OVERVIEW
MICROWAVE PLASMA IGNITER
Fuel-free ignition system with plasma beam (ionized gas volume) and high ignition potential.
- Carbon-fuel-free ignition system: No fuel and no combustion air required
- Compact design
- Quickly-available ignition system to support the flexible operation of fossil-fired combustion systems
- Direct ignition of different solid fuels such as dry lignite, highly-volatile hard coal, coal dust or biomass
- Safe ignition of various gas, liquid and solid fuels
- Microwave plasma output: 1 / 3 kW
- High ignition potential: High temperature with high energy density in the ignition volume
- Any carrier medium for provision of the plasma possible (e.g. air)
- Few connections and interfaces required
- Rapid return on investment
Complete saving on ignition fuels and the necessary infrastructure. Fuel conditioning is not required, regular safety audits are not necessary. - Simple integration for incorporation into higher-level control systems and controllers
- High availability
- Low maintenance
- Wide range of applications
Can be used for other applications in the chemical industry and in thermal process plants (e.g. oxyfuel systems (carrier medium: CO₂) or oxygen-free thermal reactions)
