs: Capable of handling up to 300 MMBtu/hr (90 MW) per burner.
  • Versatile Fuel Compatibility: Fires natural gas, hydrocarbon fuels, and light oil as backup.

Benefits

  • Cost-Effective: Offers a more affordable solution compared to SCR technologies.
  • Emission Compliance: Meets stringent NOx emission regulations.
  • Long-Term Reliability: Durable design with no moving parts ensures consistent performance.
  • Operational Flexibility: Suitable for a wide range of thermal oxidizer and incinerator applications.
  • Emission-Reduction Credits: Helps earn valuable credits for future expansions or compliance needs.
  • Enhanced Community Relations: Ultra-low emissions improve environmental impact and community standing.
