Abstract
Methods and systems for improving burner, particularly ribbon burner performance, involving admixing a portion of the combustion products from the flue gas resulting from the burner to at least one of a primary and a secondary oxidizer supply to the burner. Admixing a portion of a carbon dioxide-containing flue gas combustion product formed upon combustion of a fuel gas by a ribbon burner significantly reduces NOx emissions resulting from operation of the burner.
