Combustion Control ProcessesIndustrial Combustion Control processes can be broadly split into two types -those where most of the combustion energy is removed to convert water into steam for heating or power generation (boilers) or those where other materials than water (oil or minerals) are heated directly to convert them, such as in a steel plant or on refineries (fired or process heaters). The need for combustion control is a requirement in both areas. 

The main difference from an analytical point of view is process gas temperature –around 200°C in a boiler stack but up to a 1000°C and more where less heat exchange is involved in materials conversion processes (or in a combustion chamber).

The new NEO Monitors Multicomponent LaserGas™ iQ2 can be used at process temperatures up to 1300°C.

Multi component capability with a single unit enables the best solution to reliable combustion control, not only for fuel efficiency minimisation of environmental damage, but also with measurements that can reduce maintenance and improve safety and product quality.
