Environmental certifications and standards for burners vary depending on factors such as burner type, fuel type, and application scenarios. Here are some common environmental certifications and standards:
Pollutant emission limit standards:
Nitrogen oxides (NOx): It is one of the main pollutants generated during the combustion process. For different types of burners and application scenarios, the nitrogen oxide emission limits are different. For example, the NOx emission value of an ordinary low-nitrogen boiler burner is usually required to be around 30 - 80 mg/m³; the NOx emission value of an ultra-low-nitrogen boiler burner needs to be below 30 mg/m³; the NOx emission value of a low-temperature natural gas kiln burner is generally around 120 - 150 mg/m³. However, if the furnace temperature is relatively high, a denitrification process may need to be added to meet environmental protection requirements.
Sulfur dioxide (SO₂): Sulfur in fuel will generate sulfur dioxide during the combustion process. There are also strict limits on the sulfur dioxide emissions of burners. Generally, the emission value is required to be as low as possible. The SO₂ emission of some burners needs to be controlled below 3 ppm.
Carbon monoxide (CO): Incomplete combustion will produce carbon monoxide, which is harmful to human health. The CO pollutant emission value of burners is usually required to be controlled at a relatively low level. For example, some standards require the CO emission value to be less than 15 ppm.
Particulates: The combustion process may generate particulates such as dust and soot. There are also corresponding standard limits for particulate emissions to reduce the impact on the environment and human health.
Energy utilization efficiency standards: Efficient energy utilization can reduce fuel consumption and pollutant emissions. Some standards will stipulate the thermal efficiency or energy utilization efficiency of burners. For example, the thermal efficiency of burners is required to reach a certain percentage to ensure the effective utilization of energy.
Environmental certifications:
CE certification: If burners are exported to the EU market, CE certification may be required. Relevant standards include mechanical safety, electrical safety, and the performance and safety requirements of the burner itself, such as EN ISO 12100:2010 (Mechanical safety - General principles for design - Risk assessment and risk reduction), EN 60204-1:2018 (Safety of machinery - Electrical equipment of machines - Part 1: General requirements), EN 676:2003+A2:2008 (Automatic forced draught burners for gaseous fuels), etc.
CCC certification: In China, commercial gas combustion appliances need to undergo CCC certification to ensure that the product quality and safety meet national requirements.
Other environmental certifications: There are also some environmental certifications for specific regions or industries, such as UL certification in the United States and CSA certification in Canada. Enterprises can choose corresponding environmental certifications according to the market demand and target customers of their own products.
In conclusion, the environmental certifications and standards for burners are to protect the environment, reduce pollution, and improve energy utilization efficiency. Enterprises need to strictly abide by relevant certification and standard requirements when producing and selling burners.
The industrial burner sector is undergoing significant transformation, driven by technological advancements, environmental considerations, and a growing demand for energy efficiency.
Industrial burners are indispensable components in sectors ranging from manufacturing to energy production. These devices convert fuel into thermal energy through controlled combustion, enabling processes like heating, melting, and power generation.
