adVantage® Duct Burner
A UTC Fire & Security Company
Forney’s adVantage® duct burners are
optimized for advanced gas turbines
that support the critical low emission
requirements for water or steam
injection applications.
Features & Benefits
Product Overview
•t Low CO and VOC Emissions
Up to 80% lower than recirculation type
burners - including over turndown.
•t Low Pressure Drop
Maintained through our patented design
with mixing vortices.
•t Reliable Light- off
High Energy Spark Ignition (HESI) for
consistent performance in low oxygen and
high water vapor environments.
•t No Augmenting Air Required
With TEG oxygen greater than 10.5% and
water vapor as high as 20%.
•t Investment Cast Stabilizers
Stainless steel stabilizers allow for long life
and consistent performance.
•t Vortex Shedding Analysis
Performed on each burner to ensure long
life and trouble free operation.
Duct Burners from Forney Corporation meet the complex needs of the
combined cycle and cogeneration industry. Forney’s adVantage® duct burner is the
choice for the most demanding conditions of advanced gas turbine applications,
where inlet oxygen of the Turbine Exhaust Gas (TEG) is low or the water vapor
is high.
Low inlet oxygen and high water vapor levels have typically required duct
burners to be provided with augmenting air. Forney’s adVantage® design reduces
or even removes the need for augmenting air by using an exclusive mixing process
that optimizes the existing oxygen in the turbine exhaust.
The outstanding CO and VOC emissions performance is a product of
turbulent mixing from the adVantage® duct burner design. The lower emissions
available from the Forney adVantage® duct burner can help to offset other plant
costs such as downstream emission reduction equipment.
Less sensitivity to inlet flow distribution is another benefit to the Forney
adVantage® duct burner. This means the same low emission performance even
