Abstract
A burner assembly of the forced draft type includes a set of waste and oxidizer conduits which exit into the combustion zone of a combustion chamber. The combustion chamber includes a primary chamber and a secondary chamber formed by a lining of refractory within a metal housing. A nozzle is disposed at the outlet of the waste conduit to flare the spray of the fluid waste into the primary combustion chamber. The air conduits communicate with the primary combustion chamber about the periphery thereof. The nozzle end of the waste conduit causes the waste to become entrained with the combustion air moving adjacent the inner lateral walls of the primary combustion chamber. The air exiting from the plurality of air conduits is intercepted by the waste exiting from the waste conduit. The waste mixes with the air by turbulent flow, and the pressure of the air and waste creates a velocity sufficient to cause a back pressure within the primary combustion chamber.
