- new data for CO, HC, NOx, and particulate emissions, obtained in a heavy fuel oil-fired large-scale laboratory furnace, as a function of atomization quality, burner aerodynamics, air staging, reburning using methane and propane as secondary fuels, and fuel atomization using mixtures of air and methane; furnace is a cylinder of 0.6 m inside diameter and 2.4 m length; fuel characteristics; furnace operating conditions; qualitative description of the near-burner region; Air-to-Fuel Mass Ratio (AFR); air staging; reburning using methane and propane as secondary fuels; fuel atomization using mixtures of air and methane; in the direction of simultaneous reduction of NOx and particulate emissions
